ENVIROSTIX™ ADHESIVE (ES)
EnviroSTIX™ is a pre-cured, moisture resistant, virtually VOC-free, poly-acrylic adhesive. It is machine applied directly to the back of commercial grade flooring materials with a patented process at the Base King facility in Dalton, GA. When the materials arrive to the job site, they can quickly be installed (after acclimation) with an easy peel-and-bond application. EnviroSTIX™ can be installed over existing flooring for ease of remodeling, when existing material is in good condition.
“ENVIROSTIX™ADHESIVE SYSTEMS are some of the most cost effective, high performance flooring products available on the market.”
