Sika Expands Operations in Dubai and Broadens Production to Include Epoxy Resins
In addition to concrete admixtures, Sika will now also produce epoxy resins in the United Arab Emirates for the local flooring target market.
Sika recently announced that it is expanding its production capacity in the United Arab Emirates with the commissioning of a new manufacturing facility in Dubai. In addition to concrete admixtures, epoxy resins are now being produced locally for the flooring target market. The site in Dubai was established in 2018 as a strategic distribution and sales center for the region.
Sika reports that it has decided to invest in the expansion of its manufacturing facilities at the Dubai site in order to increase flexibility in production, shorten delivery times, optimize cost structures, and reduce inventories. The locally produced epoxy resins are an important component of Sika’s flooring solutions. These products are used to seal the surfaces of industrial floors and flooring for private homes in order to ensure that the floor coverings are hard-wearing and resilient to mechanical and chemical exposure.
