Price of Bitumen in Togo
The price of bitumen in Togo is influenced by several key factors, including fluctuations in international crude oil prices, freight and shipping costs to West African ports such as Lomé, the cost of vacuum bottom (VB) as the base material, and the chosen packaging method—whether steel drums, jumbo bags, or bulk delivery.
Togo’s climate, characterized by a tropical savanna environment with high temperatures, seasonal rainfall, and coastal humidity—especially in areas like Lomé, Sokodé, and Kara—demands bitumen grades that can withstand both moisture intrusion and heat-induced softening. Bitumen 60/70 is the most commonly used grade in Togo and serves as the industry’s pricing reference. Its reliable performance, affordability, and suitability for a wide range of traffic and environmental conditions make it the preferred choice for national roadworks and infrastructure development throughout the country.

How to Choose the Right Bitumen in Togo
Selecting the appropriate bitumen grade in Togo is essential for building long-lasting and resilient roads that can withstand the country’s tropical climate. Coastal regions like Lomé experience high humidity, salt-laden air, and heavy seasonal rainfall, while inland areas such as Sokodé and Kara face high temperatures, sun exposure, and occasional flooding during the rainy season.
To address these conditions, flexible and moisture-resistant bitumen is necessary to prevent cracking, rutting, and water infiltration. Softer grades may be more suitable for areas with moderate traffic and milder temperatures, whereas stiffer penetration or performance grade (PG) bitumen is ideal for high-traffic routes and regions exposed to prolonged heat. Choosing the right bitumen ensures durability, reduced road maintenance, and reliable performance across Togo’s expanding transport infrastructure.
Bitumen Penetration in Togo
Due to Togo’s hot, humid coastal weather and hot, dry conditions inland, penetration-grade bitumen must be carefully selected to meet the road performance needs in each region.
- Bitumen 60/70
Widely used on highways and major roads across Togo, particularly in southern and central areas. Its balanced properties make it ideal for mixed traffic and high ambient temperatures. - Bitumen 80/100
Commonly applied to urban and residential roads in areas with moderate traffic and less extreme temperatures—especially in coastal or shaded environments. - Bitumen 40/50
Used for industrial roads, high-load corridors, and zones with extreme sun exposure where higher stiffness is needed to prevent deformation. - Bitumen 85/100
Ideal for local streets and internal networks in regions that require a more flexible binder to handle environmental changes without cracking.
Performance Grade (PG) Bitumen in Togo
As road networks expand and traffic loads increase, PG bitumen is being adopted in major Togolese infrastructure projects due to its reliability under temperature and stress fluctuations.
- PG 70-10
Best for hot inland regions like Sokodé and Kara, where pavements must endure sustained heat and heavy axle pressure. - PG 76-10
Used for strategic corridors such as ports, regional highways, and export routes requiring superior rutting and fatigue resistance. - PG 76-22
Ideal for areas with large day–night temperature variations, this grade enhances flexibility and reduces fatigue cracking. - PG 64-22
A practical choice for roads in Togo’s moderate climate zones, balancing cost-effectiveness and long-term performance.
