Moreover, various applications of bitumen in numerous industries, and consistent efforts undertaken by several prominent companies to develop innovative products are creating several new opportunities for business operating in this market sphere.
For the record, bitumen is a complex hydrocarbon largely used for road construction. It finds extensive application as a binder for construction materials such as aggregates, stones, etc.
Based on product type, paving, oxidized, cutback, polymer modified bitumen (PMB), and bitumen emulsion are the key segments covered in Asia Pacific bitumen market research literature. Among these, polymer modified bitumen segment is projected to record a CAGR of 5.6% through 2027. This can be credited to its excellent properties such as resistance to fatigue, low temperature sensitivity, high cohesiveness, extra strength, deformations and stripping.
Moving on to application, the market is classified into waterproofing, roadways, insulation, adhesives, and others. Of these, adhesives segment is anticipated to record a CAGR of 4.3% over the assessment period. Mounting demand for adhesives across regional end-use industries, rapidly increasing population, and rising income levels across are expected to drive segmental growth.
Moreover, bitumen is also being increasingly used in road construction application for developing durable pavements owing to its flexible, strong, and elastomeric properties when mixed with polymer.
Considering the geographical outlook, the industry size spans across India, China, Australia, Japan, Indonesia, Malaysia, and South Korea.
