Sika has announced that it is opening a new mortar production facility at Coatzacoalcos in southeast Mexico, which will take over the manufacture of concrete admixtures from the previous production site at Villahermosa. Sika has now established a nationwide chain in one of the largest domestic markets in Latin America.
José Luis Vázquez, Regional Manager Latin America: "The new production site at Coatzacoalcos will strengthen our position in one of Mexico's four main business centers. From here, we can supply construction projects in the metropolis of Mexico City, as well as the booming tourist centers on the Gulf of Mexico. Sika has invested strongly in the expansion of its production capacities in Mexico in recent years and is recording good growth rates in the country."
