Bitumen is a thick, tar-like substance derived from crude oil or found naturally in tar sands. It is sticky, black, and a highly viscous form of petroleum. It is a key ingredient in asphalt, the material commonly used to surface roads, parking lots, and driveways. It creates durable road surfaces. Bitumen acts as a binding agent, holding together the aggregate (crushed stone, sand, and gravel) in asphalt mixtures.

In addition to its use in road construction, bitumen is also used in waterproofing applications, such as roofing, in the production of certain sealants and adhesives and many other industrial applications. Its waterproof properties and durability make it ideal for protecting surfaces from moisture and wear. Its thick, adhesive properties make it ideal for projects that require long-lasting protection and strength.

A bitumen filling station is the only way to fill bitumen in HydroCube. The polyethylene film used in HydroCube is in line with the requirements of the bitumen industry.

Bitumen can be shipped in both compact and stable HydroCube. There are multiple factors such as mode of transportation, type of equipment, weight limits in deciding on the optimal type. Please contact us to determine which type would suit your project better.
