VSS International Inc Awarded 2025 ISSA President's Award for Excellence - Large Project

GLEN ELLYN, IL, March 21, 2025 – During the 63^rd Annual Convention of the International Slurry Surfacing Association (ISSA), March 4-7, 2025, in Rancho Mirage, CA, the ISSA President’s Award for Excellence - Large Project was presented to VSS International Inc. for their work with their Golden Gate National Recreation Area Project.

The ISSA President’s Award - Large Project, more than 1 million dollars, was established to recognize those contracting achievements that best exemplify the highest quality of workmanship and materials, as well as conformance to best practices as defined by the International Slurry Surfacing Association. 

This project involved 8.5 miles of crack sealing treatment to prevent the re-emergence of cracks through a new slurry seal application. In addition, approximately 100 distressed areas were patched, where the asphalt had deteriorated beyond the capabilities of the slurry seal alone. These repairs involved milling and replacing the existing asphalt to a depth of 4 inches. The project also included the installation of approximately 220,000 linear feet of pavement.
