What is Dexpan?

Dexpan is a non-explosive controlled demolition agent that comes in powder form.

When mixed with water and poured into pre-drilled holes Dexpan generates an incredible 18,000 PSI expansive force that breaks concrete and rock safely and cost effectively with no noise, vibration or dust.
