Asphaltite is sourced from multiple locations within Colombia, reducing dependency on a single mine or region. Other commercial sources around the world come exclusively from a single area, like Uintah County in the USA or the Pitch Lake in Trinidad and Tobago, making them more vulnerable to supply disruptions. Multiple producers in Colombia can ramp up production to meet increased global demand. Variations in physical and chemical properties depending on the specific deposit and region allow us to offer more tailored solutions and a wider spectrum of qualities. Also, the country’s tropical climate enables year-round production with minimal seasonal interruptions.

Colombia’s position provides easier access to both Atlantic and Pacific shipping routes. This central location allows for more efficient distribution to Europe, Asia, Africa, and the Americas. Colombia exhibits closer proximity to major oil-producing regions in the Gulf of Mexico, Middle East, West Africa, and South America. Hence, reduced shipping times can lead to lower transportation costs and faster order fulfillment. Additionally, Colombia has multiple major ports on both its Caribbean and Pacific coasts. This allows for route optimization based on destination and current shipping conditions.
