Sika Reports Preliminary 2025 Sales: CHF 11.2 Billion

In 2025, despite weak global end markets, Sika achieved full-year sales of CHF 11.2 billion, representing a 0.6% increase in local currencies (a 4.8% decline in Swiss franc terms, including a -5.4% negative foreign exchange impact).

Although the global construction sector continued to face headwinds, Sika gained market share across all regions. Full-year organic growth stood at -0.4%; excluding China’s construction business, organic growth was +1.2%. Acquisitions contributed 1.0 percentage point to growth.

In the EMEA region (Europe, Middle East, Africa), sales grew by 2.2% in local currencies (versus 7.3% in the prior year). The Middle East and Africa delivered double-digit growth, while Southern Europe showed solid performance. Eastern Europe saw progressive improvement throughout the year.

In the Americas, sales increased by 2.2% in local currencies (down from 11.2% in 2024). After a strong start to the year, market conditions softened in the second half. Data center investments remained a bright spot in the U.S., while Canada and Latin America held up relatively well.

In Asia Pacific, sales declined by 5.2% in local currencies (compared to +2.4% in 2024), primarily due to a double-digit drop in China’s construction segment. Excluding China, the region posted solid organic growth of 2.9%. India, Southeast Asia, and the automotive and industrial segments delivered particularly strong results.

Through its “Fast Forward” program, Sika is strengthening its organizational structure for the future and accelerating innovation and digital transformation to reinforce its competitive edge across all markets.

Mr. Thomas Hasler, CEO of Sika, commented: “Despite a challenging macroeconomic environment, we delivered modest growth in 2025 and further strengthened our market position. With optimized customer solutions, we upheld pricing discipline across all regions and expanded our market share. While we expect global market conditions to remain subdued in the first half of 2026, we enter the new year with a leaner cost base and a clear investment roadmap to accelerate innovation and digitalization. Our 33,000 employees have been instrumental in enabling Sika to consistently outperform the market and deliver value to our customers. On behalf of Group management, I extend my sincere thanks to them.”
