Bitumen PG 52
Cold climate bitumen designed to resist low-temperature cracking (min temp -28°C). Ideal for export to CIS countries and Eastern Europe.
PG 52 is the standard winter grade for regions with heavy snowfall and freeze-thaw cycles. It balances durability with low-temperature flexibility.
Key Technical Advantages:
Freeze-Thaw Resistance: Specifically formulated to handle the internal stress caused by water freezing and melting within road layers.
Low-Temperature Flexibility: Remains elastic at temperatures as low as -28°C, preventing brittle fractures and potholes.
Standard Infrastructure Grade: Widely used for highways and urban roads in Eastern Europe and the Caucasus.
Durability: Provides a long-lasting binder that resists deformation under moderate traffic loads in cool climates.
Technical Notes:
Logistics: Efficient overland transport via Trucking to Armenia and Georgia, and maritime shipping to Black Sea ports.
Packaging: Available in New Steel Drums (180kg/210kg) and Jumbo Bags (Polymer-lined) for safe handling in cold storage.
Compliance: Guaranteed to meet AASHTO M320 and ASTM D6373 specifications for Performance Grade Bitumen.
Storage: Should be stored in insulated tanks to maintain optimal properties for high-performance application.
