The business segment Mining represents one of DSI’s major business fields.

Global economic growth has resulted in a steady rise in the need for more natural resources. Consequently, the search for and exploitation of natural resources occupy a central position worldwide. DSI is aware of this steadily increasing demand for natural resources and is therefore constantly developing its mining business in order to satisfy its clients’ needs.

One of the DSI companies which is active in the mining sector and renowned for its quality products is Fasloc Inc., headquartered in Martinsburg, USA. Fasloc manufactures polyester resin cartridges which permanently secure roof support bolts used in mines to create stable and secure roofs.

DSI’s innovations, product improvements and service have taken the mining industry another step forward in terms of efficiency and safety. In fact, the mining industry is much safer today as a result of the use of roof bolts anchored with resin cartridges which were pioneered by the DSI-company Fasloc.
