Nordex Explosives has introduced a new service to assist existing and new clients identify potential cost savings through the use of Nordex products.

Dr. Calvin Konya, a 40-year veteran of the explosives industry and founding member, president and first executive director of the International Society of Explosives Engineers, will assist with the initiative.

Pat O'Connell has been appointed manager, product & blast optimization, to lead the implementation of the service with new and existing clients.

"This optimization program will further increase the value added services available to our clients,” said Jim Taylor, president and CEO of the Kirkland Lake-based company. “We are committed to being recognized as the leader in providing innovative and effective explosives solutions to our customers.

“Our ongoing expansion and feedback from existing customers continues to drive our team to find improved services and systems that enable users of Nordex products to achieve efficiencies in their overall operations. We anticipate this approach will generate cost savings for our consumers and lead to further expansion and increased revenues for Nordex through new opportunities to share our innovative ideas and technology."
