Paving bitumen 90/130
Penetration 90–130 — highly ductile and easy to apply for urban roads and cooler climates
Penetration-grade bitumen 90/130 — a softer grade with excellent ductility, imported from trusted refineries in the Middle East, Singapore and South Korea. Highly flexible with good adhesion to aggregate, 90/130 suits urban roads, inter-provincial routes and cooler climates, while remaining easy to pump, heat and apply. Bulk supply for asphalt plants and key projects with an end-to-end logistics chain: heated storage, hot tanker trucks and on-schedule delivery.
Key advantages
- High hardness resists deep rutting and wheel tracking at high temperatures — suited to Vietnam's hot, humid climate
- Imported directly from refineries in the Middle East, Singapore and South Korea — stable supply all year round
- Heated depots in three regions with thousands of tonnes of capacity, ready to supply on your project schedule
- Every shipment comes with full test certificates from our reference laboratory
- Optimal balance of hardness and flexibility — suited to most of Vietnam's climate and traffic conditions
- The most common penetration grade for Vietnam transport projects, compliant with TCVN 8860:2017
- Heated storage tanks and specialized tanker trucks carrying the Asphalt Solutions brand — a closed logistics chain across three regions
- Every shipment comes with full test certificates from our reference laboratory
- Penetration-grade 60/70 quality to TCVN 8860:2017 / ASTM D946 — Vietnam's most common grade
- New 200-litre steel drums, ≈ 180 kg net per drum to the export packing standard
- Easy to transport, handle and store at sites without heated storage
- Every shipment comes with full test certificates from our reference laboratory
- High ductility and good aggregate adhesion — a seamless pavement with fewer thermal cracks
- Easy to pump, heat and apply — ideal for high-capacity asphalt plants
- Heated depots in three regions with thousands of tonnes of capacity, ready to supply on your project schedule
- Every shipment comes with full test certificates from our reference laboratory
- Resists wheel tracking and deep rutting at high temperatures — the solution for Vietnam's hot, humid climate
- Elastic recovery above 70%, handling repeated heavy loads far better than penetration-grade bitumen
- Extends pavement life and significantly reduces maintenance costs over the project life cycle
- Standards-compliant storage stability — no polymer separation during transport and heating
- Applied at ambient temperature — no mixing plant or heating equipment required
- Penetrates deep into the crushed-stone base, creating a strong bonded foundation before paving
- A full range of RC and MC grades covering both priming and tack coating
- Supplied in 200-litre drums and tanker trucks, suitable for projects of every size
- Fully cold application — energy saving, smoke-free, safer for crews
- Fast-setting CRS-1 / CRS-2 cures quickly, reopening roads to traffic sooner
- Produced in-house with a dedicated formulation for the tropical monsoon climate
- Dilutes flexibly to application needs, reducing material cost per square metre
- Ready for use anytime — no mixing plant or heating equipment needed
- Reopens to traffic 30 – 60 minutes after compaction, minimizing congestion
- Storable for up to 6 months, always available in stock
- 25 kg bags are easy to transport to remote, hard-to-reach sites
Delivery by branded hot tanks and tanker trucks
Paving bitumen 60/70 is kept in heated storage tanks and transported by specialized hot bitumen tanker trucks, all carrying the Asphalt Solutions Vietnam logo and name — delivery temperature stays on specification from depot to site. Bulk supply is scheduled to your project anywhere in Vietnam.
New 200-litre steel drums — about 180 kg per drum, export standard
Paving bitumen 60/70 is packed in new 200-litre steel drums with a net weight of about 180 kg per drum, following the export drum packing standard. New, properly sealed drums are easy to move by road and sea, suiting both domestic and export orders. Bulk supply is scheduled to your project anywhere in Vietnam.
Branded 25 kg bag packaging
Cold mix asphalt comes in 25 kg bags printed with the Asphalt Solutions Vietnam name and logo — easy to transport to remote sites, storable for up to 6 months and ready to use anytime, anywhere. Branded bags and bulk orders are available per project requirements.
