Bitumen grade 10/20
Bitumen 10/20 is a type of high-quality bitumen produced through non-destructive refining of crude oil during petroleum refining. Carbokim, specifically designed for paving, is ideal for road construction, repair, and asphalt pavement production. This penetration grade bitumen offers long-term savings by allowing thinner pavement designs, reducing asphalt usage by up to 30% compared to traditional methods. Its versatility makes it a popular choice for road projects and the manufacture of hot mix asphalt for durable bases and wearing courses.
