Oxidized Bitumen 90/15 Export Grade for Waterproofing & Industrial Applications

Oxidized Bitumen 90/15 is a hard grade blown bitumen designed for applications where high thermal stability, shape retention, and long service life are required. Due to its low penetration and controlled softening point, this grade is widely used in industrial waterproofing systems and protective coatings, especially in regions with warm to hot climates.

Its performance characteristics make it a preferred choice for export-oriented infrastructure and industrial projects.

Main Applications of Oxidized Bitumen 90/15

Oxidized Bitumen 90/15 is commonly used in:

• Waterproofing membranes and damp proofing systems

• Pipe coating and corrosion protection layers

• Industrial and hydraulic construction projects

• Expansion joint fillers and rigid mastics

• Asphalt based paints and protective coatings

• Portland cement pavement protection

• Industrial insulation and lining systems

This grade is selected when material stability is more important than flexibility, particularly in long-term outdoor exposure.

Why Oxidized Bitumen 90/15 Is Suitable for Export Markets

Oxidized Bitumen 90/15 is well-suited for international supply due to:

• Stable performance under high ambient temperatures

• Low risk of deformation during storage and transport

• Compatibility with standard packaging formats

• Long shelf life when properly stored

• Wide acceptance in international specifications

These characteristics make it attractive for infrastructure-driven and industrial economies.

Major Importing Regions & Markets

Oxidized 90/15 is commonly exported to regions with high demand for waterproofing and corrosion protection:

• Middle East – strong demand for pipe coating, waterproofing, and industrial projects

• Africa – infrastructure development, road protection, and hydraulic works

• South Asia – construction, waterproofing membranes, and industrial coatings

• Southeast Asia – roofing, insulation, and protective applications

Typical importing countries include India, United Arab Emirates, Saudi Arabia, Nigeria, Kenya, Vietnam, and Bangladesh.

Demand in these markets is driven by climate conditions, infrastructure growth, and the need for durable waterproofing solutions.

Packaging & Export Formats

For international shipments, Bitumen 90/15 is typically supplied in:

• 25 kg carton boxes

• 50 kg meltable plastic bags

• Steel drums

• Bulk shipments for project-based supply

Packaging can be adapted to customer and destination requirements.

Export Focused Performance Summary

Oxidized 90/15 offers:

• Reliable performance in hot and humid climates

• Consistent quality for large-volume projects

• Strong resistance to water and environmental exposure

• Cost-effective solution for long-term protection systems

These advantages position it as a competitive product in global bitumen export markets.
