Description
BITUKIM, as a credible bitumen supplier in Tanzania, is privileged to be among the country’s development in infrastructure. With massive investments in roads, seaports, airports, and energy projects, Tanzania is transforming rapidly into the logistics hub of East Africa. Our bitumen products are crafted to face the coastal humidity of Tanzania, inland temperatures, and diverse topography.
Why Tanzania Needs Reliable Bitumen Solutions?
From the bustling port city of Dar es Salaam to the highland roads of Mbeya and the central trade corridors like Dodoma to Mwanza, Tanzania’s climatic and environmental diversity demands high-performance, climate-adapted bitumen. As a reliable bitumen supplier in Tanzania, we ensure that our products meet the specific temperature resistance, elasticity, and load-bearing requirements of each region.
Bitumen Grades Available for Tanzania
We offer a wide variety of Tanzanian infrastructure development-specific bitumen grades:
Bitumen 60/70
Optimally used for coastal and landlocked towns like Dar es Salaam and Morogoro, where there is medium heat and traffic that requires balanced penetration and resistance.
Bitumen 80/100
Optimally applied in cooler, highland areas like Iringa or Mbeya. Its flexibility prevents cracking at lower temperatures and low-traffic areas.
Bitumen 40/50
Used in the warmer, drier regions such as Dodoma and Singida, this more robust grade provides improved resistance to deformation and heavy traffic.
Viscosity Grades (VG30 / VG40)
VG30 is used on urban roads, while VG40 is used on high-load roads such as export corridors to Zambia and the DRC.
Cutback Bitumen (MC30, MC70)
Used on a wide range of rural or cold-temperature priming projects where there may be limited heating facilities.
Bitumen Emulsions (CRS, CSS series)
Utilized for road maintenance and repair, specifically Tanzania‘s rainy season for faster and eco-friendly application.
Oxidized Bitumen (85/25, 90/40)
Utilized in industrial sectors like waterproofing, coating of pipes, and development of properties in Tanzania‘s growing cities.
Polymer Modified Bitumen (PMB)
Designed for expressways, container terminals, and industrial estates with heavy loads and stress demand—such as Central Corridor or Bagamoyo Port projects.
Entry Ports and Transportation in Tanzania
Because of Tanzania‘s coastline and strategic ports, we ship bitumen efficiently through:
Dar es Salaam Port (Primary point of entry)
Tanga Port (Entry for northern regions)
Mtwara Port (For southern supply routes)
We offer inland delivery to main cities, construction sites, and warehouses through tanker trucks or drum deliveries depending on the customer’s choice.
