Adhesives and accessories

Structural adhesives for composite materials:

• PU structural adhesives for different materials and impact strength

• EP structural adhesives with high elastic modulus or temperature resistance

• MMA multi-use adhesives

We offer an extensive range of application-oriented system solutions from SikaAxson.

Sika is a leading manufacturer of adhesives with many years’ experience in the automotive, aviation, marine and general industry.

We have a broad range of polyurethane and epoxy adhesives for bonding and sealing fibre composites with one another and with other materials.
