BURNCO produces high-quality hot and cold mix asphalt products. We are committed to ensuring that our products meet the highest standards of quality and sustainability.

ABOUT ASPHALT

Asphalt, also known as bitumen, is a highly viscous liquid or semi-solid petroleum. It is primarily found in natural deposits or obtained as a residue from the distillation of petroleum.

BURNCO Asphalt is commonly used for road surfacing, base courses, parking lots, airfields, and runways. It consists of high-quality aggregates mixed with a bitumen binder. While the consistency of aggregates is essential in determining the final results, the properties of bitumen allow for effective recycling of asphalt concrete, making it one of the most recycled materials.
With decades of experience handling projects of various sizes, BURNCO has the expertise and capabilities to meet the needs of even the most complex and demanding projects with diverse applications.
BURNCO's uncompromising commitment to the environment has also led us to design our asphalt products with enhanced quality, performance, durability, and sustainability for paving and road applications.

BURNCO’s Asphalt Recycling Measures

BURNCO understands and acknowledges the responsibility of acting sustainably. As part of our many environmental initiatives, we collect old and used asphalt from roads and parking lots that would otherwise end up in landfills.
BURNCO transports the old asphalt to our production facilities, where it is processed and prepared for use in our manufacturing process. By leveraging the Reclaimed Asphalt Product (RAP), we reduce our environmental footprint by reclaiming 100% of aggregate and bitumen binder in the RAP to construct our product with uncompromising quality.
