Diamond deadline extended to Oct. 31

Asphalt pavement companies have until the end of October to claim their 2026 Diamond Commendation from NAPA recognizing best practices in paving, plant management, and more.

Having a Diamond Commendation assures partners that the company follows best practices for quality, safety, and excellence, since it allows businesses to benchmark their operations against a national standard.

Self-assessments are available in five categories, which document and recognize the use of best practices for asphalt plant operations, terminal operations, asphalt production, and paving:

• Diamond Achievement
• Diamond Achievement Sustainable
• Diamond Terminal
• Diamond Quality
• Diamond Paving
