Functional Bitumen PG70-10

Applications of PG 70-10 Bitumen

PG 70-10 is a Performance Grade bitumen (PG) specifically designed for regions with very hot summers and mild winters. This grade offers high resistance to deformation, rutting, and softening at elevated temperatures and is commonly used in heavy-duty projects such as highways and airports in hot climates. Therefore, PG 70-10 is ideal for areas where:

• Asphalt surfaces become extremely hot in summer (e.g., hot and dry or humid regions with intense sunlight)
• Winters are relatively mild and not very cold

Typical projects using PG 70-10 include:

• Highways and major roads in hot regions
• Airports and runways
• Industrial roads with heavy loads
• Projects requiring high durability under heat
• Busy urban roads in hot climates
