The modern mining industry operates in challenging environments: remote sites, extreme weather conditions, logistical constraints, and increasingly stringent safety and environmental protection requirements.
In response to these challenges, Pronal brings its know-how and recognized expertise to design flexible solutions tailored to extreme conditions.
Fuel, water and chemical storage on mining sites
Fluid management is a strategic challenge in any mining operation. On remote or temporary sites, it is essential to have flexible, reliable and quick-to-deploy storage solutions.
Pronal flexible tanks allow for:
-
Fuel storage from 1 to 500 m³
-
Chemical containment up to 1,000 m³
Resistant from –30 °C to +70 °C, they provide a cost-effective and durable alternative for mining sites.
Sealing and environmental protection of mining pipelines
Leaks in pipelines or mining infrastructure pose a major risk to the environment and to personnel safety.
Pronal develops inflatable sealing and containment solutions, including OPAP pollution control plugs and flexible retention tanks, designed for :
-
temporary or emergency pipeline closure
-
safe pipeline maintenance operations
-
retention and containment of polluting liquids
Pronal OPAP inflatable pipe plugs enable rapid pipe sealing in the event of an incident, while flexible retention tanks ensure immediate fluid containment, reducing contamination risks and strengthening environmental compliance for mining operations.
Inflatable barriers for mining operations
Inflatable mine barriers are high-strength inflatable ventilation stoppings designed to seal underground mine galleries in order to control ventilation, isolate work areas, or limit the spread of smoke and hazardous gases. They provide an effective solution for enhancing safety during mining operations.
Used for maintenance work, emergency response, or ventilation circuit management, inflatable barriers provide reliable sealing of underground galleries. Their design meets the demands of the most challenging mining environments while helping protect personnel on site.
Trench and excavation safety: inflatable trench shield, Smartshore®
Excavation work in mining environments requires maximum safety. The Smartshore® system is an innovative inflatable trench shield designed to quickly stabilize trench walls.
Lighter and faster to install than traditional mechanical systems, it enhances operator safety while reducing on-site intervention time. It is ideal for temporary excavations and confined spaces.
Heavy lifting in mining environments
Maintenance and recovery operations require compact and powerful equipment. Pronal air lifting bags offer capacities ranging from 1 to 330 tons.
Designed for hard-to-access areas, they enable precise and safe lifting of heavy loads in confined environments, while ensuring performance and reliability.
