Sika Offers Strong Adhesives

Aluminum frames and back bars add structural strength to the photovoltaic module. They protect the glass edge and the delicate interiors as well as provide the means for installation. In addition to defending against moisture and environmental attack, durable and reliable sealants provide long-term bonding and a degree of protection against mechanical shock.

Sika’s fast curing structural adhesives and sealants not only carry out these essential functions, but also open up new design opportunities where reduced frame materials or larger module sizes become feasible with our high strength Sikasil AS range.
