CAPSA23 and its role in the asphalt and pavement industry  

Since its inception in 1969 in Durban, South Africa, the Conference for Asphalt Pavements for South Africa (CAPSA) has been a cornerstone in the calendar of professionals in the transport engineering sector. For 53 years, this conference has adapted to the changing socio-political and environmental landscapes. This event spotlit the latest global approaches and technologies, with a focus on embracing Industry 4.0. 

Naidu Consulting and its role in the asphalt and pavement industry  

As a frontrunner in the field of pavement engineering, Naidu Consulting places great emphasis on the routine and periodic maintenance of road pavements to extend the longevity of the country’s road network. Our approach to sustainability is anchored in the “reduce, re-use, and recycle” principles, which we apply in our pavement rehabilitation projects. 

To ensure environmentally friendly and innovative solutions, we’ve integrated cutting-edge technologies such as Building Information Modeling (BIM) and smart construction, including georeferencing for as-built documentation. This integration is made possible through our ongoing research partnerships with nationally and internationally recognized organizations, allowing us to incorporate social and environmental considerations into every project we undertake.  

Our rich portfolio in Road Rehabilitation extends across National, Provincial, Municipal and globally, showcasing our comprehensive expertise in the field. Furthermore, our unique approach to project execution includes packaging road rehabilitation projects in a way that fosters contractor incubation and job creation.
