The new Haines City site will produce a full range of our latest admixture innovations, including new ViscoCrete and ViscoFlow polycarboxylate-based technologies for the concrete industry. Sika will create an additional eight plant and logistic jobs in Polk County.
“We are committed to providing the highest-quality solutions and services,” said Thomas Strittmatter, Executive Vice President – Concrete. “Sika’s investment in an admixture facility in Haines City further demonstrates our commitment to the concrete industry and, more importantly, to our current and future customers in Florida.”
Sika’s investment in the Haines City operations is part of the ongoing strategy to optimize supply access to our customers’ increasing demand near key Florida markets. This investment will not only improve finished goods logistics but also result in a significant reduction of 7,822 tons of CO2 by 2032, demonstrating our commitment to environmental responsibility.
