Commercial overview

Why buyers choose bitumen in new steel drums

New steel drums are commonly used when buyers need packed bitumen for containerized shipments, easier storage, flexible distribution or markets without large heated bulk facilities.

The key to a successful drummed bitumen order is not only the grade. Buyers should confirm drum type, net weight, loading pattern, container count, documents and destination handling before approval.

1

Easier distribution

Drummed bitumen can be stored and distributed in smaller units compared with hot liquid bulk cargo.

2

Container compatibility

New steel drums can be loaded into containers when the route and packing plan are suitable.

3

Clear packing file

The packing list should show drum count, weight details and shipment description to avoid receiving problems.
