Bitumen 70-100
Bitumen Penetration Grade 70/100 is a semi-soft petroleum grade bitumen widely used in road construction and industrial applications. Due to its higher penetration value, it provides excellent flexibility, superior adhesive properties, and enhanced workability during asphalt mixing.
This grade is especially suitable for moderate climates, ensuring optimum performance in binder and surface layers under normal traffic conditions.
