We make every kilometre measurable

REAT Global combines engineering expertise with advanced non-destructive testing to capture the true condition of roads and airfields - then converts that data into clear, defensible decisions.

  • Accurate, non-destructive data — structural, roughness, friction and texture, captured at network speed.
  • From data to decisions — GIS-based asset management and lifecycle cost analysis.
  • Smart, safe & sustainable — a resilient, future-proof approach for the next generation.
Our services

Diverse solutions, tailored to your network

A complete toolkit for assessing, modelling and managing pavement and airfield assets.

FWD

Falling Weight Deflectometer

A sophisticated non-destructive device that drops a calibrated weight to simulate a passing vehicle load. By measuring the resulting deflection, we evaluate the structural strength of the pavement and pinpoint weak points that direct maintenance on roads and runways.

RSP

Road Surface Profilometer

A vehicle-mounted 17-laser profiler engineered for road and airfield surveillance. It records the International Roughness Index and surface texture at traffic speed, supporting both network-level and project-level pavement assessments.

Gravel

Gravel Surface Profiling

A portable roughness-measurement tool using accelerometer technology to provide real-time IRI on sealed and unsealed roads. It requires no calibration, making rapid, repeatable condition data possible anywhere on the network.

Friction

Surface Friction Testing

A trailer-mounted device that measures the pavement friction coefficient through continuous trace and side-force measurement. Reliable friction data helps reduce accidents on both roads and airfield runways.

RAMS

Road Asset Management

Professional engineering paired with a GIS-based system that converts collected data into actionable solutions - enabling data-driven maintenance decisions and long-term network sustainability.

AI Analytics

Predictive Maintenance Analytics

Forecasts pavement deterioration, recommends optimal treatment timing, simulates funding scenarios, prioritises high-risk segments and compares intervention strategies through lifecycle cost analysis.

Powered by RoadSense

Field data to decision in record time

REAT processes its survey data through RoadSense, an intelligent road survey and data management platform. Roughness, friction and structural measurements captured in the field are uploaded, quality-checked and chainage-referenced in one environment - moving from route overview down to section-level review within hours of capture, not weeks.
