VSSI & VSSE Bring Home Awards

VSS International & VSS Emultech Bring Home the Hardware!

At the PPRA - Pavement Preservation & Recycling Alliance Annual Meeting in early March, VSS International and VSS Emultech walked away with three prestigious awards—proving once again that quality, innovation, and expertise set us apart in pavement preservation.

2025 ISSA President’s Award for Excellence – Large Project: Golden Gate National Recreation Area

This project showcased VSS International’s ability to combine multiple preservation techniques for long-lasting results. Our team completed 8.5 miles of crack sealing to prevent reflective cracking through a new slurry seal application.

2025 ISSA President’s Award for Excellence – Small Project : The Sea Ranch Association, California Slurry Seal Project

A perfect example of pavement preservation meeting environmental harmony, this project involved applying a Type II slurry seal across The Sea Ranch community. Using 625 tons of western aggregate and 87 tons of PMCQS, our team selected a unique grey aggregate to blend seamlessly with the natural surroundings. The project was completed on time, with no safety incidents—a true testament to the team’s dedication to quality and efficiency.

2025 AEMA Excellence in Manufacturing Award: VSS Emultech’s West Sacramento Plant

This award is presented to qualifying plants that meet or exceed AEMA requirements, demonstrating best practices in all areas of manufacturing. VSS Emultech’s West Sacramento Plant has proven its commitment to quality, innovation, and safety—setting the standard for excellence in emulsion manufacturing.

At VSS International and VSS Emultech, we’re not just building roads - we’re setting industry standards and leading the way in pavement preservation excellence.
