Ministry of Industry and Information Technology: Increase industrial concentration and encourage civil explosive companies to carry out reorganization and integration in accordance with the law and regulations.

The Ministry of Industry and Information Technology has issued the "14th Five-Year Plan for the Safety Development of the Civil Explosives Industry." It proposes optimizing the industrial structure, increasing industry concentration, and encouraging civil explosives companies to lawfully and in accordance with regulations implement restructuring and integration. It supports civil explosive enterprise groups to extend along the upstream and downstream of the industrial chain, deepening the integrated development of scientific research, production, and blasting services, improving the collaborative level of the entire industrial chain, and strengthening competitive advantages. It encourages the establishment of regional sales platforms, gradually phasing out sales companies with low safety levels and insufficient safety investments, and guiding poorly managed companies with poor safety conditions to exit the market in an orderly manner.
