Viscosity Grade

“Ever Brilliant General Trading LLC.” Serves its client by providing “Viscosity Grade” Bitumen (Designated by VG xx) both in “Aged Residue” (AR) and “Asphalt Cement” (AC) categories.

We can provide the required bitumen based on particularities like: Penetration, Specific Gravity, Softening Point, Water Content, Ductility, Solubility, Loss on Heating, Flash Point, Fire Point, etc.

The supplied products adhere to the related standards published by entities like “European Committee for Standardization (CEN)” ,  “Deutsche Industrie Norm (DIN EN) “ ,  “Association Française de Normalisation (AFNOR – NF EN)” ,  “BSI Standards – the UK’s National Standards Body (NSB – BS EN)” , “American Society for Testing and Materials (ASTM)” , “American Association of State Highway and Transportation O®cials (AASHTO)” , “South African Standard Organization (SABS)” and  “Standards Australia (AS)” .

Applications of different grades of bitumen include: Roofing, Paving, Paint, Cable/Pipe Coating, Water/damp/Carpet Tile waterproofing, Soundproofing, Reservoir lining, etc.
