Bitumen drums are a popular and practical packaging solution for transporting and storing bitumen, a critical material used in road construction, roofing, and waterproofing applications. These drums are typically made of high-quality steel and are designed to withstand extreme temperatures and rough handling during shipping and storage. The use of bitumen drums offers several advantages. First and foremost, they provide a safe and leak-proof method of packaging. Since bitumen is usually transported in hot or semi-solid form, the drums are built to resist deformation and prevent spillage. They come in various sizes, commonly ranging from 150 to 200 kilograms, to suit different logistical and project needs. One of the main benefits of using bitumen drums is their global transportability. Drums are easy to stack and load into containers, making them ideal for international shipping. Once they reach their destination, the bitumen can be melted directly from the drums, minimizing waste and improving operational efficiency. Drummed bitumen is especially useful in regions where bulk bitumen infrastructure, such as heated storage tanks or bitumen tankers, is not available. It provides flexibility for contractors working in remote or small-scale locations.
