Bitumen, also referred to as tar or pitch, is a petroleum-based hydrocarbon occurring naturally as a concentrated substance in pitch lakes and oil sands. It can either be in liquid state or take a semi-solid form. At higher temperatures, bitumen acts like a viscous liquid that can be combined with other components whereas, when it is cooled, it becomes an inert solid that is hydrophobic and durable.

Bitumen is majorly utilized in the construction sector as a key constituent in products that are used for roofing and paving. It offers excellent waterproofing and thermoplastic characteristics that are crucial in a wide range of applications.

With ongoing vaccination drives across the world, countries have shifted their focus towards post-pandemic recovery. To that effect, industries that were adversely impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic have resumed operations.

The construction sector has also seen a rise in activities, particularly with the resumption of projects that were halted for months during the pandemic. Moreover, increased spending, declining unemployment, and rising consumer sentiment are facilitating the expansion of the construction sector.

This upsurge in construction activities is indicative of a robust recovery for builders in the following years. Consequently, the growing construction industry is positively influencing product demand across the globe.

The bitumen market has been categorized on the basis of product, application, and region. With respect to product, the market has further been categorized into oxidized bitumen, paving bitumen, bitumen emulsion, cutback bitumen, polymer modified bitumen, and others.

In 2020, the cutback bitumen sub-segment accounted for around 4.6% of the bitumen market and is estimated to garner a sizable revenue by the end of the forecast period. The bitumen emulsion sub-segment is projected to grow at a CAGR of over 4.6% through the assessment timeframe. The bitumen market from the others sub-segment is also calculated to expand at a significant pace over the following years.
