Bitumen 30/45

Introduction to Bitumen 30/45

Bitumen 30/45 is a standard penetration grade bitumen used widely for road construction and repairs. It also serves as a raw material for producing superior paving grades. With thermoplastic properties, this bitumen softens at high temperatures and hardens at low temperatures, making it suitable for diverse applications. The stiffness of Grade 30/45 depends on the crude oil type and refining method. This semi-hard penetration grade is particularly popular for manufacturing asphalt pavements, hot mix asphalt, and wearing courses. Additionally, it is a core material for producing other bituminous products.
