About Rocksplit

Gentle and targeted demolition – with expansive cement

Rocksplit is a high-performance explosive used for the gentle and controlled demolition of rock and concrete. This explosion-free blasting method is now used successfully by thousands of customers in over 50 countries. Rocksplit is the gentle and environmentally friendly alternative to conventional demolition methods. Where blasting is not permitted or desired, where chiseling represents an enormous strain for the workers or where vibrations must be avoided, our Rocksplit product offers exactly the right solution.

Our swelling explosives are set by professional specialist companies. Unlike conventional blasting work, the so-called swelling explosives do not require a blasting license or any permits. Our alternative blasting agent belongs to the so-called “non-explosive cracking agents” and is mainly used for the vibration-free blasting of rock and stone.

As a European manufacturer of swelling agents, we have been able to achieve a leading international position with our quality product. Production continues to take place at our plant in Liechtenstein. Only raw materials from Switzerland and the EU are used for our swelling explosives. Today, we are a manufacturer for countless well-known companies worldwide and produce our blasting alternatives in our own facilities as well as in a number of white labels on behalf of customers.

Rocksplit has a very good durability of at least 5 years. Rocksplit consists mainly of burnt lime and is therefore very environmentally friendly. After a reaction time of just a few hours, Rocksplit develops an enormous expansion pressure, which is soon so high that any hard rock gives way and is pressed apart.

Compared to conventional blasting methods, Rocksplit works practically silently, without vibration and without flying fragments.
