Our goal is Zero Harm.
We aspire to operate sustainably, without harm to people, the environment and the communities in which we operate.
East Coast Asphalt holds ISO 9001:2015 quality certification and OHSAS 18001:2007 (DQS) Occupational Health and Safety Management System certification. We are committed to a clean, safe and healthy environment for our employees, contractors, customers and surrounding communities.
We strive to establish and maintain an interdependent health and safety culture and to continuously improve our performance through set targets and objectives.
East Coast Asphalt implemented an environmental management system at both the East London and Mthatha plants in 2013. As part of this initiative all our plants were fitted with dust filtration systems, we monitor dust levels regularly, and we have installed rainwater collection systems to reduce reliance on municipal water sources.
Zero Harm is a journey. In the end we want to achieve the following…
