Application and market fit
Use it where the project expressly requires matching Pen 60/70 properties.
Potential applications
- Hot-mix asphalt and asphaltic-concrete production.
- Road and infrastructure paving where the tender accepts Penetration Grade 60/70.
- Airport or airfield paving only when the project specification requires this grade.
- Malaysia and Mauritius enquiries when the complete mandatory property table and test references are comparable.
Separate products
- SK60, K1-60, CRS, RS and other tack-coat emulsions.
- Prime-coat products.
- Liquid waterproofing coatings and membranes.
- Viscosity, performance or polymer-modified grades without technical comparison.
