The heavy binder at the bottom of the barrel — the residue that holds asphalt together and waterproofs the built environment.
Penetration, viscosity and performance grades — from 60/70 and VG-10 to polymer-modified bitumen for heavy traffic and temperature extremes.
Blended with aggregate it becomes asphalt — the surface of most of the world's roads, runways and hard-standing — and on its own a durable waterproofing material. Demand tracks infrastructure spending.
Penetration, softening point, ductility and viscosity — the grade matched to the local climate and job specification.
