4. NEWS FROM SIKA WORLDWIDE
AN EXCEPTIONAL NEW HOME FOR ELEPHANTS
Zurich, Switzerland
The children cannot wait to ride on them – and anyone
who has enjoyed an elephant ride at some time in their life
knows how much fun it is to be so near to these animals.
Elephants are large mammals. Traditionally, two species are
recognized: the African and the Asian elephant. The animals
are scattered throughout sub-Saharan Africa, and South and
Southeast Asia. Male African elephants, the largest living
terrestrial animals, can reach a height of four meters and
weigh seven tones.
These animals have several distinctive features, including
the long famous trunk used for many purposes, particularly
for grasping objects. They communicate by touch, sight, and
sound, also using infrasound and seismic communication
over long distances. Calves are the center of attention in the
female family groups and rely on their mothers for as long as
three years. Elephant intelligence has been compared with
that of primates and cetaceans. They appear to have selfawareness and show empathy for dying or dead individuals
of their kind.
To provide these sensitive animals with an appropriate
facility in a zoo, the primary focus must be on the elephants’
needs. Sika Switzerland recently provided some innovative
technologies that made a significant contribution to Zurich
Zoo’s unique new elephant building. The new elephant
enclosure is eight times larger than at present, offering ideal
conditions that are compatible with their species-specific
behaviour. The complex consists of a large outdoor park
plus a species-appropriate elephant house, which protects
them from outside weather conditions and provides them a
quiet place where they also receive their care.
The striking, bright wooden elephant house roof covering
an area of some 6,000 m² and weighing about 1,500 tons
is architecturally unique. This multi-layer roof structure is
sealed with the Sarnafil® Roof System against weather
conditions. It is supported by a filigree concrete structure.
In the newly introduced elephant stalls, Sikalastic® Polyurea
flooring and walls protect against corrosion by the highly
aggressive feces and urine.
Sika products are also used for the rain water tanks and
the treatment plant for the elephants’ bathing water. All
concrete work on the main building was carried out with
Sika® ViscoCrete® and sealed with the Sikadur-Combiflex®
System. As of spring 2014 you can visit the elephants in their
new enclosure! They are already looking forward to see you!

5. speed and strength for the anzac bridge
REFURBISHMENT OF GROUT BEARING PADS
ANZAC BRIDGE, SYDNEY NSW
The Anzac Bridge is a local landmark, for residents and visitors
of the Pyrmont area, along with any travellers coming from the
West of Sydney into the city.
The Anzac bridge was built in 1995 and it runs along side Darling
Harbour in the center of Sydney. The bridge is a large cablestayed style bridge spanning between Pyrmont and Glebe
Island. It forms part of the Western Distibutor, connecting the
Sydney CBD to the Western Suburbs.
As Australia’s longest span cable-stayed bridge, with
a length of 345 metres. The materials in this highly
trafficked roadway are under great stress.
The addition of a new maintenance walkway required a bearing
pad to be installed between the bolting plates and the original
bridge structure to provide additional strength and ensure
stability between the walkway and the bridge.
Baulderstone Contractors were chosen to complete the
remedial work on the bridge, and turned to Sika Australia to
provide an appropriate solution. Any solution provided needed
to be fast-setting, with a high early strength to return the bridge
to service as soon as possible.
Sika Australia specified SikaGrout® HES, a cementitious grout
with high early strength properties as the best solution for
Baulderstone Contractors. SikaGrout® HES can be mixed to be
either flowable or trowelled on, depending on the application.
Flowable grout was the preferred consistency for the Anzac
Bridge, as the grout needed to be applied beneath the walkway
and around the bearing pad.
With a compressive strength of 20MPa after 2 hours cure, and
a final setting time of 25-35 minutes, SikaGrout® HES was the
perfect product specified for this application
Sika Australia is well known for its range of fast curing and high
strength products, positioning them ahead of its competitiors.
Sika Australia’s research and development team has extensive
experience in developing products for highly specific
applications, making it easy to trust Sika with your complex
construction projects.

6. COMPLETE SYSTEM
The Hills Shire Council Building is a visual landmark
for the area, complimenting the beautiful local
scenery with its reflective glass panel facade.
But this building didn’t always look so pretty.
This project was begun over 6 years ago, standing
unfinished for some time, due to a range of factors.
The Hills Shire Council Building challenge was taken
on by the team from Keystone Building Solutions, an
approved Sika contractor, working on improving the
building at all levels.
Sika Australia provided solutions and product systems
to rectify a number of major areas, creating a complete
solution from basement to roof.
THE ROOF:
Sika specified the new Sikalastic®-560 liquid applied
membrane (more information on page 14) for the
entire roofing area, creating a high performance
waterproofing solution for this exposed area.
Sika Fleece®-120 was used between layers of the
membrane to reinforce the membrane across all three
roof sections, a total area of 3,000m2.
The system provides a fully bonded, reinforced liquid
waterproof membrane to prevent internal water leaks
from the roof areas into the building structure due to
minor surface cracks and defects in the concrete deck.

7. FOR THE HILLS
THE PODIUM
The Podium is an outdoor area within The Hills Council
Chambers, and was designed to create green space
for the offices, providing an area to relax and creating
a beautiful outlook for staff. A large number of plants
being set into planter boxes in the area and the boxes
were leaking into the building and causing damage.
SikaTite®-BE, a bituminous waterproofing membrane,
was chosen for the internal waterproofing of this area
due to its hard-wearing nature and short application
time.
THE BASEMENT
Sika Combiflex® SG Waterproofing Joint Tape and
Sikadur® 31 Epoxy adhesive were used to target
strength and durability in the car park and podium deck
slab expansion joints (due to an incorrectly installed
hypalon jointing system). The area also required a
rebate infill to be reinstated over the expansion joints,
which was completed using the SikaGrout® Deep Pour
THE BALCONIES
The balconies were tiled in a large grey square tile
designed to compliment the anticipated reflections
in the glass and contribute to the modern finish of
the building. SikaCeram® Flex tile adhesive was
applied to 3,000m2 of balconies and podium deck
areas, providing a flexible adhesive that will allow for
movement in the structure and varying pressure on the
tiles over the life of the building.
THE FACADES
The original building facade was finished with the
iconic glass that makes it is recognisable from
kilometres away. A review of all façade joints was
necessary to create the iconic, beuatiful aesthetic that
the building is now recognised for.
Sikaflex®-PRO polyurethane sealant was used to
re-seal the facade and provide flexibility between the
panels to allow for structural movement over time to
happen.
Sikalastic® 150 liquid membrane was chosen to
waterproof the basement and it covers the entire
internal block wall area to prevent moisture ingress to
the lower basement carpark sections.
Bringing a building such as this back to life reflects
well on Sika’s ability to provide a system that comes
together in all its parts, creating a wholistic solution
that will see the building in service for years to come.
Once completed, these different products created a
system in the basement that will prevent water from
leaking into the car park area, and damaging the
foundations of the building.

8. POLYURETHANE CONCRETE FOR FLOORING
Sika has announced it will be extending the Sikafloor®
PurCem® Polyurethane Cement/Concrete flooring technology.
Sikafloor® PurCem® is the leading flooring technology used in
today’s food and beverage processing facilities, and Sika can
now offer food processors and manufacturers a durable,
long-term floor that is “fast turn-around”.
Polyurethane Cement based system setting times are, by
industry standards, reasonably quick. However, there are
many instances where fast-cure performance is required, such
as overnight projects in commercial or industrial applications,
repairs to existing floors due to undue wear and tear and low
temperature applications where it is necessary to speed up
set times.
What are the characteristics of Sikafloor® PurCem® that
provides advantages over others floors?
There are many types of industrial flooring on offer to the
market, such as ceramic tiles, vinyl and resin based options.
The tiling option has a significant weakness, due to its large
number of joints, which traditionally degrade over time. The
welded seams of vinyl give way over time, also greating
weakness in the floor. Both ceramic tiles and vinyl allow water
and foodstuffs to penetrate and degrade the floor, resulting in
failure to comply with food grade regulations and expensive
down-time rectification.
The other option is seamless resin flooring, or otherwise
known as “epoxy flooring”, which has been used widely in
the food industry for many years. Although there has been
some decline in the use of epoxy floors in the last ten years,
nevertheless epoxy floors have been proven to be the best
flooring options for areas such as warehouses, stockrooms,
change rooms, amenities, lunch rooms and light traffic access
ways due to its high durability.
Polyurethane concrete has superior resistance to general
impact and abrasion, offering greater resistance to food acids,
animal fats, thermal shock and greater temperature range
acceptance (-20 to +120 degrees).
The launch of the Sikafloor® PurCem® Accelerator technology
allows the system to be completed quicker than ever before.
Depending on site conditions, most intallations can be
completed within 24 hours.
Inferior manufacturers continue to drive the price down in the
market place, making it very difficult for consumers to know
any featured differences from a top quality product, such as
Sikafloor PurCem. Polyurethane concrete is the best all round
flooring solution for the food environment. There is now wide
spread use of this technology in all areas of the food industry,
and is suitable for use on large sites, down to small commercial
food outlets.
If you would like more information on Sika’s range of food
flooring products, or any of our products, please call us on

9. BREWERY BROUGHT BACK TO LIFE
CERAMIC TILING REFUBISMENT
KENT TOWN, SOUTH AUSTRALIA
Constructed on the site of one of Adelaides first
breweries, this luxury apartment complex was completed
approximately 12 years ago. A fabulous example of the
industrial architecture of the late 1800’s, this apartment
block is hailed as a prime example of the conservation and
development possibilities of often overlooked, culturally
significant industrial sites.
Unfortunately, water was ingressing through the tiled
balcony and penetrating into the garages of the apartments
below, damaging the concrete roof in the garage (that
formed the balcony) and the tiles and steel balustrading.
Sika Australia was approached by a remedial engineer to
provide a total system solution, including strengthening
products, waterproofing and ceramic tiling adhesives
and grouts.Sika’s ability in providing products for all
stages of a project defines it’s buisiness practice and is
a key cornerstone of Sika’s reputation in construction.
The SikaCeram® tiling system was developed and
introduced to the Australian market in July 2012, complete
with products for priming, levelling, waterproofing,
adhesives and grouts. This system was chosen as it offered
a total solution from the SikaTite® PUD Plus waterproofing
membrane applied to the screed, to the tile adhesive, grout
and sealant around the perimeter.
The Brewery Apartments refurbishment was completed
in two stages. First, waterproofing and strengthening
product applications were completed. Sikagard® 700S,
a silane/siloxane mineral substrate impregation, was
applied to the dividing wall between the two balconies to
prevent moisture wicking into the slab.
Given the water penetration in the concrete slab,
Sika Ferrogard® 903, a corrosion inhibiting liquid
impregnation, was applied to the slab to delay the onset of
new corrosion and slow the rate of any existing corrosion.
Finally, once refurbished and watertight, the balconies
were completed with ceramic tiles. Total Commercial
Ceramics were employed to complete the tiling work,
utilising the SikaCeram® Super adhesive and SikaCeram®
Grout in White.
With a 12 year system warranty, Total Commercial
Ceramics were confident the SikaCeram® System solution
would stand the test of time and ensure that this beautiful
brewery is standing for many years to come.

10. FAST CURING SILICONE ‘SEALS’ THE DEAL
Nothing sums up the adage ‘time is money’ as
effectively as a delay in building construction. Projects
featuring faster construction processes are valuable
role models - as seen in Innaloo, WA.
Number 2, Tassels Place, situated in the Perth suburb of
Innaloo, is a multi-level, glass façade office building with
four levels of glazed curtain walling above ground-level shop
fronts. The building was designed by Hassell Architects. With
its prominent glazing, construction schedules were tightly
aligned to the effective and timely production and installation
of 28.38mm Soltech Grey double glazed units.
“With a short production time, the requirements were high,”
says company spokesperson Chad Pappas. “But we realised
that something as logical as fast-curing silicone products
could optimise our timelines, so we approached Sika for
help.” Sika provided Pappas with a range of structural
glazing silicones, including Sikasil® SG-500 CN, which is a
two-component structural glazing silicone known for its fast
curing times; and Sikasil® WS-305 CN, a one-component
weatherseal sealing silicone. Sikasil® WS-305 CN is a highperformance structural silicone adhesive, with a skin time of
35 minutes and a tack-free time of 180 minutes. With a snap
time of just 50 minutes and a +/-50% movement capability,
Sikasil® WS-305 CN provides the perfect solution for facades.
The swift curing time of the Sikasil® SG-500 CN, in particular,
was of crucial importance to Pappas Commercial Windows,
as success was contingent on initial fast-tracked production
schedules. The project underwent the Sika Facade
Management process, involving a project-specific design
review, adhesion testing and operator training. This was
provided as part of the service offered by Sika, and was
crucial in ensuring that both the products were appropriate
for the job, and that the applicators were well trained to
complete the job.
According to Kristopher Webb from Sika Australia, the
company made special provision to supply Pappas with extra
quantities of product for the project. Local knowledge was
also a crucial benefit – Sika Australia has had an established
presence in WA for more than 15 years – and so the company
was able to offer finely tuned estimates of curing times
and descriptions of performance characteristics in Perth
conditions.
“We have always appreciated that high-quality products need
to be backed up with equally high service levels,” Kristopher
says. “In a project like this you have to view product and
service as a package deal.”
The completed building is now an iconic landmark in the
area, setting benchmarks not only for the quality and finish
of the structure and its materials, but also for the efficiency
and speed of its construction.

11. WATERPROOFING RYMAN HEALTHCARE
Ryman Healthcare design, build and operate healthcare
facilities in Australia and New Zealand. It is dedicated to
being the leading provider of retirement and healthcare
facilities for the elderly.
Ryman Healthcare’s new facility in the Melbourne suburb of
Wheelers Hill is servicing the needs of the local community,.
They approached Sika Australia to provide a waterproofing
solution for the facility, which includes a single level
basement that will contain facility services and carparking.
Ryman required a basement tanking sheet membrane
system capable of providing intrinsic waterproofing, without
reliance upon backfill compression. Watertight integrity
of the basement is paramount to the overall operating
capability of the healthcare centre.
In addition to waterproofing the slab on ground, the
waterproofing system were also supplied to the precast
concrete panels. Watertight integrity between both
applications has to be ensured.
The SikaProof® A12 fully bonded FPO [flexible polyolefin]
waterproofing membrane was selected by Ryman
Healthcare for its ability to meet the waterproofing
requirements for a continuous system.
SikaProof® A12 was supplied to the precast panel
fabricator who detailed the membrane into the casting
beds before pouring the panel pieces.This application
procedure provided precast panels with a clean and
precise waterproofing membrane, which provided fast
and simple connections on-site and a watertight finished
product.
Total Seal Waterproofing installed the SikaProof® A12
membrane on-site prior to the pouring of the basement
slab. Total Seal also caulked the pre-cast panel joints
on-site using Sikaflex®-PRO polyurethane sealant. After
caulking, the panel joints were detailed using SikaProof®
Tape 150.
Finally, Total Seal completed the detailing of the basement
slab membrane to the pre-cast panel membrane, (created
a completely watertight system) thanks to the broad and
versatile range of Sika products.

12. 33 years of sarnafil
The AIS Arena is a premium facility with a variety
of uses, including concerts, sporting events, trade
shows and exhibitions.
With its unique skyline, the original builders
knew durability and extended performance were
key factors for this building to ensure both its
relevance in the market place and its continued,
uninterrupted service.
Sika Sarnafil® was applied as a key element of the
roofing protection, and has been in service on this
roof for the past 33 years.
In 1980, designers Phillip Cox Partners required a
roofing solution that could protect the concrete roof
of the AIS Arena. Its unusual design and reverse fall
to the centre of the structure demanded a proven long
term waterproofing solution. In addition, the harsh
climatic environment of the Canberra region was taken
into consideration when the Sika Sarnafil® PVC sheet
membrane was originally specified for this project.
After 33 years of installation, Sika Technical
representatives decided to visit the site and check
the strength of the membrane. This level of after-care
service is part of the full service that Sika offers all its
key customers
The Sarnafil® G membrane was selected because of
its proven international long term performance and
its ability to withstand large variables in temperature
and UV radiation. The membrane was fully adhered
directly to the concrete substrate, creating a completely
waterproof solution for the roof of the AIS Arena.
11
Synergy / News from Sika
After 33 years of exposure under the harsh Australian
sun and a range of weather conditions including flash
floods and drought, the Sarnafil® continues to perform
and operate as a cohesive membrane, performing its
origianl function of protecting the concrete substrate.
The AIS was kind enough to let Sika take a sample from
the roofing so it could be sent back to Sika Head R&D
Office in Switzerland for testing. This process of quality
control, at an international level using field samples, is
a core part of the Research and Development process
for all Sika products, as conditions consistently test our
products and push forward our innovations.
It was determined that the roofing membrane still
retained many of its key characteristics, relative to
elongation and UV Resistance. This supports Sika’s
statements from independent authority, the British
Board of Agreement (BBA UK) that Sika Sarnafil fully
exposed membranes has a proven, greater than 35
year life expectancy. Technology, product quality and
consistency of service are just a few key selling benefits
that Sika Sarnafil has to offer and it has been specified
successfully on a number of important projects around
the country, including the Wothaggi Desalination Plant
in Victoria and the American Embassy, also in Canberra.
Sarnafil has been proven internationally to last for 50
years without replacement, making it one of the best
sheet roofing membranes on the market and the perfect
solution for both the new construction and refurbishment
of roofs across the country.

14. HILTON MANUFACTURING’S SOLAR HARVEST
COMMUNITY PROJECT
SEPTEMBER, 2013
Sika has long been concerned with environmental sustainability
and the questions surrounding how we will continue to operate
on this planet after the resource boom. Sika Australia also
have a vested interest in community involvement and providing
solutions that benefit not only the business and our partners,
but the communities in which we operate.
The Hilton Manufacturing Solar Harvest Experience is a roof
top solar installation that was first dreamed up by Wayne
Pearce at RedT Project Management in conjunction with ABB
Australia. The project concept was developed and caught
Hilton Manufacturing’s interest, as it was pitched (and has been
confirmed) as the largest installation of its type in the world.
Hilton is a parts manufacturer that Sika have dealt with in the
past, and Sika were thrilled to supply an appropriate solution.
Sika Australia supplied the Sikasil® SG-20, a high strength
structural silicone adhesive, which has outstanding UV and
weathering resistance, as well as excellent bonding properties
for glass. These features were what made the product not
only a market leader, but the most appropriate solution for the
project.
Sikasil® SG-20 was used in the installation of all 340 solar
panels to the 680 pivot plates and brackets across the roofing
area. By providing a watertight seal between the bracket and
the solar panel, Hilton Manufacturing could be sure that there
would be no corrosion to the galvanised steel and laser cut
aluminium panels that make up the solar array.
The Sikasil® SG-20 also provided a fail safe when used with
traditional fastening methods. This will ensure the longevity of
the installation for years to come.
Sika Australia were proud to donate the Sikasil® SG-20 required
for this project, because of the obvious importance of the
project in moving towards a sustainable future in Australia, and
because of Hilton Manufacturing’s commitment to community
engagement through this project. The viewing platform is
being used particularly for school and community groups;
they are invited up onto the viewing platform to learn about
the application of solar panels to large format roofing and the
place of solar energy in Australia’s future.
The result is a tremendous accomplishment, both for Hilton
Manufacturing and the local community, as they look towards
generating their own solar power in the future and inspiring the
community towards a greener future.

15. SIKALASTIC®-560 LIQUID MEMBRANE
PRODUCT LAUNCH
July, 2013
Liquid waterproofing membranes are an adaptable solution for
both professionals and DIY users, working well in a number
of areas including roofs, floors and gutters. However, many of
these do not offer UV stability, and subsequently deteriorate
quickly in exposed areas, forcing them to be replaced before
major damage occurs.
Sikalastic®-560 has been specially engineered for high
performance waterproofing in exposed condition; it can be
applied with either a brush for precision in detail work or with
a roller for entire roof areas. The product is a one-component
solution, creating ease of application and efficiency.
The Sika Co-Elastic Technology (CET) found in Sikalastic®-560
combines the high performance of a polyurethane dispersion
with the well-known properties of an acrylic.
This offers an environmentally and consumer friendly alternative
for different product technologies.The product does not contain
any reactive components, is solvent-free and will therefore be
only marginally affected by regulations in the future.
Sikalastic®-560 holds GECA Certification, meaning that it is
an environmentally responsible choice and will contribute to a
better Greenstar Rating in many buildings.
For Sika, ecological efficiency means delivering equivalent or
better solutions, while consuming less materials and energy,
are recognised as favourable to the environment.
GECA approved products are becoming increasingly important
for architects, engineers and specifiers, as Australia becomes
more and more environmentally conscious.
This approval rating gives specifiers the confidence to in these
specifiers that they are provide an environmentally friendly
solution for their clients and that they are actively contributing
to the Green Star rating of the buildings. Sika Australia is proud
to partner with GECA to provide products that are better for the
environment and meet the increasing need for environmental
consciousness.
