Category sponsorship
Envico has connected UK employers with accredited training providers since 2003. Safety managers, HR teams and site supervisors arrive on this site with a compliance gap already identified and a budget to close it. Category sponsorship puts your brand in front of them at exactly that moment.
What you are buying is position, not reach — your brand in front of someone at the point they have identified a need in your discipline, with no competitor alongside you.
One sponsor per category, from £225 for a three-month term — £75 per month. No rotation, no auction, no competing brands alongside yours.
See available categoriesA small audience, bought at the right moment
We are not a trade magazine and we do not sell reach. Envico is a specialist booking site, and the people on it are further down the buying process than a general safety audience. Someone reading a face fit testing course page has established that their organisation has a fit testing duty and is costing up how to discharge it. Someone on a confined spaces page is planning entry work.
That matters commercially, because training and equipment are bought together. An employer arranging fit testing training needs kits, hoods and solution. An employer booking working at height training is specifying harnesses and inspection. The purchase you want is adjacent to the purchase they are already making.
Envico is an independent intermediary, not a provider and not a distributor. We do not sell equipment, so we are not competing with our sponsors.

See available categoriesHow category sponsorship works
You sponsor a subject category rather than a single page. Your placement then appears on every course page within that category — wherever a buyer in that discipline lands.
1. Choose your category
First aid, working at height, fire safety, asbestos, confined spaces and gas detection, street works, water hygiene, scaffolding, cable avoidance, face fit testing, manual handling, PAT testing, dust control, lifting and LOLER, industrial PPE and site safety. Most sponsors take two or three adjacent disciplines.
2. Supply your creative
Logo, a one-line headline, two lines of copy and a destination URL. Your placement appears as a labelled tab on the edge of the page that opens on hover.
3. Go live
Placements are usually live within two working days. Your destination link carries UTM parameters, so referred traffic appears in your own analytics and you can measure the placement against your other channels.

Common questions
What kind of audience is this?
Specialist rather than large. Everyone on a course page has already identified a training requirement and is arranging how to meet it — they are buying, not browsing. The rate reflects that: it is set low enough that a single order recovers it, rather than priced on volume like a trade publication.
How do I measure whether it is working?
Your destination link is UTM-tagged, so every visit we send appears as a distinct source in your own analytics. You measure it the same way you measure any other referral channel, using your own numbers rather than ours.
Can I sponsor more than one category?
Yes, and most sponsors do. Add three or more to your basket and the multi-category rate applies automatically at checkout — £540 for three months rather than £675. For more than three, get in touch and we will quote.
Is there a minimum term?
Three months, billed as a single payment of £225 per category. Display advertising rarely shows a reliable pattern in less time, and category exclusivity means a shorter term would block the slot for little benefit to either side.
Is this a paid link for SEO purposes?
No. All sponsored links carry rel="sponsored" and pass no ranking signal, in line with Google's guidelines. Sponsorship is bought for the audience, not for links, and we will decline enquiries seeking link equity.
Do you sell equipment yourselves?
No. Envico is an independent training intermediary. We do not manufacture, stock or resell equipment, so sponsors are not competing with their host.
What happens when my term ends?
We will contact you before it ends to discuss renewal. If you choose not to renew, the category is released and becomes available to other suppliers.
