BITUMEN VG 30

Bitumen VG 30 technical details

This kind of Bitumen will grade according to its viscosity and because of that its name would be including VG its viscosity will test at a temperature of 60 C°, its Penetration would be 50-70 and its flash point would be 220 C°.

Bitumen VG 30 is a viscosity grade paving bitumen designed to deliver dependable performance in modern road construction. Its carefully controlled viscosity provides the ideal balance between workability during application and long term pavement strength, making it a preferred material for highways, expressways, urban streets, airport runways, and industrial pavements.

One of the main advantages of VG 30 is its excellent resistance to rutting and deformation under continuous traffic loading. The binder maintains its structural integrity even in demanding service conditions, helping roads retain their smooth surface and load bearing capacity for extended periods. Its strong adhesive characteristics ensure firm bonding with aggregates, creating dense asphalt mixtures that resist stripping and moisture damage.

VG 30 also offers outstanding durability against oxidation, weather exposure, and aging. These properties help reduce maintenance requirements while extending pavement life. Its flexibility allows the asphalt layer to accommodate moderate thermal expansion and contraction, minimizing the risk of premature cracking when proper pavement design and construction practices are followed.

During asphalt production, Bitumen VG 30 provides consistent mixing, coating, and compaction characteristics. This improves paving efficiency, enhances surface uniformity, and contributes to high quality finished roads. Its waterproof nature further protects pavement structures by preventing water infiltration that can weaken the underlying layers.

Manufactured under strict quality control, Aras Petrochemical Company’s Bitumen VG 30 is produced to meet international specifications, ensuring consistent viscosity, reliable performance, and uniform quality in every shipment. The product is suitable for a wide range of infrastructure projects where durability, strength, excellent aggregate adhesion, and long-lasting pavement performance are essential.

Bitumen VG 30 is widely used as a high performance paving binder in infrastructure projects that require durable, stable, and long lasting asphalt surfaces. Its balanced viscosity and excellent binding properties make it suitable for both new road construction and pavement rehabilitation across a wide range of climatic conditions.

One of the primary applications of VG 30 is the construction of national highways, expressways, and major arterial roads carrying medium to heavy traffic. The binder provides strong aggregate cohesion, helping asphalt pavements resist rutting, deformation, and surface wear caused by continuous vehicle loads.

Municipal roads, city streets, residential developments, and commercial access roads also benefit from the reliable performance of Bitumen VG 30. It produces smooth pavement surfaces with good structural stability, contributing to safer and more comfortable transportation networks.

The product is frequently used in airport infrastructure, including runways, taxiways, and aprons, where high-quality asphalt mixtures are essential to withstand repeated aircraft movements and demanding operational conditions. Industrial facilities, logistics centers, ports, container terminals, and warehouse complexes also utilize VG 30 for pavements exposed to heavy equipment and constant traffic.

In addition to road paving, Bitumen VG 30 is suitable for bridge approaches, parking areas, service stations, bus terminals, and pavement maintenance programs. It is commonly incorporated into hot mix asphalt produced in modern asphalt plants, ensuring consistent coating of aggregates and efficient compaction during construction.

Aras Petrochemical Company’s Bitumen VG 30 is manufactured under strict quality control to deliver dependable performance, excellent durability, and consistent paving results, making it a trusted solution for government agencies, contractors, infrastructure developers, and asphalt producers worldwide.

Packing of This type of bitumen VG  would be 180 kg new steel drums.
