Orica is a global publicly-owned Australia-based company with operations in nearly 50 countries and customers in twice that many. Orica’s proud traditions of leadership, innovation, quality and safety are shared by its 15,000 employees across six continents.
Orica has evolved from a supplier of explosives to the Victorian gold fields in 19th Century Australia into a multi-billion dollar company that is currently ranked as one of the top 40 companies listed on the Australian Stock Exchange based on market capitalisation.
Orica turns science into the solutions that satisfy basic human needs. Each of its businesses – Orica Mining Services, Minova, Orica Chemicals and Orica Consumer Products - is the leader in its chosen market and enjoys a world class reputation.
Orica is the global market leader in its largest business, Orica Mining Services, and the Australian market leader in its Orica Consumer Products and Orica Chemicals businesses.
