Sika exploits further growth potential in Qatar
In Qatar, Sika has expanded its production capacity for concrete admixtures and has started manufacturing epoxy resins.
This latest investment in expansion in Qatar’s capital, Doha, is supposed to help Sika to continue building its business in this fast-growing region so that it can benefit from the dynamic development in the construction market.
Thanks to its local production facilities, Sika is also able to comply with the terms applicable to construction projects in the country. Qatar’s state sourcing policy stipulates that preference must be given to domestically manufactured products.
“Anticipating a substantial increase in demand and volumes”
Ivo Schädler, Regional Manager EMEA: “Our latest investment in Qatar is positioning us for continued growth and is strengthening our competitiveness in the country. In expanding our production, we are anticipating a substantial increase in demand and volumes for our high-value adhesives and flooring solutions. Our building-sector customers will benefit from an expanded and locally produced portfolio of Sika solutions which, in addition, eliminates long-distance transportation. This benefits the environment, our customers, and Sika.”
