Bitumen Grades We Support
Bitumen grade selection depends on project type, climate, traffic load, application method, and technical standards. Yakut Trade can support buyers with commonly demanded penetration-grade bitumen for road and infrastructure projects.
Bitumen 60/70
Bitumen 60/70 is a harder paving-grade binder commonly used in hot climates, heavy-traffic roads, highways, airport runways, industrial yards, and infrastructure projects where rutting resistance matters.
This grade is often preferred in markets across the Middle East, Africa, South Asia, and warm-climate regions.
Bitumen 80/100
Bitumen 80/100 is a softer and more flexible grade selected for cooler regions, lighter traffic conditions, and applications where low-temperature flexibility is more important.
Buyers should compare climate, road design, expected traffic load, and local tender requirements before choosing between 60/70 and 80/100.

Bitumen Technical Specifications
Technical requirements for bitumen may vary based on the project, destination country, road authority standards, and contracted specification. Buyers should always confirm batch-specific values through product documents and third-party inspection before shipment.
| Parameter | Bitumen 60/70 | Bitumen 80/100 |
|---|---|---|
| Penetration at 25°C | 60 – 70 dmm | 80 – 100 dmm |
| Relative Hardness | Harder / stiffer | Softer / more flexible |
| Common Application | Highways, runways, hot climates | Cooler regions, flexible paving needs |
| Main Performance Advantage | Rutting resistance | Thermal flexibility |
| Supply Format | Drums / bulk / bags | Drums / bulk / bags |
Procurement note: A bitumen grade name is not enough for serious purchasing. Buyers should request the full technical specification, Certificate of Quality, Certificate of Analysis, origin documents, and inspection report before confirming shipment.
Main Applications of Bitumen
Bitumen is used across construction, transport infrastructure, waterproofing, and industrial applications. The right grade depends on temperature exposure, traffic load, pavement design, and local technical standards.
Road Construction
Used in asphalt production for highways, urban roads, arterial roads, and general pavement construction.
Airport Runways
Selected for high-load pavement areas where durability, stability, and deformation resistance are important.
Industrial Surfaces
Applied in ports, logistics yards, parking areas, industrial zones, and heavy-duty loading surfaces.
Waterproofing
Used in membranes, roofing systems, foundation protection, and moisture-resistant construction materials.
Bitumen Packaging & Global Shipment
Bitumen can be supplied in different formats depending on the buyer’s storage facilities, destination port, application method, and handling requirements. Common supply options include new steel drums, bulk shipments, jumbo bags, poly bags, and containerized delivery.
