Specialist divisions working together to deliver high-quality infrastructure.
Associated Asphalt brings together a range of specialist divisions, each contributing distinct expertise to support coordinated infrastructure delivery across the UK and internationally.
Working as one organisation, these divisions operate to shared standards and a consistent approach to innovation, sustainability and safe, high-quality delivery.
Associated Asphalt includes AA Retail, AA Materials, AA Technologies, AA Aviation, AA Strategic Roads and AA Regional Contractor.
Our Group Companies support a single, joined-up strategy. Each business contributes specialist capability, while working to consistent expectations for quality, safety and performance.
This integrated approach allows us to deliver complex programmes with confidence, supported by strong technical oversight, sustainable thinking and disciplined delivery.
Each division brings a focused area of expertise. Together, they strengthen delivery capability and support clients across planning, delivery and long-term asset performance.
Surfacing services for retail and commercial environments
AA Retail delivers planned and reactive surfacing works for supermarket car parks, retail estates, forecourts and smaller commercial sites.
Teams manage access, phasing and tight operational windows to maintain safety and continuity in busy environments. This capability supports fast turnaround programmes and reliable delivery across the UK.
Asphalt production and materials development.
AA Materials operates the production plants and oversees the supply of asphalt and specialist mixes.
The team manages quality control, testing and mix development to support performance, cost efficiency and lower-carbon options. This strengthens supply chain resilience and consistency across delivery.
Engineering, testing and technical assurance.
AA Technologies provides the technical and engineering expertise that underpins Group delivery.

Specialist aviation infrastructure delivery outside the UK.
AA Aviation leads the work on aviation sites outside the UK, supporting surfacing and infrastructure programmes for international clients.
The team manages logistics, mobilisation and local compliance requirements to ensure safe, controlled and reliable delivery overseas. Experience gained through aviation projects also informs innovation and planning across the wider business.

Strategic road surfacing and infrastructure delivery.
AA Strategic Roads delivers surfacing, maintenance and civil engineering works on motorways and major A-roads, supporting national road programmes and critical transport infrastructure.
The team specialises in planning and delivering works in live road environments, coordinating traffic management, night working and phased programmes to maintain safety, control and network performance.
Regional highways and infrastructure delivery.
AA Regional Contractor supports local and regional road networks, delivering maintenance, improvement and civil engineering works in close collaboration with local authorities and delivery partners.
The team takes a coordinated, community-aware approach to planning and delivery, balancing programme requirements with access, safety and local priorities across towns, cities and rural areas.
Our scale and capability give clients confidence that complex infrastructure programmes can be delivered consistently, safely and over the long term. With coordinated teams, shared systems and experienced leadership, we support delivery across multiple stages, locations and operating environments.
Our culture is shaped by the people who work here. Skilled, experienced teams who take pride in their work and understand the responsibility that comes with delivering in live and operational environments.
Wherever we operate and whichever division is involved, the same expectations apply: plan properly, communicate clearly and do the job safely and responsibly. This shared way of working supports strong teamwork, trusted client relationships and delivery we are proud to stand behind.
Health, safety and wellbeing underpin every aspect of what we do. We create working environments where people are supported, properly equipped and encouraged to make good decisions every day.
Consistent standards are applied across all divisions, supported by training, assurance processes and continual review. This approach protects our people, our clients and the public, and supports safe, reliable delivery on every project.
We work to a shared set of principles that guide how projects are planned, delivered and managed. These principles bring together engineering expertise, practical thinking and accountability, creating consistency across regions and specialist teams, while still allowing each division to apply its own strengths.
Practical improvement that makes delivery better
We focus on innovation that solves real delivery challenges. That means improving efficiency, safety and performance on site, not change for the sake of it. Lessons learned across projects are shared, helping teams work smarter and deliver better long-term outcomes.
Lower-carbon thinking built into delivery
Sustainability is approached in a practical, coordinated way. From materials and methods to programme planning, teams consider whole-life performance and carbon impact, supporting more efficient delivery and resilient infrastructure over the long term.
Positive impact through people and places
Our work supports local employment, skills development and supply chains. By working closely with communities and local partners, we aim to leave a positive legacy through the way projects are delivered, not just the assets themselves.
We’ll connect you with the right expertise, whatever the scale or stage of your project.
