Bitumen Enamel – Petro Gold Refinery
Bitumen Enamel is one of the most reliable and widely used protective coatings in the oil, gas, and construction industries. Manufactured by Petro Gold Refinery in Bandar Abbas, Iran, this high-quality enamel is designed to provide exceptional resistance against corrosion, moisture, and mechanical stress. With full compliance to BS 4147:1980, BS 4164:1980, and ASTM international standards, our Bitumen Enamel has become a leading export product for global infrastructure projects.
General Description of Bitumen Enamel
Bitumen Enamel is a thermoplastic material manufactured from a blend of specially refined petroleum bitumen, mineral fillers, and stabilizers. It is black, glossy, and highly adhesive when hot-applied. Once cooled, it forms a hard, durable, and impermeable coating layer. This makes it ideal for protecting steel pipelines, tanks, underwater structures, and industrial equipment. Our refinery ensures that every batch is tested under SGS, ISO, and ASTM certifications before shipment.
Applications of Bitumen Enamel
- Pipeline coating for oil, gas, and water transmission
- Protective lining for steel tanks and reservoirs
- Insulation layer in underground and marine structures
- Corrosion protection for offshore and coastal installations
- Industrial waterproofing for concrete and metal structures
