Overview

Flexible and easy to work

Bitumen 100/120 is a softer grade with a higher penetration range, giving improved flexibility and workability. It resists cracking when temperatures drop.

It suits roads in temperate and cooler regions, surface dressing and flexible asphalt mixes, and can be polymer-modified where higher performance is needed.

Black Rock Bitumen supplies Bitumen 100/120 from Dubai to contractors and EPC companies across Africa, Asia and the Middle East.

  • High flexibility
  • Better resistance to low-temperature cracking
  • Easy workability
  • Good adhesion to aggregate
  • Can be polymer-modified for higher performance
