Srinivasan noted that Sripath’s ongoing work in the Asia-Pacific region, particularly in Australia and New Zealand, has been a major source of pride. Over the past five years, Sripath Asia-Pac has established strong partnerships across the asphalt industry and collaborated with agencies to deliver measurable results. These partnerships have enabled the company to implement advanced solutions that improve road durability, streamline production, and deliver tangible benefits. These initiatives are also helping to set new standards for quality and efficiency in road construction by implementing innovative asphalt additives that can help produce safer, more sustainable roadways.  

 

2026 holds special significance for Sripath Technologies as the company prepares to celebrate its 20th anniversary. Srinivasan expressed pride in the company’s achievements and excitement about future opportunities. “I’m energized by the opportunities ahead to build more high-performing, sustainable roads,” he said. This milestone offers the company a moment to reflect on two decades of innovation and collaboration while looking forward to continued growth in global markets.
