Introduction
Sudan has an emerging infrastructure and mixed climatic conditions, so high-quality bitumen is needed for road construction, waterproofing, and industrial applications. As one of the leading Bitumen Supplier in Sudan, we provide higher-quality bitumen according to international quality standards to ensure strength and effectiveness in each type of project.
Bitumen Grades We Supply
60/70
One of the most used penetration-grade bitumen, Bitumen 60/70 is ideal for use in constructing roads in areas with moderate to high temperatures. It possesses satisfactory adhesion and viscosity, resulting in durable road surfaces that can withstand Sudan’s hot climate, reducing the maintenance requirement.
80/100
This lower-grade bitumen is more elastic, and it is best used in lower-temperature zones as well as applications with greater elasticity demands. Bitumen 80/100 is usually used on light-traffic roads, asphalt road mixtures, and maintenance work, offering more flexibility to Sudan’s varying weather conditions.
40/50
For heavy duty roads and busy pavements, Bitumen 40/50 provides better stiffness and resilience. Due to the hot and dry climate of Sudan, it is commonly used in highways and principal urban roads to resist rutting and deformation over the years.
Principal Uses in Sudan
Construction & Maintenance of Roads
Bitumen is a fundamental raw material in road infrastructure, offering greater strength and resistance to weathering. It is used in highway, rural road, and urban road construction to weather the high heat variations of Sudan and offer long-lasting performance with minimal maintenance.
Asphalt Production
Bitumen is among the key ingredients used to produce hot mix asphalt (HMA). This high-quality material assists in creating road surfaces, airport runways, and parking lots that are smooth and long-lasting. Asphalt plants in Sudan rely on it to ensure uniformity and quality pavements.
Industrial & Commercial Applications
Apart from road construction, bitumen has myriad applications in various industries including:
Waterproofing: Its application in ensuring water out-flow from buildings, bridges, and tunnels.
Roofing: Applied in manufacturing of bitumen-based roofing membranes for durable and weather-resistant buildings.
Pipe Coating: Used to coat underground pipelines and industrial establishments as an anti-corrosive coating.
Adhesives & Sealants: Used in manufacturing of industrial adhesives, joint fillers, and protective coatings.
Significant Seaports for Imports of Bitumen
We support a smooth supply chain through Sudan’s main seaports with timely delivery and uninterrupted project performance:
- Port Sudan
- Suakin Port
- Ossif Port
- Aqiq Port
Bitumen-Based Waterproofing Solutions
Because of heavy seasonal rains in the majority of Sudan’s regions, waterproofing using bitumen is necessary to prevent water damage in structures. Our bitumen has widespread uses in:
Roofing membranes : Enhancing leak protection in buildings and homes.
Foundation coatings : Avoiding water entry in below-ground structures.
Tunnel & bridge protection : Ensuring long-term integrity of critical transport networks.
Price of Bitumen in Sudan
The price of bitumen in Sudan is influenced by several key factors, including fluctuations in crude oil prices, ocean freight costs, the price of vacuum bottom (VB), and the type of packaging used. Among the different bitumen grades, the price of bitumen 60/70 serves as the benchmark, as it is the lowest and forms the base price for other grades. The price of cutback bitumen, on the other hand, depends on the cost of its primary raw materials.
Our payment Term
Our terms of payment are TT/30% in advance and balance after a copy of BL. This secures 30% of the payment in advance while the remaining balance is settled when a copy of the Bill of Lading has been availed, ensuring goods are in transit and well documented.
