Joint Sealing
Facade Joints |
HIGH PERFORMANCE SEALANTS FOR FACADE JOINTS Tight joints are the key for durable and energy-saving facades. Today in facades despite of being made of concrete or other materials- joint sealing becomes more and more important. Elastic joint sealants are able to take the thermal movement from different materials and are therefore responsible for an air and water tightness of the facade. |
Floor Joints |
Highly Resistant Sealants for Floor Joints Joints in floors like in manufacturing industry and car parks are joints which are exposed to very high stress concerning mechanical resistance, abrasion resistance, chemical stress UV and movements. |
Speciality Joints |
Sealants for joints with Drinking Water Requirements In protecting one of our most important goods – water – it is necessary to use products which are tested to the different drinking water regulations in drinking water reservoirs. |
General Sealants |
Sikaflex® Construction Sikaflex-Construction is a one part, moisture curing, elastic joint sealant based on polyurethane. Suitable for indoor and outdoor applications in hot and tropical climates. |
Structural Bonding
Structural Strengthening |
Prefabricated CFRP Plates For strengthening of concrete substrates, prefabricated Carbon Fibre Reinforced Polymer (CFRP) plates can be bonded on top of surface. Sika offers a wide range of CFRP plates in different dimensions an E-modulus. |
Anchoring Adhesives |
Sika AnchorFix®-1 Solvent- and styrene free based two part polyester anchoring adhesive. |
Rigid Bonding |
Concrete Elements For bonding of of large scale concrete segments during segmental bridge construction work, Sika can provide special epoxy adhesives. Additional applications for bonding concrete elements with Sikadur adhesives also occur in many other areas including roofs, concrete pipes, retaining walls and tanks etc. |
Bonding Agents |
Sikadur® Sikadur®, Hi-Mod, is a multi-purpose, 2-component, 100% solids, moisture-tolerant structural epoxy adhesive. It conforms to the current ASTM C-881, Types I, II, and V, Grade-2, Class C and AASHTO M-235 specifications. |
Protective Coating
Concrete Protection |
Hydrophobic Impregnations Hydrophobic impregnations help increase the durability of concrete structures by reducing the water uptake behavior and preventing the ingress of water dissolved contaminants such as chlorides. The aesthetic appearance of the concrete surface will not be changed. |
Steel Protection |
Sikagard® Sikagard is a one part water repellent impregnation for absorbent cementitious substrates. It penetrates well into the open pores of the substrate, providing a durable water repellency, while still allowing water vapour diffusion in both directions. Suitable for hot and tropical climates. |
Fire Protection |
Sikacrete® Cement-based pre-bagged, dry mix fire protection mortar for wet sprayed application especially in tunnel construction. |
Tank Lining |
Sikagard®-62 Sikagard-62 is a 2-pack solvent-free high build coating material based on epoxy resin. |
Flooring
Electronics |
Systems: Resin Based Flooring Textured Conductive Coatings, Smooth Conductive Screed, Smooth Chemicals Resistant Conductive Screed, Smooth ESD Screed, Heavy Duty Monolithic Finish for Concrete and Smooth Flexible Chemical Resistant Conductive Screed. |
Chemicals / Pharmaceuticals |
Industry chemical Sika has a complete range of flooring solutions for industrial applications that require durability under severe chemical attack. In the manufacturing or in the processing of materials Sika have flooring systems for each factory area. |
Storage / Warehouses |
Industry Logistic Areas Large quantities of goods have to be produced quickly and on time for an efficient economy to function. In the manufacturing industries where these goods are produced, handled and stored, the production lines, warehouses, loading bays etc, all need to have the flooring designed and adapted to suit the specific conditions of each area’s operations. It is always essential to ensure that the stresses generated are not higher than the strength of the flooring system. Therefore, full understanding of the area’s operations and the floor’s performance requirements are most important. This includes the mechanical and chemical resistance, plus ease of cleaning, and dust prevention etc. |
Car Parks |
Flooring Car Park Parking has become a vital part of today’s mobile community, especially in metropolitan areas, all of which are growing at an ever faster rate. This means continually providing more parking spaces by building new car parks and frequently extending and refurbishing existing ones. With over 40 years of experience behind us within this specific sector Sika can offer complete solutions for the both new build and refurbishment of car park structures. |
