Viscosity Grade (VG) Packed Bitumen

Viscosity Grade Bitumen (VG Bitumen) is a premium paving-grade material widely used in road construction and various industrial applications. Packed VG bitumen is delivered in robust, easy-to-handle containers, making it particularly suited to projects in remote areas or where controlled usage is essential.

At JSW One MSME, we supply VG-10, VG-30, and VG-40 grades in sealed, transport-safe packaging. All products conform to IS 73:2013 standards and are ideal for highways, city roads, airport runways and more.

Types of VG packed bitumen available

VG-10 : Suitable for surface dressing and tack coat spraying, Ideal for cold and mountainous climates
VG-30: Most widely used for hot mix asphalt in moderate climates, Offers strong resistance to rutting and excellent stability
VG-40: Designed for heavily trafficked roads and highways in hot weather, High stiffness and resistance to deformation under load

Why choose packed VG bitumen?

Accurate quantity control – Simplifies batching and reduces waste
Clean and safe handling – Minimises spillage, improves job-site hygiene
Ready for remote projects – Easier to transport and deploy in difficult terrains
Weather-resistant packaging – Guards against contamination and moisture
IS 73:2013 certified – Assured quality and national standards compliance

Applications of Viscosity Grade Packed Bitumen

Road construction – Integral to base, binder and wearing courses
Airport runways – High load-bearing capacity and skid resistance
Rural and urban roads – Reliable for flexible pavements and overlays
Bituminous mixes – Compatible with asphalt concrete, DBM and SMA

FAQs

What distinguishes VG-10, VG-30 and VG-40?
VG-10 has the lowest viscosity, ideal for cold climates and spray applications. VG-30 suits moderate climates and is used in most road works. VG-40 is highly viscous, suitable for hot climates and heavy vehicular loads.
Is packed bitumen more advantageous than bulk?
Packed bitumen offers safer handling, easier storage and better volume control—especially useful in smaller or logistically constrained projects.
Does your bitumen meet IS standards?
Yes, all our VG grades are fully compliant with IS 73:2013 specifications.
What are the available packing options?
Our packed VG bitumen is typically available in 25 kg and 200 kg drums, with custom packaging available on request.
Can I procure VG bitumen in bulk?
Certainly. We provide both packed and bulk variants, depending on the volume and logistics needs of your project.
What is the shelf life of packed bitumen?
When stored in dry, shaded conditions, packed VG bitumen maintains its properties for up to 12 months.
How do I store packed bitumen on-site?
Store drums upright on wooden pallets, away from direct sunlight and moisture, to prevent deterioration and leakage.
Is it suitable for manual and automated application systems?
Yes, VG bitumen is compatible with both traditional and mechanised laying methods.
Can packed VG bitumen be reused if some is left over?
Yes, provided the material is stored properly and uncontaminated, it can be reheated and reused.
What is the pouring temperature for VG bitumen?
It typically ranges from 150°C to 165°C, depending on the grade and ambient conditions.
Are different VG grades interchangeable?
Not ideally. Each VG grade is formulated for specific climate and load conditions. Substitutions should only be made under expert guidance.
Do you offer technical guidance for bitumen usage?
Yes. Our experts can advise on grade selection, application technique and mix design for optimal results.
Is VG bitumen suitable for high-altitude construction?
Yes, VG-10 is especially suitable for cold regions and high altitudes due to its lower viscosity and better sprayability.
How is packed VG bitumen delivered?
We offer secure and timely delivery across India, with tracking and logistic support for large-scale or remote site deployments.
What industries beyond road construction use VG bitumen?
In addition to infrastructure, VG bitumen is used in roofing, water-proofing, industrial flooring and dam lining.
