Each year, more than 2,000 unexploded ordnance (UXO) from the WW2 are still discovered in the Netherlands alone, ranging from small-caliber ammunition to sea mines and aerial bombs. These remnants of war pose serious safety, financial and scheduling risks to construction projects. In the past, unexpected UXO findings have repeatedly caused delays and uncertainty on projects. Bombs Away helps prevent such disruptions by identifying and managing UXO risks at an early stage, safeguarding personnel while protecting project timelines and budgets.

Bombs Away is an independent consultancy company specializing in historical research and UXO risk assessment. We do not conduct field surveys, ensuring our work remains fully objective. Combined with our extensive experience in the UXO industry, this independence allows us to deliver clear, reliable, and evidence-based insights.

From onshore sites to complex offshore environments, our methodical approach enables clients to proactively manage UXO risks and move forward with confidence.
