Henko A&T

What Henko A&T does

Henko A&T B.V. is a Dutch private limited company founded in 2019 and headquartered in Weert, Netherlands, that develops and manufactures a comprehensive range of adhesives, seam tapes, equipment, and tools for the installation and maintenance of artificial turf. The company's core technology centers on proprietary 2-component polyurethane adhesives (R300 all-weather, R305 good-weather, H400 repair kit) formulated with thixotropic properties to bond rough and smooth surfaces in both damp and dry conditions; seam tapes are produced in FIFA-compliant (C145, C345) and IRB-compliant (C230) variants. Manufacturing and R&D are co-located in an on-site advanced laboratory at the Weert facility, enabling in-house formulation control and batch consistency across the catalog.

The product portfolio is structured as an integrated installation system: adhesives are paired with self-adhesive and traditional seam tapes, glue machines with adjustable comb heights, joint rollers, sand spreaders, sub-base products (shock pads and geotextile), edge-weed-control tools (wire mowers, steel cutting heads, steel hoes), and accessories such as the Anti-Stick wax, gloves, and replacement parts. Complementary SKUs (HENKO 660 Line Boy, HENKO 10000 corner plate) target professional sports-field line marking and flag installation, with FIFA and IRB compliance as a positioning lever for higher-spec tenders.

Henko A&T operates a B2B go-to-market primarily through its own multilingual e-commerce website (available in English, Dutch, French, Greek, Spanish, and Bosnian), with a quote-based purchasing flow rather than public list pricing, indicating project-specific quotations to installers and construction firms. Revenue is generated from one-time hardware and consumable sales across adhesives, tapes, equipment, sub-base materials, and accessories, supplemented by training services and downloadable technical documentation. The target customer base spans landscaping professionals, sports-field constructors, and golf-course installers, with horizontal segmentation across these use cases.

Broad incumbents

• Mapei: Global construction-chemicals manufacturer with a dedicated line of adhesives and binders for artificial turf installations (e.g., Ultrabond Turf PU). Directly competes with Henko on turf adhesives, but also offers a much wider product portfolio across construction.
• Sika: Swiss specialty chemicals giant whose Sika sports-flooring range includes polyurethane adhesives and elastic systems for artificial turf and athletic surfaces. Comparable as a large, well-capitalized incumbent in the same end-use adhesive category.
• Bostik (Arkema): Industrial adhesives manufacturer (part of Arkema) producing polyurethane and hot-melt adhesives, including those for synthetic turf and technical textiles. Overlaps with Henko in PU turf adhesives and seam tape chemistry.
• Greenfields: Established global manufacturer of artificial turf systems including installation accessories and consumables. Comparable as a broader incumbent whose end-to-end turf system reach overlaps with Henko's installer-focused tools and consumables.
• FieldTurf: Large global artificial turf manufacturer and installer serving stadium, sports, and landscape markets. Comparable to Henko in targeting certified sports-field construction, though FieldTurf is a vertically integrated turf producer rather than a consumables-only supplier.
• Limonta Sport (Co-Creation Grass): Italian synthetic turf manufacturer offering complete systems for football, rugby, and landscape. Overlaps with Henko in the same end market of FIFA/IRB-grade installations and associated consumables.

Direct peers

• Hellbach Spezialklebstoffe: German specialist manufacturer of adhesives and seam tapes specifically for artificial turf installation. Closely comparable niche specialty competitor to Henko with similar product focus on PU turf adhesives and certified tapes.
• Condor Group: European synthetic turf installer and supplier of installation consumables including adhesives and seam tape. Comparable as a one-stop installer supplier in overlapping European geographies with Henko.
• SMG Sportplatzmaschinenbau: German manufacturer of specialized machines and equipment for sports-field construction and maintenance, including brushes, topkeepers, and turf-handling tools. Directly comparable to Henko's equipment line.

Regional players
