ATDM, a leading supplier of gilsonite from Iran and the UAE, proudly supplies natural asphalt to global buyers who want strong, reliable, and long-lasting performance in their projects. Right from the beginning, it is important to know that natural asphalt offers unique strength, excellent heat resistance, and dependable adhesion, which makes it a top choice in many industrial and construction applications.
Natural asphalt forms deep underground over millions of years through the natural transformation of heavy petroleum materials. Because this process happens slowly under pressure and heat, the result is a strong, solid, black mineral with powerful binding properties. Unlike synthetic additives, Asphaltite contains a perfect balance of natural hydrocarbons and minerals, which improves the performance of many products.
This material blends smoothly with bitumen, paints, coatings, and construction compounds. Therefore, companies use it when they want both simplicity and long-term value.

ToggleIndustries search for materials that deliver durability without expensive processing. gilsonite does exactly that. Additionally, it works in different environments and supports many production systems without complex changes.
Some valuable advantages include:
Higher durability in demanding projects
Better heat and UV resistance
Stronger bonding in mixtures
Lower risk of cracking or deformation
More flexibility in cold conditions
Longer product life with fewer repairs
Because of these benefits, buyers consider Asphaltite a cost-effective way to upgrade the quality of their products.
Road builders rely on natural asphalt because it improves the performance of asphalt mixtures. Since pavements face heavy traffic, temperature swings, and moisture, they need strong binders that stay stable.
When added to asphalt mixes, natural asphalt helps:
Prevent rutting during hot seasons
Reduce cracking in cold climates
Increase load-bearing strength
Enhance pavement stiffness
Moreover, it melts and blends evenly with bitumen, making it easy for both drum and batch plants. As a result, engineers use it in highways, airports, city roads, and industrial areas.
Construction companies use natural asphalt because it naturally blocks moisture. Its waterproofing ability makes it ideal for buildings and infrastructure that need long-term protection.
It helps produce:
Basement membranes
Roofing sheets
Sealants
Protective concrete coatings
Tunnel and bridge waterproofing layers
With Asphaltite, waterproofing materials become stronger, more flexible, and more resistant to temperature changes.
Factories that produce inks and coatings use natural asphalt to achieve deeper black shades and smoother dispersion. Because it creates rich color and stable viscosity, the material improves both appearance and performance.
Benefits include:
Stronger pigmentation
Better scratch resistance
Improved durability
Stable drying behavior
Smooth blending with other raw materials
Therefore, Asphaltite is a dependable ingredient in printing inks, protective paints, and industrial coatings.
Oilfield service companies value natural asphalt because it stabilizes drilling fluids and reduces fluid loss. Its molecular structure helps seal microscopic cracks in the wellbore.
It provides:
Better filtration control
Higher thermal resistance
More stable mud systems
Reduced drilling fluid loss
Lower total operational cost
These advantages make it a standard component in drilling and exploration projects.
ATDM supplies several commercial forms to meet different operational needs:
