Tailor-Made Solutions for Every Kind of Lamination
Interior surfaces are an important part of the perceived quality of a vehicle, and Sika’s bonding technology for parts lamination allows designers to deliver attractive, soft feel surfaces, while meeting all of the related technical and environmental requirements. Reactive or non-reactive SikaMelt® hotmelt technologies, such as PUR or polyolefin adhesives, as well as our water and solvent-based SikaTherm® and SikaSense® solutions, provide excellent performance while meeting process- and OEM-specific requirements.
The dedicated range of translucent adhesives from Sika enables next-generation automotive interior design and lighting concepts by combining durable performance, optical clarity, and enhanced UV stability.
Sika offers adhesive solutions for mono-substrate bonding, enabling recyclable automotive interior components. Using materials from the same polymer family, such as PO hotmelts, allows for simplified recycling and supports circular economy objectives.
