The European Bitumen Association, 7701 Eurobitume, is carrying out a new membership drive. As part of the package this includes a special promotion and early bird offer for the Eurobitume event. The new membership structure is intended to enable more organisations associated with the bitumen industry in Europe to join its ranks and benefit from Eurobitume’s pool of expertise.

The types of organisation identified by Eurobitume as potential new members include not only producers of bitumen in Europe, but also marketers of bitumen; polymer modified bitumen and emulsions producers. These include additive suppliers; hauliers and terminal operators; equipment suppliers; analysis and testing providers; and even non-profit corporations such as educational institutions and governmental organisations.

Eurobitume director general Aimé Xhonneux commented, “We recently broadened the joining criteria for members and created the additional category of ‘associate member’, so that more organisations with similar interests could come together, share knowledge and create one unified voice in Europe.”

As well as developing and communicating industry positions on important technical, HSE and regulatory issues, Eurobitume promotes the efficient, effective and safe use of refined bitumen and gives members access to a wealth of expert advice, technical information, industry data and safety guidance. Eurobitume members and associate members also have the opportunity to help shape the future of their industry within a highly respected and credible international association.
