In Italy Giachino Bitumi is the leading stockholder, producer/processor and supplier of bitumen.

MISSION
To supply oxidized and fluxed bitumen for road applications.
To produce modified bitumen (SEALOFLEX).
To produce bitumen emulsions for traditional and innovative applications (cationic emulsions for anchor layers, elastomer emulsions for special-purpose applications emulsions for cold-applied microlayers -> MACROSEAL).

In the fast-approaching third millennium, Giachino Bitumi will make renewed efforts in the quest for the recycling of bitumen residues both on-site and through fixed and/or mobile units. This is a high technology development with a huge market potential, which in the future will be increasingly based on cold processing-recovery of materials means energy saving.

Giachino Bitumi's main mission is road improvement. COLORSEAL is ideal for cycling and pedestrian ways, providing the same environment-friendly characteristics as those offered by MACROSEAL, with the addition of permanent colouring.

Giachino Bitumi is a partner with ideas and products of excellence. But one example is PLASTOX, a brand new special polymer modified bitumen for sealing road surface cracks produced by ageing or wear, to help prolong surface layer life.
This product is also suitable for sealing viaduct joints, cable trenches and as protection against humidity.
