Introduction Malaysia is now a key producer and supplier of oxidized bitumen or blown asphalt in recent years. It is a superior quality special type of bitumen manufactured by an oxidization process, and this makes a stronger and more flexible bitumen material utilized across various applications, with significant application areas being the construction industry, road […]

Oxidized Bitumen Price The price of oxidized bitumen in 25kg PP bags, palletized and shrink-wrapped, varies based on market conditions, raw material costs, and shipping expenses. At ZUMRUT INT Co., we ensure competitive pricing with high-quality standards, making our product suitable for various industrial applications, including waterproofing, road construction, and roofing. In the following article, […]

Introduction PG bitumen application plays a crucial role in modern infrastructure, providing a high-quality asphalt binder designed to meet specific performance requirements under varying temperatures and traffic conditions. Unlike traditional grading systems, Performance Grade (PG) bitumen is classified based on its ability to resist rutting, fatigue, and thermal cracking in a given climate. This ensures […]

Introduction to Cutback Asphalt Cutback asphalt is a modified form of asphalt binder produced by mixing conventional bitumen with a volatile solvent. This addition lowers the viscosity of the bitumen, enabling it to be applied at much lower temperatures compared to traditional hot mix asphalt. This property makes cutback asphalt particularly suitable for road construction, […]

Introduction Asphalt emulsion plays a vital role in modern road construction, waterproofing, and industrial coatings due to its cost-effectiveness and eco-friendly properties. It is a water-based mixture composed of bitumen, water, and emulsifying agents, allowing for uniform application without the need for heating. This cold-applied solution reduces energy consumption, minimizes environmental impact, and ensures safe […]

What is Oxidized Bitumen? Oxidized Bitumen Export to Southeast Asia is increasingly important due to the region’s growing infrastructure needs. Oxidized bitumen, also known as blown bitumen, is a high-class product of the process in which air has been introduced into hot bitumen. This increases its softening point and resistance to water and chemical attack, […]

Intro of Blown Asphalt Blown Asphalt is produced by the Continuous or Staggered Blowing Process, where hot Penetration Grade Bitumen is blown in controlled conditions through the air in order to regulate oil content and oxidation. The resulting product has increased rubbery properties, making it more hard than its parent material. Blown Asphalt has overall […]

Intro Understanding the key differences in slurry seal vs. micro surfacing can help you choose the best pavement treatment for durability and performance. As asphalt ages and deteriorates, the treatment changes, resulting in higher treatment and repair costs. Luckily, micro surfacing and slurry sealing are pavement resurfacing techniques that can extend the life of your […]

What is Sealcoating? Seal coating is a method of protective maintenance to asphalt. The process entails putting a thin, liquid layer on top of the paved surface. It acts like a barrier in protecting the asphalt from potential UV rays damage, rain, snow, and different types of vehicle fluids. This seal coat application does not […]

Introduction Micro-surfacing is one of the most rapid methods for asphalt maintenance, which is widely used across Western Canada. The process itself is a mixture of polymer-modified asphalt emulsion, 100% manufactured aggregates, Portland cement, water, and liquid additives. A mixture is made based on technical specifications and laboratory mix design. Because it sets so fast, […]
