Sika

Sika is a global specialist in the development of adhesives, sealants, and acoustic flooring systems tailored for the boatbuilding industry.

The company provides essential materials for both the manufacturing and repair of yachts and sailboats, focusing on direct glazing, teak decking, and robust bonding solutions. These products are engineered specifically to withstand the rigors of the marine environment, including prolonged exposure to saltwater, intense sunlight, and harsh cleaning chemicals.

The company’s flooring range offers specialized leveling and smoothing properties designed to reduce noise and vibration onboard. These systems meet the stringent fire safety requirements set by regulatory bodies and ship owners, ensuring a safe environment without compromising aesthetics.

Sika also produces polyurethane-based decorative flooring, which includes teak-effect finishes and various colored matte systems that align with modern yacht design trends.

To improve efficiency during the construction phase, Sika provides decorative flooring in prefabricated formats. This technology is particularly useful for complex areas such as balconies and stair treads, allowing for faster onboard installation and helping to manage project budgets.

By combining structural bonding with advanced damping technology, the company helps builders achieve a quieter and more durable finish for leisure boats and superyachts alike.
