E-Station issues dated, transparent quotations, so you can decide on clear bases rather than a vague estimate.<\/p>\n    <a href=\"https:\/\/e-station-groupe.fr\/en\/demande-de-devis\/\" style=\"display:inline-block;background:#23a76e;color:#fff;font-family:'Roboto',sans-serif;font-size:17px;font-weight:700;text-decoration:none;padding:15px 28px;border-radius:6px;\">Request a quotation \u2192<\/a>\n  <\/div>\n<\/section>\n<div style=\"max-width:900px;margin:0 auto;padding:0 20px;padding-top:44px;\">\n  <p style=\"font-family:'Roboto',sans-serif;color:#4a5560;font-size:18px;line-height:1.7;margin:0 0 16px;\">On a bulk bitumen purchase, a few dollars per tonne quickly multiply across thousands of tonnes. Understanding what makes up the price means avoiding paying a hidden margin or underestimating a logistics item that will send the budget off track. A price quoted without detail commits no one; a dated, detailed quotation does.<\/p>\n  <p style=\"font-family:'Roboto',sans-serif;color:#4a5560;font-size:18px;line-height:1.7;margin:0 0 16px;\">E-Station builds its <a href=\"https:\/\/e-station-groupe.fr\/en\/prix-du-bitume\/\" style=\"color:#23a76e;font-weight:600;\">bitumen price quotations<\/a> on this requirement for transparency, as a trader that sets out its components rather than delivering an isolated figure. It is the same logic that governs its entire <a href=\"https:\/\/e-station-groupe.fr\/en\/bitume\/\" style=\"color:#23a76e;font-weight:600;\">bitumen supply business<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n  <h2 style=\"font-family:'Roboto Slab',serif;color:#16314F;font-size:30px;line-height:1.3;margin:38px 0 16px;\">What really makes up the price of bitumen<\/h2>\n  <p style=\"font-family:'Roboto',sans-serif;color:#4a5560;font-size:18px;line-height:1.7;margin:0 0 16px;\">A delivered-to-site price adds up several independent items. Isolating them makes it possible to compare two offers on the same bases.<\/p>\n  <ul style=\"padding-left:22px;margin:0 0 20px;\">\n    <li style=\"font-family:'Roboto',sans-serif;color:#4a5560;font-size:18px;line-height:1.7;margin:0 0 10px;\"><strong>The barrel price:<\/strong> bitumen being a refining derivative, its price follows the tensions of the oil market, with a lag specific to this product.<\/li>\n    <li style=\"font-family:'Roboto',sans-serif;color:#4a5560;font-size:18px;line-height:1.7;margin:0 0 10px;\"><strong>The grade:<\/strong> a <a href=\"https:\/\/e-station-groupe.fr\/en\/bitume-35-50-en-12591-achat-gros-export\/\" style=\"color:#23a76e;font-weight:600;\">35\/50<\/a> and a <a href=\"https:\/\/e-station-groupe.fr\/en\/bitume-50-70-en-12591-achat-gros-export\/\" style=\"color:#23a76e;font-weight:600;\">50\/70<\/a> are not quoted at the same level depending on availability.<\/li>\n    <li style=\"font-family:'Roboto',sans-serif;color:#4a5560;font-size:18px;line-height:1.7;margin:0 0 10px;\"><strong>The packaging:<\/strong> the <a href=\"https:\/\/e-station-groupe.fr\/en\/conditionnement-du-bitume-futs-big-bags-vrac\/\" style=\"color:#23a76e;font-weight:600;\">bulk, drums or big bags<\/a> do not entail the same packaging and handling costs.<\/li>\n    <li style=\"font-family:'Roboto',sans-serif;color:#4a5560;font-size:18px;line-height:1.7;margin:0 0 10px;\"><strong>Freight and the Incoterm:<\/strong> depending on whether the price is FOB, CFR or CIF, it does or does not include transport and insurance to destination.<\/li>\n  <\/ul>\n<\/div>\n<div style=\"max-width:900px;margin:0 auto;padding:0 20px;\">\n  <h2 style=\"font-family:'Roboto Slab',serif;color:#16314F;font-size:30px;line-height:1.3;margin:38px 0 16px;\">Why the Incoterm changes everything in a quotation<\/h2>\n  <p style=\"font-family:'Roboto',sans-serif;color:#4a5560;font-size:18px;line-height:1.7;margin:0 0 16px;\">Comparing an FOB price at the port of departure with a CIF price delivered at the destination port without correcting for the difference means comparing two distinct things. The first leaves the buyer with freight, insurance and customs clearance; the second includes them. A \"cheaper\" offer can thus cost more once transport is added. E-Station systematically specifies the Incoterm of each quotation, in line with the <a href=\"https:\/\/e-station-groupe.fr\/en\/acheter-du-bitume-logistique-documentaire-incoterms\/\" style=\"color:#23a76e;font-weight:600;\">export documentation and Incoterms<\/a> chosen for the shipment.<\/p>\n\n  <h2 style=\"font-family:'Roboto Slab',serif;color:#16314F;font-size:30px;line-height:1.3;margin:38px 0 16px;\">A transparent quotation rather than a vague price<\/h2>\n  <p style=\"font-family:'Roboto',sans-serif;color:#4a5560;font-size:18px;line-height:1.7;margin:0 0 16px;\">The role of a serious trader is not to display the lowest price, but the fair price\u2014the one that reflects the market and holds over time. E-Station commits to this concretely.<\/p>\n  <ul style=\"padding-left:22px;margin:0 0 20px;\">\n    <li style=\"font-family:'Roboto',sans-serif;color:#4a5560;font-size:18px;line-height:1.7;margin:0 0 10px;\"><strong>Dated and valid quotation:<\/strong> each offer states its period of validity, for a clear commitment on both sides.<\/li>\n    <li style=\"font-family:'Roboto',sans-serif;color:#4a5560;font-size:18px;line-height:1.7;margin:0 0 10px;\"><strong>Itemised costs:<\/strong> product, packaging, freight and Incoterm are distinguished, never buried in a single figure.<\/li>\n    <li style=\"font-family:'Roboto',sans-serif;color:#4a5560;font-size:18px;line-height:1.7;margin:0 0 10px;\"><strong>Payment terms set in advance:<\/strong> no clause discovered along the way.<\/li>\n    <li style=\"font-family:'Roboto',sans-serif;color:#4a5560;font-size:18px;line-height:1.7;margin:0 0 10px;\"><strong>A single point of contact:<\/strong> the same contact follows the file from quotation to delivery.<\/li>\n  <\/ul>\n\n  <h2 style=\"font-family:'Roboto Slab',serif;color:#16314F;font-size:30px;line-height:1.3;margin:38px 0 16px;\">Price of bitumen in Africa: the weight of logistics<\/h2>\n  <p style=\"font-family:'Roboto',sans-serif;color:#4a5560;font-size:18px;line-height:1.7;margin:0 0 16px;\">On African destinations, logistics often weighs as much as the product itself. Distance to port, availability of unloading, customs formalities: each element influences the delivered price. E-Station factors these constraints into its <a href=\"https:\/\/e-station-groupe.fr\/en\/livraison-de-bitume-en-afrique\/\" style=\"color:#23a76e;font-weight:600;\">delivery logistics in Africa<\/a>, for a quotation that reflects the real cost through to the site, not just the ex-refinery price. Anticipating these items from the price request stage avoids nasty surprises at customs clearance and makes it possible to build a project budget that will hold through to receipt.<\/p>\n\n  <h2 style=\"font-family:'Roboto Slab',serif;color:#16314F;font-size:30px;line-height:1.3;margin:38px 0 16px;\">Payment and securing the transaction<\/h2>\n  <p style=\"font-family:'Roboto',sans-serif;color:#4a5560;font-size:18px;line-height:1.7;margin:0 0 16px;\">Payment is made by bank transfer: 50% deposit on order, balance on handover of the shipping documents. This framework protects both parties\u2014the buyer settles only on proof of shipment, the seller secures the commitment. The <a href=\"https:\/\/e-station-groupe.fr\/en\/lettre-de-credit-achat-bitume\/\" style=\"color:#23a76e;font-weight:600;\">letter of credit<\/a> remains reserved for reputable companies, after an initial deal of at least 500 M\/T settled by bank transfer.<\/p>\n\n\n<div style=\"max-width:900px;margin:0 auto;padding:0 20px;\">\n  <h2 style=\"font-family:'Roboto Slab',serif;color:#16314F;font-size:30px;line-height:1.3;margin:38px 0 16px;\">Comparing two bitumen offers without getting it wrong<\/h2>\n  <p style=\"font-family:'Roboto',sans-serif;color:#4a5560;font-size:18px;line-height:1.7;margin:0 0 16px;\">Placing two quotations side by side only makes sense if they rest on the same bases. The same grade first: a 50\/70 and an 80\/100 do not provide the same service and cannot be compared on price alone. The same Incoterm next: bringing each offer back to the delivered-to-site cost often reveals that the gap shown at the outset reverses once freight is included. The same packaging finally: bulk versus drums, the difference in packaging and handling changes the picture.<\/p>\n  <p style=\"font-family:'Roboto',sans-serif;color:#4a5560;font-size:18px;line-height:1.7;margin:0 0 16px;\">Added to this are less visible but decisive elements: the validity of the offer, the reliability of the stated lead times and the presence of a certificate of analysis guaranteeing the compliance of the batch. A slightly higher price backed by <a href=\"https:\/\/e-station-groupe.fr\/en\/inspection-qualite-bitume\/\" style=\"color:#23a76e;font-weight:600;\">controlled quality<\/a> and a lead time met often works out cheaper than an aggressive offer that results in a non-compliant batch or a delayed project. It is this complete reading of the price that E-Station seeks to make clear in every quotation.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n  <h2 style=\"font-family:'Roboto Slab',serif;color:#16314F;font-size:30px;line-height:1.3;margin:38px 0 16px;\">Frequently asked questions<\/h2>\n  <h3 style=\"font-family:'Roboto Slab',serif;color:#16314F;font-size:22px;line-height:1.35;margin:26px 0 10px;\">Why does the price of bitumen vary so much?<\/h3>\n  <p style=\"font-family:'Roboto',sans-serif;color:#4a5560;font-size:18px;line-height:1.7;margin:0 0 16px;\">Because it follows the price of oil and logistics pressures. A quotation reflects the market at the moment of the offer; that is why it is dated and valid for a specified period.<\/p>\n  <h3 style=\"font-family:'Roboto Slab',serif;color:#16314F;font-size:22px;line-height:1.35;margin:26px 0 10px;\">Does the price include transport?<\/h3>\n  <p style=\"font-family:'Roboto',sans-serif;color:#4a5560;font-size:18px;line-height:1.7;margin:0 0 16px;\">It depends on the Incoterm. An FOB price does not include freight; a CIF price does. E-Station always specifies the Incoterm to avoid any distorted comparison.<\/p>\n  <h3 style=\"font-family:'Roboto Slab',serif;color:#16314F;font-size:22px;line-height:1.35;margin:26px 0 10px;\">How to obtain a firm price?<\/h3>\n  <p style=\"font-family:'Roboto',sans-serif;color:#4a5560;font-size:18px;line-height:1.7;margin:0 0 16px;\">By specifying the grade, the volume, the packaging and the destination.
