Though Incitec Pivot is Australia's largest producer of fertilizers, it plans to get even bigger by blowing things up.

The company was formed in 2003 through the merger of fertilizer makers Incitec and Pivot; Orica had owned 70% of Incitec Pivot until it sold that majority stake in 2006. Two years later Incitec Pivot bought explosives maker (and direct rival to Orica) Dyno Nobel for $3 billion.
