The company generated strong growth rates and continued its growth trajectory, with a new sales record of CHF 4,448.7 million. This equates to an increase of 23.5% in local currencies. Sales growth in Swiss francs amounted to 23.1%, which includes a slightly negative currency effect of -0.4%. The acquisition effect was 1.1%.

Thomas Hasler, Chief Executive Officer: “In a market environment that remained challenging, we once again performed successfully, achieving strong business results in the first six months of 2021. With our innovative strength, our customer focus, and our leading market position, we secured strong growth in all regions and expanded our market share in a targeted manner. Covid-19 will continue to pose a challenge. We are well equipped and have proven a high level of resilience against a difficult economic backdrop, creating new growth platforms. Sika has a strong corporate culture and our local teams working with our regional and corporate organizations are ready for the challenges that the second half of the year may bring.”
