Performance Grade (PG) bitumen is bitumen which is graded based on its performance at different temperatures. The Long-Term Pavement Performance(LTPP) has given certain algorithm to calculate the temperature of the pavement based on the temperature of the air above. From this, the highest and the lowest temperatures of the pavement is calculated and the bitumen that performs well in that temperature range is selected.
Penetration grading and viscosity grading are somewhat limited in their ability to fully characterize asphalt binder for use in Hot Mix Asphalt(HMA) pavement. Therefore, as part of the Superpave research effort new binder tests and specifications were developed to more accurately and fully characterize asphalt binders for use in HMA pavements. These tests and specifications are specifically designed to address HMA pavement performance parameters such as rutting, fatigue cracking and thermal cracking.

Laira Group is capable of selling bitumen to its customers based on the PG method. PG is defined as polymer-modified bitumen and pure bitumen based on environmental conditions and temperature. HIGH-TEMPERATURE PERFORMANCE LOW-TEMPERATURE PERFORMANCE PG 46 -34, -40,-46 PG 52 -10, -16, -22, -28, -34,-40,-46V PG 58 -10, -16, -22, -28, -34, -40 PG 64 -10, -16, -22, -28, -34, -40 PG 70 -10, -16, -22, -28, -34, -40 PG 76 -10, -16, -22, -28, -34 PG 82 -10, -16, -22, -28, -34
Asphalt bitumen is mainly used as basic construction materials, raw materials and fuels, and its application scope is such as transportation (road, railway, aviation, etc.), construction industry, agriculture, water conservancy engineering, industry (mining industry, manufacturing industry), civil and other departments.
