BME WINS INDUSTRY AWARD FOR SAFE DISPOSAL OF USED OIL
Omnia group company BME has been recognised by the Chemical and Allied Industries’ Association (CAIA) for its contribution to a cleaner environment – winning the CAIA Responsible Care Initiative of the Year Award, in the company projects: Category A segment. The award was for BME’s incorporation of used oil as a base product for its emulsion explosives, removing the risk that this oil could contaminate water or soil. Ramesh Dhoorgapersadh, BME’s general manager for safety, health, environment and quality, says the initiative reflects the company’s close collaboration with customers – where used oil from large mining customers is also collected and used for repurposing and responsible disposal through the blasting process. These partnerships have been initiated in Africa and are being rolled out to BME’s global network of operations.
