Sika has opened a new production facility in Ust-Kamenogorsk with production lines for mortar and concrete admixtures, as well as a modern laboratory. The plant is Sika’s fourth factory in Kazakhstan and is located in a key industrial region in the eastern part of the country. As a leader in construction chemicals, Sika is also involved in large-scale projects in Kazakhstan, a fast-growing market.

The opening of the new production facility in Ust-Kamenogorsk is an important strategic milestone that will further expand Sika’s presence in a key region. Kazakhstan is one of the richest countries in mineral resources, with an expanding mining industry and many companies in the chemical, energy, and automotive sectors located in the eastern part of the country. As these industries continue to grow, so does the need for residential housing, both market segments driving a strong demand for Sika’s solutions.

Christoph Ganz, Regional Manager EMEA: “The new production plant in eastern Kazakhstan will enable us to meet the growing demand from the mining and construction industries for high-performance mortars and concrete admixtures. With an abundance in minerals, Kazakhstan presents significant opportunities, and we are committed to serving this region with our innovative solutions.”
