Hello ,

Do you know what’s in your asphalt? Not all asphalt is created equal! Just “check the label”.

United Asphalts has manufactured the highest quality roofing asphalt for over 50 years. Our customers appreciate our consistently higher quality asphalt. That’s because we use only the highest quality crude oil that is oxidized in the heart of the United States, Denver CO.

Unlike our competitors United Asphalts' products do not contain any used motor oil or other fillers/extenders. Using fillers or extenders may drive higher profits, but it does not create a better product. And as an adhesive in a BUR system, doesn’t adding a lubricant like used oil seem counter intuitive?

Just take a look at a major competitive asphalt brand's SDS sheet and see for yourself. Notice up to 13% of other added material!

Not only does United Asphalts only use top quality raw materials, but we perform rigorous testing to ensure that we meet or exceed ASTM D-312-16 specifications.

All products are tested on a daily basis by our in-house lab. Each carton provides safety information – the Flash Point, proper EVT, and Type and is package on sturdy pallets in a shrink wrapped shroud to lengthen shelf life and usability which can dramatically reduce your inventory costs.

Because of our high quality standards, we are approved by all major manufacturers of BUR systems for NDL warranty projects. Ensuring top quality asphalt means an overall better system.

Just like you check the label of food to make sure the ingredients you put in your body are good, make sure your asphalt is top notch as well.
