Road Products Supply Division

SAFARI is proud to partner with IWL India Ltd. to bring IWL Road Products in Bangladesh. As the sole distributor of IWL India, we bring the best quality products and services in Road Products segment in Bangladesh. IWL in collaboration with European experts, set up a completely automated facility at Red Hills near Chennai for the above purposes. The manufacturing facility of IWL is spread over 40,000 square feet of built up area located within 6 acres of industrial land. The facility is completely automated and digitally controlled and monitored. With this facility in place and since all Bitumen handling facilities were available, IWL also diversified itself into manufacturer of Bituminous Road products such as Bitumen emulsions, Crumb Rubber Modified Bitumen (CRMB) and Polymer Modified Bitumen (PMB). IWL India manufactures high quality Road Products and their products meet several Indian Standards on relevant areas.

Key Product Types

⇨ Road Emulsions

Road Emulsions are colloid of two or more immiscible liquids (bitumen and water) where contains a dispersion of bitumen. Three types of bituminous emulsions are available; Rapid setting (RS), Medium setting (MS), and Slow setting (SS). Bitumen emulsions are ideal binders where heating of bitumen or aggregates are difficult. They are easy to transport, store and use.

⇨ CRMB (Crumb Rubber Modified Bitumen)

CRMB (Crumb Rubber Modified Bitumen) is hydrocarbon binder obtained through physical and chemical interaction of crumb rubber and bitumen. The rubber is used in an asphalt binder which is temperature resistant. CRMB particularly resists brittleness at low temperatures. CRMB has good adhesion to mineral mass and is suitable for pavements subjected to varying weather conditions. It can be used on highways, traffic junctions and high traffic roads. CRMB is manufactured in three grades.

⇨ PMB (Polymer Modified Bitumen)

PMB (Polymer Modified Bitumen) is a high performance polymer modified bitumen manufactured using quality polymers in a sophisticated reactor at elevated temperatures. Complex processing modifies the properties of bitumen and imparts enhanced fatigue life, better resistance to creep, higher indirect tensile strength, elasticity and other beneficial properties to withstand extreme traffic loads. Use of PMB leads to excellent pavement life, driving comfort and low maintenance.

⇨ Liquibit AS (Anti-Stripping Agents)

Liquibit AS (Anti-Stripping Agents) are chemical compounds which are used to enhance the bond between aggregate and bitumen. They are used to prevent pavement deterioration due to the detachment or 'stripping' of bitumen that coats the surface of the aggregate.

⇨ IWL Road Marking Paint

IWL Road Marking Paint is a thermoplastic, single component, reflective road marketing paint used for marking on road and runway surfaces. It is available in white and yellow color. It can be applied on cementitious and bituminous surfaces. It has excellent adhesion on well prepared surfaces, good durability and resistance to abrasion.

⇨ Mastoplas

Mastoplas is an APP modified bituminous membrane with high strength reinforcement and heat resistant rubberized asphalt. This membrane is bonded to bridge decks to prolong service life of the bridge by protecting steel reinforcement from corrosion.

SAFARI is the only supplier of Road Emulsions, CRMB (Crumb Rubber Modified Bitumen), PMB (Polymer Modified Bitumen), Liquibit AS (Anti-Stripping Agents), IWL Road Marking Paint and Mastoplas in Bangladesh.
