Press release from: /bitumen-market.html

The global bitumen market will be boosted by rising demand from the construction industry, states a market research document recently published by Transparency Market Research. The report states that the market will exhibit a healthy 3.9% CAGR over the period between 2014 and 2020, and will rise from a valuation of US$71.44 bn in 2013 to US$93.38 bn by 2020.The market report is titled “Global Bitumen Market - Industry Analysis, Size, Share, Growth, Trends and Forecast, 2014 - 2020.”

Bitumen is a highly viscous hydrocarbon produced as a result of the distillation of petroleum. The distillation is carried out either in refinery units using crude oil or it may result from natural phenomenon, thereby leading to the formation of asphalt lakes or tar pits. Bitumen is commonly referred to as asphalt cement or asphalt in North America and is extensively used for the construction of roads and pavements in the region.

The report states that a rapid rise in road development activities across the globe and the increased popularity of bitumen as an environmentally viable option for constructing these structures are the major factors driving the global bitumen market. Roads and pavements made from bitumen are recycled as base for new bitumen roads and utilize at least 20% less energy as compared to the construction of roads from conventional materials and concrete mixes. However, certain concerns pertaining to the potential toxic effects of bitumen on environment and workers handling it as well as the availability of the cheaper alternatives are expected to limit the market’s growth to a certain extent over the forecast period.
