There is nothing more important in a mine than air: talented Russian entrepreneur Evgeny Grebenshchikov helmed the design and developed a unique self-contained protective device for miners

As the founder and CEO of an industry leader in the manufacture of next-generation protective equipment for miners, Evgeny is involved in the design, development, and sale of high-tech mining equipment that improves safety in the industry.

Evgeny’s company offers a full range of mine rescue equipment and PPE for people working in underground mines. The company’s catalog includes:

●      industry-grade and civilian self-contained self-rescue devices and charging stations for them;

●      respirators;

●      de-gassing equipment, methanometers, and anemometers;

●      fire safety solutions etc.

The implemented solutions of Evgeny have earned the trust of major companies in the industries and are recognized by industry experts not just in Russia but in other countries as well.

One such innovative product which design was developed and implemented by Evgeny is a resource monitoring device that tracks the amount of oxygen remaining in a self-contained self-rescue device. Its importance for miner safety could hardly be overestimated. Evgeny and his team spent a long five years designing and refining the monitoring device. Today it’s a completely unique product, one of its kind in the world. Prior to the release of the RMD, nobody was able to offer a solution that could accurately track the remaining supply of oxygen in self-rescue systems. Evgeny’s invention helped solve one of the most important problems in the mining industry. Under Evgeny’s guidance, his team managed to solve the problem and make a true breakthrough in the safety of miners.

The oxygen tracking device invented by Evgeny and implemented by his team keeps track of the remaining supply of chemically bound oxygen in a self-contained self-rescue device, accurately predicting the service time of the self-rescue device, and displaying the information on a special panel.

The carefully crafted and truly unique solution was made possible by Evgeny’s intimate understanding of the production processes and problems that exist in the industry. Every minute that a miner can keep breathing in an emergency can save their life. The accurate monitoring of the oxygen supply implemented in the unique resource monitoring device is a long-awaited innovation that nobody had been able to implement before.

The monitoring sensor can help save the lives of millions of miners around the world as when you’re working deep underground there is nothing more important than knowing exactly how much air you’ve got left in an emergency.

The device is compatible with practically every type of self-contained self-rescue device manufactured in the world and as soon as it was publicly presented for the first time there was a lot of interest in it in the mining and coal industries.

Evgeny’s company manufactures highly complex mining equipment, however, it does not manufacture the innovative products developed by its CEO Evgeny Grebenshchikov. In addition to his ability to offer innovative solutions, Evgeny has unique management and business skills that allow him to successfully organize business and production processes that make Evgeny’s company a leading manufacturer of highly complex and innovative mining equipment in the CIS.
