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.
