Bitumen Primer

Bitumen Primer is a liquid bonding agent made from bitumen and solvents, designed to improve adhesion between bituminous membranes and porous surfaces like concrete, metal, and wood. It penetrates the substrate, sealing dust and moisture while enhancing the waterproofing efficiency of bituminous coatings.

Our high-quality Bitumen Primer is ideal for: 

• Roof waterproofing – Prepares surfaces for bituminous membrane application. 
• Concrete foundations & basements – Prevents moisture ingress. 
• Steel & metal surfaces – Protects against corrosion and enhances adhesion. 
• Road & bridge construction – Serves as a primer for asphalt layers. 
• Tunnels & underground structures – Ensures superior waterproofing. 

Using Bitumen Primer offers multiple advantages: 

• Enhances adhesion – Creates a strong bond between bituminous materials and surfaces. 
• Fast-drying formula – Reduces waiting time before membrane application. 
• Waterproof & dust-proof – Seals porous surfaces for better moisture protection. 
• Highly durable – Increases the longevity of bituminous coatings. 
• Compatible with various surfaces – Works on concrete, metal, wood, and masonry. 

1. Clean the surface – Remove dust, dirt, and loose debris. 
2. Ensure the area is dry – Avoid application on wet or damp surfaces. 
3. Apply using a brush, roller, or spray – Ensure an even coat. 
4. Allow it to dry – Typically, drying takes 1-2 hours, depending on conditions. 
5. Proceed with membrane application – Once fully dry, apply bitumen sheets or coatings. 

The drying time depends on temperature, humidity, and application thickness. Typically: 

• Touch dry within 1-2 hours.
• Fully cured within 4-6 hours.

Yes! Bitumen Primer is widely used in road and bridge construction as a tack coat before applying asphalt layers, ensuring better bonding and longevity.

No, Bitumen Primer is not recommended for surfaces in contact with potable (drinking) water. Instead, use an NSF-certified waterproofing primer for such applications.

Yes! Our Bitumen Primer is UV-resistant and performs well in high-temperature environments, making it suitable for hot and dry climates like the UAE.
