Sika has joined the Offsite Alliance to drive the adoption of offsite manufacturing across the UK
Sika will draw on its leading status as a manufacturer and supplier of construction materials for a wide variety of applications, to drive the construction industry closer to the offsite manufacturing transformation it is calling out for.
The Offsite Alliance’s MMC division will work with modular manufacturers to look at how Sika’s products can be used as part of the offsite process.
Through a combination of action and collaboration, Sika will work with fellow like-minded organisations to promote best practice, share innovation and work together to create the high quality, sustainable homes of the future.
‘Working collaboratively with the MMC industry’
Simon Griffiths, head of sales for offsite construction at Sika, said: “We are delighted to have joined the Offsite Alliance. We see a perfect strategic fit.
“We have a great team at Sika, who in many cases, are already involved in driving forward industry and association agendas.
“We see this addition as a natural step forward to working collaboratively with the MMC industry, to raise the profile and standards, and to help deliver the aspirations of the industry.”
Founded in 2019, the Offsite Alliance works alongside leading organisations, industry bodies, government, local authorities, housing associations, and its members, to cultivate adoption of offsite manufacturing technologies across the residential sector.
Sika offers a wide range of products for sealing and bonding, roofing, building finishing, passive fire protection, damping and reinforcing, concrete, flooring, waterproofing and wall finishes for interior and exterior applications, and bathroom pod waterproofing and tiling systems.
