Bituminous road materials include asphalt concrete, PMB, and mastic asphalt. These materials provide strength and elasticity for roads. GlobeCore polymer-modified bitumen plants produce high-quality materials, ensuring their performance aligns with modern construction and maintenance standards.

It is also worth mentioning that bituminous road materials can include specialized mixtures designed for particular applications, such as waterproofing, joint sealing, bridge decks, and areas exposed to heavy traffic. Their properties depend not only on the bitumen grade, but also on the type and proportion of mineral fillers, aggregates, polymers, and other additives. Bitumen mastic is a good example of how formulation and production technology influence the performance of the final material.
