Asphalt additives are technical solutions used to enhance the performance of bitumen and asphalt mixtures. By improving critical properties such as durability, workability, adhesion, and longevity, they enable more efficient and sustainable pavement performance.
İstanbul Teknik initiated comprehensive R&D activities in 2008 with the aim of reducing external dependency in the Turkish asphalt sector and developing high-performance asphalt solutions through local engineering expertise. The research conducted, laboratory testing, field applications, and innovative products developed during this period have created a strong technical foundation in asphalt production, road maintenance and repair, bitumen modification, and overall asphalt performance enhancement.
Over time, the expanding product portfolio, increasing customer demands, and a solution-oriented approach tailored to the sector led to the establishment of İstanbul Teknik Asphalt Technologies. Positioned as a brand focused solely on the asphalt industry, İstanbul Teknik Asphalt provides product and system solutions that enhance performance in road construction, maintenance, repair, and asphalt production processes.
Today, İstanbul Teknik Asphalt products cover a wide range of applications, including asphalt repair and maintenance products, modified bitumen additives, workability enhancers, bitumen emulsifiers, anti-stripping agents, and cellulose fibers.
High-performance products designed to provide fast and durable repair of cracks, potholes, and surface deterioration in asphalt pavements. They improve road safety, extend pavement life, and offer practical solutions applicable under various weather conditions.
Explore asphalt repair and maintenance products
Additives that improve the workability of asphalt during application. By optimizing the viscosity and flow characteristics of bitumen and asphalt mixtures, they ensure more homogeneous distribution and better application quality.
Explore workability enhancing additives
These additives improve the durability of bitumen, enabling more efficient use in asphalt mixtures, road construction, and waterproofing applications. Modification enhances temperature resistance, elasticity, and aging resistance, resulting in longer-lasting and more durable solutions across different climate conditions.
Explore modified bitumen additives
Chemical additives that enable stable and homogeneous blending of bitumen and water. Emulsifiers allow the production of bitumen emulsions, ensuring more efficient and economical asphalt applications.
Widely used in prime coat, chip seal, slurry seal, and micro-surfacing applications.
Additives that improve adhesion between bitumen and aggregates, preventing stripping and separation in asphalt pavements. They enhance durability under heavy traffic and harsh environmental conditions, extending pavement life and reducing maintenance needs.
İstanbul Teknik Asphalt product TeraGrip is the first locally produced anti-stripping agent in Türkiye.
Explore Peel Resistance Agents
Cellulose fibers used in Stone Mastic Asphalt (SMA) mixtures form the mastic structure together with bitumen, fine aggregates, and fillers, ensuring void filling and high strength. This structure contributes to the durability and long service life of SMA pavements.
They also prevent binder drain-down caused by high bitumen content, improving mixture stability.
Explore cellulose fiber products
Supporting products are complementary solutions designed to enhance asphalt production and application processes, improve performance, and increase operational efficiency. These include anti-adhesion and cleaning chemicals, polymer-modified bitumen stabilizers, and colored asphalt solutions.
