Premium Penetration Grade Bitumen in Brazil
What is Penetration Bitumen?
Penetration Bitumen is a petroleum-based asphalt binder widely used in road construction and pavement engineering. It is produced during the refining of crude oil and graded according to its penetration value, which measures the hardness and consistency of the material under standard testing conditions. This grading system helps engineers select the right bitumen for different climates, traffic volumes, and pavement designs.
As the primary binder in hot mix asphalt, penetration grade bitumen provides strong adhesion between mineral aggregates, creating durable, waterproof, and long-lasting road surfaces. Its balanced combination of strength and flexibility helps reduce rutting, cracking, and moisture damage, making it suitable for highways, urban roads, airport pavements, industrial areas, and infrastructure projects across Brazil.
Tiger Bitumen supplies premium penetration-grade bitumen that is manufactured under strict quality control to ensure consistent penetration values, excellent workability, and dependable pavement performance. Whether your project requires a harder grade for heavy traffic or a softer grade for greater flexibility, our complete product range offers reliable solutions for every construction requirement.
How Penetration Bitumen is Manufactured
Penetration Bitumen is produced through a carefully controlled refining process using selected crude oil. After lighter petroleum products are separated during refining, the remaining heavy residue is processed to achieve the required penetration grade. Throughout production, strict quality control measures ensure consistent hardness, durability, and performance.
Each batch undergoes laboratory testing to verify key properties such as penetration value, softening point, ductility, flash point, viscosity, and solubility. These tests ensure the bitumen complies with recognised international specifications before it is supplied to customers.
Brazil Bitumen – Tiger Bitumen follows rigorous quality assurance procedures throughout the manufacturing and export process, delivering Penetration-grade bitumen that offers reliable workability, excellent aggregate adhesion, and long-lasting pavement performance for infrastructure projects across Brazil.
HY International has the capability to Export and Supply the different Grades of Penetration Bitumen in compliance with National and International standards.

Penetration Grades Bitumen FAQs
Penetration Grades Bitumen is a petroleum-based binder classified according to its penetration value, which measures the hardness or softness of the bitumen. It is widely used in road construction, asphalt paving, and infrastructure projects.
Common Penetration Grades Bitumen include 30/40, 40/50, 50/70, 60/70, 80/100, 85/100, and 100/120. Each grade is designed for different climatic conditions and engineering requirements.
Penetration Grade 60/70 Bitumen is one of the most widely used grades for highway construction, urban roads, airport pavements, and heavy traffic asphalt applications.
Penetration Grades Bitumen is tested using standardized laboratory methods, including penetration value, softening point, ductility, viscosity, flash point, and specific gravity to ensure consistent quality.
Penetration Grades Bitumen is classified based on penetration value, while Viscosity Grade Bitumen is classified according to its viscosity. Both are used in asphalt production but follow different international specifications.
Lower penetration grades such as 30/40 and 40/50 are generally preferred for hot climates because they provide better resistance to rutting and deformation under high temperatures.
Grades such as 60/70 and 80/100 are commonly used in regions with moderate temperatures, providing a balance between flexibility and durability.
Penetration Grades Bitumen is widely used in road construction, airport runways, highways, bridges, parking areas, industrial pavements, and infrastructure development projects.
Penetration Grades Bitumen can be supplied in new steel drums, jumbo bags, bulk tankers, bitutainers, and other export packaging based on customer requirements.
Yes. We export premium-quality Penetration Grades Bitumen to customers worldwide, including Brazil, South America, Africa, the Middle East, and Asia.
