Types Of Bitumen Packaging
Bitumen is a dense and black petroleum substance obtained from the distillation of crude oil. This material is used in various industries, including construction, road construction, waterproofing, and even in the pharmaceutical industry.
Bitumen is a very viscous liquid, so its packaging is very important. According to factors such as cost, environment, storage and transportation, bitumen packaging is divided into three different types: steel barrel; Jumbo bag and tanker bags, which are selected based on their specifications, volume and weight of bitumen, are the best type of packaging.
Bitumen packing in metal barrel
Metal barrel packaging is the most common type of bitumen packaging due to its safety and stable quality. This type of packaging can be changed according to the volume, height, thickness and tar lid. The thickness of the barrel body is 6 mm. This type of steel metal barrels are used to transport and pack liquids and viscous materials such as bitumen. Although metal barrels are more used in bitumen trading and trading, but still the costs of bitumen barrels are much higher compared to jumbo bags, in fact steel is more expensive than plastic in package costs. Bitumen is quite effective.

Bitumen Packing In Jumbo Bag
The Jumbo Bag is a multi-layered and flexible large bag whose inner layer is made of nano nylon and has a high heat tolerance, which is 109 degrees Celsius as a standard and melts at 160 degrees Celsius, and is known as "Bito Bag". , "Big Bag" and "Bulk Bag" are also common. This type of polyalkene bags with higher quality and resistance is considered one of the best types of bitumen packaging. Reasonable price and ease of use have made it popular in industries. Recently, bitumen exporters use jumbo bags instead of steel barrels.
Unlike metal barrels, jumbo bags reduce bitumen waste by about 3-4%.
To discharge bitumen from metal barrels, it is necessary to heat bitumen, but in jumbo bag, it is enough to tear the outer layer of jumbo bag and put the jumbo bag with the inner layer in the melting furnace.
Bulk Packing Of Bitumen In Tankers
In the wholesale trade of bitumen, or it is better to say in the buying and selling of bitumen in a very large volume, to collect bitumen and transport it to ships, or the same bitumen tankers that exist in ports, to trucks or tankers. It is necessary to transport bitumen. At the destination, another bitumen truck collects the cargo and delivers it to the place of use or specific bitumen warehouses. This type of packaging is cheaper than all bitumen packaging, but its price is affected by volume capacity, loading time and currency fluctuations, but overall, its cost is low.
