PETRONAS RPMB

OFFICIALLY APPOINTED PETRONAS BLENDER OF MODIFIED BITUMEN

PETRONAS Recycled Plastic Modified Bitumen (RPMB)

A national-scale circular economy programme — K2B is PETRONAS’s appointed blender. 

Converting post-consumer plastic waste into high-performance bitumen binders.

From Waste Collection to Road-Ready Binder

Post-consumer plastics are collected, cleaned, and converted into engineered chips at K2B's Simpang Pulai facility. These chips are compounded into bitumen under strict quality control, producing PRPMB for high-grade road infrastructure.

Environmental & Performance Gains

Every tonne of PRPMB diverts plastic from landfill while delivering a binder engineered for longer-lasting pavements — sustainability and durability, working hand in hand.

What it is

Plastic Waste, Engineered into High-Grade Road Binders

PRPMB is a PETRONAS proprietary technology produced by K2B processing facility utilising processed recycled plastic chips reinforcing 60/70 bitumen to create a stronger binder designed for demanding road applications. Produced at K2B's Simpang Pulai plant, it is Malaysia's first dedicated circular-economy modified bitumen technology.
