Fast Curing Glass and Panel Adhesives with SikaBooster® Technology

Adhesives compatible with SikaBooster® and PowerCure technology offer a unique strength development profile. Allowing the removal of fixtures soon after installation enables automated industrial assembly processes. Vehicles may be moved to the next workstation quicker, cycle-time may be reduced or assembly steps following may be done earlier in the process.

SikaForce® 3C Adhesives for Optimized Production of Insulating Sandwich Panels

Truck-trailers are built for durability and lightweight to maximize longevity and payload of the vehicle. SikaForce® 3C Technology provides manufacturers of sandwich panels with unique flexibility and speed in production, resulting in up to 30% higher process efficiency and output.  

Sikaflex® STP Adhesives with low Surface Preparation Requirements

Sikaflex® STP adhesives are silane terminate polymers adhere without the use of a primer to a wide range of bonding substrates. This can help to eliminate bottlenecks in production and reduce manual operation. Sika's STP adhesive technology delivers higher strength than comparable SMP products and is easy to use in industrial assembly processes.

Long Working Time and Fast Curing with SikaForce® Curing by Design Adhesives

Latest SikaForce® adhesives for structural panel assembly offer an unseen combination of long working time and a swift snap cure effect, even at room temperature curing. They are thus optimizing your adhesive bonding processes to become more efficient and faster.
