Reliable Bitumen 40/50 – Superior Flexibility for Challenging Climates

Bitumen 40/50: Engineered Strength for Hot Climate Infrastructure

When it comes to infrastructure built to withstand the most punishing conditions, Bitumen 40/50 is in a league of its own. This premium grade is formulated specifically for regions where extreme heat and heavy traffic demand a tougher, more durable asphalt binder. Basekim’s Bitumen 40/50, sourced directly from top refineries in the UAE and Turkey, offers unmatched resistance to rutting, softening, and deformation. It’s the go-to choice for highway authorities, contractors, and EPC companies operating in the Middle East, Africa, and other tropical zones where standard asphalt grades just can’t keep up.

From busy international airports to vital freight corridors and municipal expressways, our clients choose Bitumen 40/50 for its proven long-term performance. If your priority is minimizing costly repairs and maximizing road safety in the world’s hottest climates, this is the binder that gets the job done.

From Crude Oil to Premium Bitumen 40/50: Our Production Expertise

At Basekim, quality begins with the selection of the right crude oil—chosen for its ability to yield a dense, hard asphalt binder. The journey starts in our advanced refineries in Turkey and the UAE, where we use a combination of vacuum distillation and expertly managed air-blowing to create a product with exactly the penetration and softening point required for 40/50 grade.

Every production batch is carefully tested in our labs for penetration, ductility, flash point, and softening point, with additional checks performed by independent third-party agencies when requested. This level of scrutiny ensures that what leaves our facility is nothing short of world-class—every single time. In recent years, our Bitumen 40/50 has supported major toll road projects in Saudi Arabia, commercial port expansions in West Africa, and city infrastructure upgrades throughout the Gulf.
