Envirostik

What Envirostik does

EnviroStik (legal entity: Envirostik Holdings (UK)) is a Staffordshire, UK-based specialty chemical manufacturer founded in 2001 that formulates, manufactures and supplies one-part and two-part polyurethane adhesive systems plus matched seaming tapes and accessories used to bond synthetic grass carpets in sports and landscaping installations. Its product range spans high-strength adhesives (Ultra-Fix, Multi-Purpose, Flexibond), wet/cold-condition tolerant systems (Wet-Fix, Aqua Bond), and a sustainability-focused line (Eco-Fix Sport) manufactured using recycled end-of-life synthetic grass — claimed as a market first. Products are tested to governing-body standards (FIFA, World Rugby/IRB, GAA, LTA, FIH, England Hockey) and are used across nine sport segments plus domestic and commercial landscaping applications. The company sells both under the EnviroStik brand and on an own-label/private-label basis.

The business is run as a privately held, bootstrapped operating company with a single UK manufacturing facility in Stone, an in-house R&D laboratory staffed by chemists with over 100 years of combined industry experience, and direct sales to sports surface contractors, landscaping professionals and facility managers worldwide. Go-to-market is sales-led, supported by a website-driven catalogue, technical resources, datasheets and case-study marketing around marquee installations (Tottenham Hotspur Stadium, Leicester City FC Training Ground, Alexander Stadium). Industry recognition includes SAPCA Awards in 2023 (Aqua-Fix) and 2026 (Eco-Fix Sport, Product of the Year), and active membership in SAPCA and the European Synthetic Turf Council (ESTC). Revenue is not disclosed; headcount sits in the 11–50 band, indicative of a niche SMB with global project reach but limited operating scale.
