Imagine a road that not only withstands heavy trucks, harsh weather and decades of wear but also gives back to the planet while doing so. At VEA Road Maintenance and Civils( VEA Roads ) we believe that the terms “eco-friendly and “high-performance” are not mutually exclusive. Far from it. We’re pioneering materials and methods that keep our roads strong and resilient while dramatically reducing our environmental footprint.

What if you could build a road that uses recycled rubber, warm-mix asphalt, solar-reflective aggregates, or industrial by-products and still hits the same rigorous standards of strength, durability, and safety?
At VEA Roads we’re actively working towards incorporating:
- Recycled asphalt pavement (RAP): Using milled, reclaimed asphalt keeps the waste out of landfills and reduces the need for virgin bitumen.
- Warm‐mix asphalt (WMA): Produced at lower temperatures, WMA cuts energy consumption and greenhouse-gas emissions without compromising compaction or stability.
- Industrial by‐products (like fly ash or slag): These supplement traditional aggregates and reduce the demand for mined materials, while delivering excellent mechanical properties.
- Durable binders and modified mixes: Ensuring that our eco-friendly choices still meet the heavy loadings, climatic challenges and long service lives required by key clients such as the South African National Roads Agency and the Gauteng Department of Roads and Transport.
If you’re a municipal planner, highway authority, or a private developer. You need a pavement solution that won’t fail you. At the same time, you’re under growing pressure to demonstrate sustainability, reduce carbon footprints, promote circular economy practices, and leave a legacy that communities can be proud of.
With VEA Roads’ approach, you get:
- The robust track record of a company ranked in South Africa’s top tier for construction and road‐maintenance excellence.
- A commitment to community and Earth, via BBBEE participation and inclusive employment, meaning your project supports people as well as pavement.
- A future-proof investment: road surfaces that cost less to maintain, perform better, and align with the global push toward greener infrastructure.
