Miscellaneous Products of Petroleum & Coal

Miscellaneous Products of Petroleum & Coal (SIC 2990) encompasses asphalt cutbacks, roofing tars, coal-derived chemicals, pitch, wax blends, and specialty sealants that support road builders, roofing OEMs, industrial manufacturers, utilities, and transport fleets. Producers sell through construction distributors and direct contracts, with service layers around lab testing, blending, and logistics for heated or hazardous shipments. Key risks include crude and coal feedstock volatility, EPA air and water emissions standards, hazardous waste and worker-safety rules, and liability tied to spills or product performance on critical infrastructure. In 2024-2025, the sector is pivoting toward low-VOC and bio-modified binders, recycling of asphalt shingles, carbon-capture pilots at refineries, and digital tank monitoring to cut downtime; domestic infrastructure funding is lifting demand while geopolitical supply shocks keep margins choppy.
