Envu Unveils Next Evolution in Turf Protection at 2026 GCSAA Conference and Trade Show
Expansion of Stressgard® fungicide family of products to address plant health needs
CARY, N.C. December 15, 2025 — Envu is bringing innovation, expertise and excitement for the future of plant health to the 2026 Golf Course Superintendents Association of America (GCSAA) Conference and Trade Show, with a strong focus on helping golf course superintendents grow healthier turf without the extra work. The centerpiece of the Envu booth (#3825) is the introduction of Signature™ XTRA Stressgard® Liquid fungicide* — first ever liquid fosetyl-aluminum (fosetyl-Al) formulation for the golf and fine turf-market — designed as a cornerstone for greens health programs while controlling foliar and root Pythium diseases, algae, and Microdochium patch. Golf course superintendents who sign up to learn more about Signature XTRA Stressgard Liquid fungicide during the GCSAA will be entered to win a TDR 350 FieldScout Moisture Meter – Spectrum and one set of 3-inch rods. Enter at the Envu booth (#3825).
“We’re incredibly excited to bring the new Signature XTRA Stressgard Liquid fungicide to golf course superintendents later in 2026,” said Mark Brotherton, product manager at Envu. “Our goal was to make a trusted solution even better, and this new liquid formulation does exactly that. The liquid formulation stays in solution for simpler and cleaner mixing, and no residual material left behind. It’s the proven protection golf course superintendents rely on — now delivered with greater ease and precision than before.”
Expanding the Stressgard Portfolio: A Smarter Way to Protect Turf From Within
The fungicide has a new and improved natural color to show the turf's natural health while supporting earlier spring green-up and turf quality for improved color and density. Backed by over 25 years of research and on-course use, Stressgard Technology boosts photosynthesis to strengthen plant health and increase stress tolerance, mitigating heat, drought, shade and traffic pressures.
“Think of the new formulation as an optimized antioxidant to help with abiotic and biotic stresses,” said Zac Reicher, Ph.D., green solutions team manager, Envu. “Fosetyl-Al moves more efficiently throughout the plant, to provide root to tip protection from destructive diseases before they damage turf.”
Agronomic Insights: The Envu Green Solutions Team
The Green Solutions Team, a group of trusted agronomic advisors, will be in the booth to help golf course superintendents with turfgrass challenges. Whether it’s disease prevention, stress recovery or integrated pest management, the team provides science-based guidance tailored to local conditions and course needs.
