Oltco is the UK’s leading resin driveway solutions provider and has been named the number one franchise set to take Britain by storm.

With 15 years’ experience as a solutions and installations specialist for the domestic and commercial markets, Oltco’s services include resin bound, recycle bound and rubber crumb.

With a passion for innovation and a desire to offer superior products, Oltco takes pride in taking the lead in the industry by developing and testing its own unique in-house blends.

This innovation also led to the launch of Recycle Bound, the world’s first driveway made from waste plastic already in circulation (plastic drink bottles, plastic food packaging and straws) from a plastic recycling point. Oltco is the world’s first company to offer this environmentally sustainable solution for homeowners, architects and commercial clients. Each square metre of Recycle Bound consists of the equivalent of 3,000 plastic straws.

Oltco is hoping to replicate its growth and success by offering franchise opportunities to the right partners.

Franchisees are offered support from day one. Oltco’s dedicated Account Managers mentor and help franchisees meet their goals and are there to offer guidance with any technical issues.

As part of the process, franchisees undergo an intensive two-week training course at Oltco’s HQ in Cornwall to learn everything about the business from installation and sales through to company ethos and values.

Continued support is also guaranteed to all franchisees which covers everything from generating and qualifying leads to advertising, invoicing, ordering and after-sales care.

Treating every franchise as a collaboration, Oltco’s selection process is rigorous to ensure that all franchisees are the perfect match for the business and its values.

People are at the heart of Oltco’s success. Each and every member of staff is handpicked and trained in the ‘Oltco way’. Oltco is looking for authentic, loyal franchisees who embody the company’s values through and through.

This opportunity is only available exclusively to five franchises per year to ensure maximum success and growth is achieved.

Oltco was founded in 2004, operating as a family business selling and installing non-slip solutions for domestic and commercial properties across Cornwall. The business quickly grew from strength to strength and began operating on a national scale, servicing clients across the country with its unique blends and bespoke solutions. Founder and Director, Tom Stringer trained as a mining engineer at Cambourne School of Mines and consequently gained a wealth of technical expertise, with specialist knowledge of epoxy and polyurethane resin coatings and screeds. As a result, Oltco is uniquely positioned at the forefront of resin solutions, offering innovation-led products and unparalleled expertise.

In 2011, John Pearce joined the firm as a Director, raising the profile of the resin-bound gravel side of the business.
