Global bitumen market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 4.56% during the forecast period 2025-2032. The market size will grow from USD 72.45 billion in 2024 to USD 103.51 billion in 2032. Global Bitumen is largely influenced by its extensive use in the construction sector, mainly road paving and infrastructure development. Bitumen is a well-known petroleum-derived product, which finds wide usage in various manufacturing asphalt, owing to its excellent binding, waterproof, and durability properties. The road construction industry largely drives the market, with asphalt roads made using bitumen being the desired one owing to their capability to withstand heavy usage and extreme climatic conditions.
In the Asia-Pacific region, Chinese and Indian urbanization and industrialization have given rise to infrastructure development under the cover of highways, roads, and airports, thus driving demand for bitumen of paving grade. Similarly, highway rehabilitation and maintenance activity also significantly contribute to bitumen utilization in North America. Moreover, growing uses of bitumen in waterproofing and roofing of houses and commercial buildings also fuel market growth. For instance, as of February 2024, Caspi Bitum LLP joint venture (KazMunayGas and CITIC Kazakhstan LLP) is expanding its Atyrau Refinery's oil processing capacity. The project, launched in November 2024 with over USD 76 million invested, aims to boost road bitumen output from 500,000 to 750,000 tons annually by second quarter 2025, solidifying its position as Central Asia's key road bitumen producer.
Rising Demand for the Sustainable Roads Construction Driving the Bitumen Demand
Road construction is significantly boosting the global bitumen market. As industries and governments increasingly seek eco-friendly infrastructure solutions, the use of bitumen-a crude oil-derived binder prized for its resilience, water resistance, and adhesive qualities-remains central to road building. However, concerns over pollution and the non-renewable nature of conventional bitumen are accelerating the adoption of sustainable alternatives and innovative technologies. Green bitumen, which offers lower carbon emissions and recyclability, is gaining traction as a cost-effective way to reduce the environmental impact of road construction. One notable advancement is the development of bio-bitumen, produced from renewable resources such as wood-based oils, agricultural residues, and used cooking oil. These bio-based materials can be blended with traditional petroleum bitumen or used as additives, enhancing performance while addressing sustainability challenges.
Government policies are also driving this shift. Countries with green infrastructure agendas, such as India, are increasingly using polymer-modified bitumen to improve road quality and mitigate environmental effects. A milestone in this movement was the inauguration of India's first green road-the Nagpur-Mansar Bypass Project (NH44)-in December 2024, constructed with lignin-based bio-bitumen. Praj Industries' process for lignin bio-bitumen, further support this transition. Their product, capable of 15% blending with conventional bitumen, can reduce greenhouse gas emissions by 70% compared to fossil-based bitumen. Scaling this solution in India could require around 1.5 million tons of bio-bitumen, potentially saving USD 450-500 million in foreign exchange.
Technological Innovation Driving the Bitumen Market
Technological innovation is at the forefront of propelling the bitumen market through its developments in product performance, sustainability, and efficiency for infrastructure projects. The polymer-modified bitumen (PMB) is one of such innovations. It is a product that is stronger, elastic, and resilient to climatic conditions. It is therefore best for new infrastructure like highway and airport development that requires high-performance material. Moreover, warm mix and cold mix asphalt manufacturing processes are also on the rise on the basis of the potential to save energy for use and on-site low emissions in accordance with sustainable goals. Another key innovation is the application of recycled products such as reclaimed asphalt pavement (RAP) and recycled plastic or rubber in the production process of bitumen. Technology not only saves waste, but the properties of the material are enhanced, and the environmental issues are addressed. Bio-bitumen, which is made from renewable raw materials such as vegetable oils and lignin, is now a petroleum bitumen substitute for sustainable in nature. Such developments are being promoted by government policies towards green construction.
For instance, in December 2024, Mangalore Refinery and Petrochemicals Limited (MRPL) commissioned a new bitumen production unit in Mangaluru, India, using advanced "Biturox" technology. The unit has an annual capacity of 1,50,000 metric tons, doubling MRPL's bitumen production capability. This expansion is crucial for India's highway development and economic growth. The facility is designed to produce premium VG40 bitumen consistently and offers flexibility to manufacture VG30 and other grades. MRPL aims to provide road construction companies with locally produced, high-quality bitumen, furthering Atmanirbhar Bharat's vision.
