BM produces special road construction materials, water proofing prod-ucts for buildings and works of infrastructure, bridge-joint filling materials and special bituminous products.BM is license patent pending for the procedure-method and production equipment of bitumix®.

The Company

The company’s know how on production level is based on long time expertise of its people, being devoted to the purpose of improving production and application meth-ods. At the same time, continuous research provides BM with the possibility of improving quality and customizing its production to satisfy individual customer needs, resulting in high quality service.

Research and Development

• Establishment of small production units in other EU or non EU countries, for the production and distribution of bitumix®.• Exportation of its products by developing a human resource based distribution network. BM already has exports to Czech Republic, Slovakia, Cyprus and F.Y.R.O.M.• Improvement of product quality, development of new products and refining production line procedures.

Targets

Applications• Tuck coat.• Surface treatments.• Impregnation of core aggregates.

Application methodThe applied surface must be clean without oils or any waste materials. KE-1 is sprayed to the desirable surface with the appropriate apparatus, so homogenously suspension of the material occurs to the whole surface. Stirring well before use is advised for complete homogenization. The emulsion is not applied during rain. Applied temperature is 2 oC - 60 oC.

ConsumptionConsumption depends on the sub-layer and its use: tack coats 0,6 - 0,8 kg/m2 (old surfaces), 0,4 - 0,6 kg/m2 (new surfaces). Surface treatments and core aggregates impregnation 1,0 - 1,2 kg/m2. Concrete sub-layer 0,8 - 1,0 kg/m2.

Packaging - StorageBulk in tank trucks and in 200 lt (210 kgs) barrels.Frost (temperature < 2 oC) and high temperatures (> 60 oC) protection is needed to avoid thrombosis of the emulsion. In case of storing the emulsion in tanks for a long period, the tanks should be thermo-insulated and must have stirring or re-circulation system. In case of packaging the emulsion in barrels the maximum storage period is (1) one year in covered place.

PrecautionsAvoid skin and eye contact. In case of contact use plenty of water and seek medical advice. Appropriate means of self-protection must be used. Non toxic. It must not be disposed to surface and still water.

emulbitCationic bituminous emulsion

General descriptionRapid setting and low viscosity cationic emulsified asphalt based on road bitumen, water and special emulsifiers. The use of bituminous emulsion KE-1 instead of cutback asphalt or hot road asphalt improves the quality of the executed works and increases the pavement resistance. This is achieved, as the road surface is fully and homogenously covered with a thin layer of asphalt. Also money and time saving is achieved, because no use of heat required during any state of application. It can be used to wet surfaces without anti-stripping agent’s addition.

General descriptionKE-4 is a slow fission, low viscosity cationic bituminous emulsion containing road asphalt, water and special emulsifiers. The KE-4 emulsion provides excellent grip on surfaces and very good adhesion properties with different types of aggregates. It can be applied to wet surfaces without additional use of waterproofing agents.

ApplicationsKE-4 is used for preparation of cold mix asphalt.

Application methodThe KE-4 is mixed with aggregates (limestone or silicates). Good stirring before use is advised for complete homogeniza-tion. Application during precipitation is not possible. Application temperature is 2 oC - 60 oC.

ConsumptionIt depends on the properties and nature of the aggregate materials and varies between 5% - 8% of the weight of aggregates used.

Packaging - Storage KE-4 is available in 200 lt barrels (210 kg) or it can be transported by road trucks with the capacity depending on the tank carried by the truck.Frost temperature (< 2 oC) and high temperatures (> 60 oC) protection is needed to avoid thrombosis of the emulsion. When the emulsion is stored in tanks for a long period of time, the tanks in question must be thermo-insulated having a mixing or re-circulation equipment. When the emulsion is stored in barrels the maximum storage period is (1) one year in a weather protected environment.

PrecautionsAvoid skin and eye contact. In case of skin-eye contact, use plenty of water and seek medical advice. Use appropriate means of self-protection. Non toxic. It must not be disposed on soil or aquatic environment.

General descriptionBITUMAC is a modified bitumen mixture with elastomeric additives, special resins, organic solvents and inert materials. It is bitumen mastic which is applied in temperature of environment and has very good adhesion to porous as well as to smooth surfaces. BITUMAC absorbs the usual deformations of the joint, which occur due to temperature contractions and expansions as a result of its thermoplastic properties.

Application methodIt is applied on horizontal joints of ordinary width span and on vertical joints of narrow span. The application surface must be free of dust, oils and waste materials. When the application surface of the joint is not of bitumen base, BITULAC PRIMER should be applied first. In case of a larger width span of a joint, placement of an elastic lace (closed cells) is recommended for the right configuration and operation of the joint. It is applied in temperature of environment with the use of a spatula or an appropriate greaser. Equipment used during application can be cleaned with white spirit or petroleum solvents.

When the application surface of the joint is not of bitumen base, BITULAC PRIMER should be applied first. Placement of an elastic lace (closed-cells) is recommended for the right configuration and operation of the joint. Equipment used can be cleaned with white spirit or petroleum solvents.

ConsumptionThe consumption is 110 - 130 gr/m of 1x1 cm joint.

Packaging - StorageIn metal containers with a net weight of 20 kgs.If the container remains sealed, it can last in storage for a period of two years.

PrecautionsSpecial precautions should be taken as it is applied hot. Avoid inhalation of vapors as well as skin and eye contact. Use the appropriate means of self protection. It is not toxic and does not contain solvents.
