“It is a great honour for all of us at Shell Bitumen to be recognised by a world renowned industry body like the IRF. Shell Bitufresh is just one of over 40 patented technologies we have developed throughout our 90 plus years in the bitumen business,” said John Read, Shell’s General Manager for Bitumen Technology.

Shell Bitufresh is a bitumen additive that has been specially formulated to reduce the odour of bitumen, helping to improve working conditions for workers and to reduce odour nuisance for neighbouring local residents. Unlike other products that simply mask the odour of bitumen, Shell Bitufresh actually works by reacting with the source of the smell to neutralise the odours.

Shell Bitufresh is specially formulated:

  • To reduce bitumen odours for a period of at least two weeks
  • for no impact on bitumen performance
  • to work across all bitumen grades including polymer modified bitumen and oxidised grades

Shell Bitufresh is currently available in 17 markets around the world.
