Sika Automotive recently announced it has been nominated for the 2015 Altair Enlighten Award, reportedly the only industry award dedicated to recognizing achievement in vehicle lightweighting.
Presented in collaboration with Center for Automotive Research (CAR), the Altair Enlighten Award reportedly recognizes achievement in weight reduction across the automotive industry—from motorcycles to passenger cars, light trucks to commercial vehicles and buses. This year, Sika’s ultra-high modulus adhesive (UHM) for mixed material bonding was nominated, along with 17 other lightweighting technologies.
