Special-purpose Vehicle Construction

Tried and tested in the car, bus and commercial vehicle industry over many years, Sika adhesive bonding systems are now increasingly used in the construction of special-purpose vehicles.

Besides many other benefits, elastic-bonded cabs of tractors and construction equipment exhibit a considerably lower noise level, thus providing more comfort and safety for the driver.

The body assemblies of modern fire engines, for example, consist of self-supporting, elastic-bonded aluminium panels. None of these panels performs a purely aesthetic function: each one contributes to the structural strength of the vehicle.

Sika adhesive systems are also used for numerous structural bonding applications in caravans, catering trailers, delivery vans, ambulance vehicles, horse trailers, etc.
