Growing road construction activities in fast growing regional markets of China and India are expected to drive the growth of the bitumen market in Asia. Furthermore, there is an increasing use of Polymer Modified Bitumen (PMB) in road construction, water-proofing of roofs and consumer goods, as properties of PMB can be altered to suit different needs. However, extraction of bitumen from oil sands has environmental issues associated with it that could hamper the demand for bitumen.

Road construction was the largest application segment for bitumen and accounted for over 80% of the global bitumen consumption in 2011. Water-proofing of roofs was the next largest application segment, consuming over 12 million tons of bitumen in 2012. In addition, bitumen is used as an adhesive and insulating material in a variety of general industrial applications.

North America was the largest bitumen consumer with over 30 million tons consumed in 2011. Europe followed North America in bitumen consumption, accounting for over 15% of global volumes in 2012. Germany and France were the largest regional markets in Europe, together accounting for over 30% of total consumption in 2012. Middle East and Brazil are expected to register above average growth over the forecast period.
