Sika Completes Redevelopment of Wishaw Manufacturing Plant
Sika UK is pleased to announce the completion of a large-scale redevelopment of their Wishaw plant near Glasgow, acquired in 2019, and one of four sites within the UK which is dedicated to manufacturing a range of mortar and render product lines.
As a result of this redevelopment, the Wishaw site is projected to allow the production of up to 35,000 tonnes of mortars and 12,000 tonnes of Sika’s market leading single coat render, Monorex per year – bringing the combined total for all Sika UK sites to over 100,000 tonnes of both mortars and façade products annually.
Previously dedicated to the manufacture of Enewall products, the site will now focus on the production of SikaWall; a range of renders and systems from the trusted Sika brand. Incorporating Sika’s renowned high levels of customer service with a quality product, the newly rebranded SikaWall range is one which customers and applicators can have confidence in.
The redevelopment of the Wishaw site further strengthens Sika’s capability to manufacture market leading products within the UK and consequently improves our ability to mitigate supply chain issues which have affected the building industry over the last two years.
Commissioning of the Wishaw site was carried out at the beginning of April with production scheduled to commence later in the month.
