“I’ve been working with Sika and MBCC for several years now, and I think this acquisition by Sika can only be good for my business. Whether it’s a question of products, their availability, prices or technical and commercial service, I won’t have to ask myself any more questions and make trade-offs between the two. I now know that I can concentrate on my core business and grow my company with complete confidence. As far as we’re concerned, the acquisition went very smoothly, and I can see nothing but positives in it. Everything is really going to be a lot simpler, because I now have access to more products, on terms that suit me, all backed up by an efficient, locally based customer and technical service. So I‘m very confident about the future.”
