Turkey’s position between Europe, the Middle East, and Central Asia has made it a significant hub for construction materials, with steady demand driven by highway expansion, airport development, industrial facilities, and urban infrastructure. Companies sourcing bitumen for projects connected to Turkey need to consider more than the product grade alone. Specification requirements, packaging, inspection, shipment schedules, Incoterms, and delivered cost all influence the final purchasing decision. Tiger Bitumen is an international bitumen exporter and supplier offering Turkey Bitumen products for buyers with Turkey-related project requirements.
These bitumen products for Turkey-related projects can be evaluated according to grade, specification, packaging, inspection, shipment schedules, Incoterms, and total delivered cost.
TurkeyBitumen.com, operated by Tiger Bitumen and HY International Group, is an international, Turkey-focused sourcing platform. It is not the website of a domestic Turkish producer; instead, it provides procurement teams, contractors, and distributors working on Turkish or Turkey-linked projects with an additional international sourcing route.
The underlying premise is straightforward: a bitumen purchase should be judged on grade consistency, packaging quality, inspection options, shipping terms, and total delivered cost, not on where the supplier happens to be based. Tiger Bitumen supplies Penetration Bitumen, Performance Grade (PG) Bitumen, Viscosity Grade (VG) Bitumen, Oxidized Bitumen, Cutback Bitumen, Coat Bitumen, and Emulsion Bitumen, each manufactured to internationally recognized specifications for road construction, waterproofing, roofing, and industrial use.
Penetration Bitumen is widely used in asphalt base and wearing courses for highways, urban roads, and other pavement applications. Tiger Bitumen supplies multiple penetration grades for buyers who require consistent product specifications across individual and repeat orders.
Performance Grade Bitumen is specified when pavement performance needs to account for climate, temperature variation, and traffic loading. Tiger Bitumen supplies a range of PG grades for heavy-duty pavements, expressways, and infrastructure projects where performance-based specifications are required.
Viscosity Grade Bitumen is used in hot mix asphalt production where flow behaviour needs to be predictable across a full production run. Asphalt plants running continuous or large-batch operations tend to specify VG grades specifically because they reduce variability from batch to batch.
Oxidized Bitumen’s added hardness and weather resistance make it the standard choice for waterproofing membranes, roofing systems, pipe coating, and general industrial insulation applications that sit alongside road construction on many infrastructure programs.
Cutback Bitumen is formulated to apply at lower temperatures, which makes it useful for road maintenance, surface dressing, and prime coating particularly in cooler conditions or maintenance windows where standard hot-applied bitumen isn’t practical.
Coat Bitumen is used where the priority is long-term protection against moisture, corrosion, and general environmental exposure protective coatings, roofing systems, and industrial insulation work.
Emulsion Bitumen doesn’t require heating during application, which makes it a lower-energy option for tack coats, prime coats, slurry seals, and routine pavement maintenance carried out by municipal or contract maintenance crews.
For buyers evaluating an international source, packaging is often the first practical detail that gets scrutinized, and it’s where supply routes genuinely differ. Tiger Bitumen packs product into new steel drums in 150 KG, 180 KG, and 185 KG formats, inspecting each before filling and weighing it afterward to confirm accurate net content. Drums are sealed to limit leakage and contamination risk during a long sea voyage and subsequent warehouse storage.
Shipments are planned for containerized export, with drum size and container arrangement worked out around the destination port’s handling requirements. Quotations are available on FOB, CFR, or CIF terms depending on how the buyer wants to manage freight and insurance, and independent inspection through SGS or a comparable third-party provider can be arranged before the container is sealed, giving buyers documented verification of quality, quantity, and packaging condition ahead of shipment.
For teams already buying from Turkish suppliers, the point of this page isn’t to argue that arrangement is wrong it’s to offer a second data point. Specification sheets, packaging options, and indicative export terms are available on request, so a procurement team can put Tiger Bitumen’s offer side by side with what they’re currently paying and receiving, and make the comparison on its merits.

Yes. Many procurement teams and contractors working on Turkish or Turkey-linked projects source part or all of their bitumen from international suppliers rather than relying on a single domestic channel. Tiger Bitumen, through TurkeyBitumen.com, supplies penetration, PG, VG, oxidized, and other grades to buyers who want to compare an international bitumen supplier against their existing Turkish supply arrangements on specification, packaging, and delivered cost.
Tiger Bitumen supplies Penetration Bitumen, Performance Grade (PG) Bitumen, Viscosity Grade (VG) Bitumen, Australian Standard Bitumen, Oxidized Bitumen, Cutback Bitumen, Coat Bitumen, and Emulsion Bitumen. Each grade is manufactured to internationally recognized specifications and supports different applications, from highway paving and airport pavements to waterproofing, roofing, and industrial coating projects.
Penetration Bitumen is the most commonly specified grade for asphalt base and wearing courses on highways, municipal roads, and general infrastructure work. Where a project's climate exposure or traffic loading requires additional performance characteristics, Performance Grade (PG) Bitumen or Viscosity Grade (VG) Bitumen may be specified instead, depending on the consultant's or contractor's technical requirements.
Tiger Bitumen packs bitumen in new steel drums in 150 KG, 180 KG, and 185 KG formats. Drum choice generally depends on project logistics, warehouse handling capacity, and shipping preferences. Each drum is inspected before filling and weighed afterward to confirm accurate net content, then sealed to reduce the risk of leakage or contamination during transit.
185 KG steel drums are a common export format because their dimensions and weight suit standard forklift and crane handling, container loading, and long-distance sea freight. They also stack efficiently for warehouse storage. That said, buyers should choose drum size based on their own handling equipment and site logistics rather than assuming one format suits every operation.
Yes. Tiger Bitumen can arrange independent third-party inspection through providers such as SGS or Bureau Veritas prior to shipment. This gives buyers documented verification of product quality, packaging condition, and quantity before the container is sealed and dispatched a step many procurement teams request when evaluating a new or alternative supplier.
Yes. Tiger Bitumen provides quotations on FOB, CFR, or CIF terms depending on how the buyer wants to manage freight and insurance. The right Incoterm depends on whether the buyer's logistics team prefers to arrange shipping directly or have it included in the supplier's quotation, and this can be discussed when requesting pricing.
To provide an accurate quotation, Tiger Bitumen typically needs the required bitumen grade, order quantity, preferred packaging (drum size), destination port, and preferred Incoterm (FOB, CFR, or CIF). Providing these details upfront allows for a more precise quotation and helps identify any additional documentation the shipment may require.
Bitumen is packed into steel drums and loaded into containers for sea freight, with container planning based on drum size and the destination port's handling requirements. Export documentation is prepared to support customs clearance at the receiving port. Buyers should confirm port access and import requirements on their end as part of shipment planning.
Buyers can request Tiger Bitumen's product specifications, packaging options, and indicative export terms and set them alongside what they currently receive from Turkish suppliers. Useful comparison points include grade consistency, packaging quality, availability of third-party inspection, shipping terms, and total delivered cost not just the quoted unit price.
