TUFFTREK Modifiers
TUFFTREK modifiers showcase Bakelite’s capabilities in chemical innovation and manufacturing to offer the asphalt producer cost-effective products that can provide performance and cost savings over aromatic and base oil modifiers. Made from bio-based materials and non-hazardous, our modifiers represent a range of products that can lower the dosage needed to achieve lower PG while positively impacting ΔTc. We collaborate closely with customers to provide the product needed for their specifications.
