Bridge Design - bridge construction requires a pavement with the ability to cope with the demands of heavy vehicles and varying weather conditions. Mastic asphalt in combination with polymer-modified bitumen is an excellent material to meet these demands. For more information, see; Shell Caritop, Shell Cariphalte, Shell Multiphalte.

Urban Regeneration - Improving the quality of inner city spaces, our colourless binders can be mixed with conventional pigments to bring colour and light to important community spaces. For more information see; Shell Mexphalte C, Shell Floraphalte.
Waterproofing - Bitumen has unique waterproofing properties, due largely to its impermeability and lack of reactivity, which makes it an ideal sealant for many civil engineering, property and DIY waterproofing applications. For more information see; Shell Floraphalte, Shell Tixophalte, Oxidised Bitumen.

As well as standard penetration grades and oxidised bitumen products, Shell Bitumen has developed a comprehensive specialist product portfolio designed to meet the needs of many different users; industrial, professional or domestic.

Environmental Solutions

Environmental Solutions

With our advanced technologies, we offer solutions designed to be less harmful to the environment – for lower odour, reduced mixing temperatures and lower emissions of CO2 and dust particles in asphalt production.

Durability

Durability

High performance bitumens designed to maximize resistance to permanent deformation and reduce fatigue of asphalt mixtures that are used in the most demanding locations.

Low Temperature Mixing

Low Temperature Mixing

Lowering asphalt mixing temperatures can reduce plant and machinery costs while lowering emissions of CO2, dust and fumes.

Risk marketing

Risk marketing

Shell, as one of the largest hydrocarbon trading companies in the world, has the expertise to introduce pricing mechanisms to help customers to effectively manage their costs. In times of volatile energy prices, we strive to provide fixed price choices aligned to your commercial needs.

Road Safety

Road Safety

Whether through high-visibility coloured asphalt for cycle paths and traffic zones, or through cost effective solutions for paving rural roads in developing countries, we offer solutions to greatly improve the safety of road networks.
