Sika’s purpose is to anticipate and meet future challenges by providing reliable, innovative, sustainable and long lasting solutions in the construction, building, and manufacturing industries. In everything we do, we provide a seal of quality which our employees, customers and all stakeholders can rely on – building trust every day.

Identity Fuels Innovation

Branding lends products a distinct identity and associates them with a specific set of values. This fact was recognized early in Sika’s history by founder Kaspar Winkler, who coined the company’s name and designed its logo. Having changed only slightly since its creation, the logo epitomizes continuity and solidity, and it is recognized across the world as synonymous with innovation, quality, and service.

The combined word/picture trademark has proved a valuable global asset during the Sika Group’s decades-long expansion. It has been successfully launched and is readily accepted across all cultural boundaries. Customers throughout the world can rest assured that they will receive Sika quality and service wherever they see the Sika logo.

Trademark Protection

Given the heightened awareness of the Sika brand, particularly the graphic word trademark, the company attaches high priority to a consistent and standardized use of the logo and the associated corporate image guidelines, and verifies compliance with them. The various attempts, in recent years, to copy the logo only serve to underline its enormous intangible value for the company.

The Sika umbrella brand, and some 930 Sika product trademarks, such as Sika ViscoCrete®, SikaBond®, or Sikaflex®, sharpen the company’s competitive edge. Hence the crucial role of trademark protection as a management task, performed both globally at Group level and locally at national level. In total, Sika held 11,383 trademark registrations in 165 countries at the end of 2018. Sika continuously monitors its trademarks and takes appropriate legal action in cases of infringement.
