With the commissioning of a new production facility in Chengdu, China, Sika has further expanded its capacity in the rapidly growing mortar market in China.
Mike Campion, Regional Manager Asia/Pacific, says: "The expanded mortar production in China enables us to address our customers' needs on an even more targeted basis. With a population of 15 million people, Chengdu is one of the most important economic urban centers in Western China. Here we see a growing demand for Sika’s Building Finishing solutions due to large investments in the construction sector. The strong business trend following the corona-related lockdown shows that we are on the right track: our mortar sales have increased significantly this year despite the crisis. We will continue to expand the business and bring two additional plants onstream in the growing Chinese market over the next eighteen months."
Sika is a specialty chemicals company.
