the two-story warehouse, which has 1,800 square meters of useable floor space;
it is also creating eight new jobs. The site currently has a workforce of 75
employees. Sika has been producing construction chemicals in Vorarlberg since

line, which will produce around 600,000 running meters of waterbars each year.
Waterbars are used to waterproof buildings and other structures. Around 40,000
tons of construction chemicals such as mortars, synthetic resin floor coatings,
concrete admixtures, waterbars and release agents are manufactured each year in
Bludenz for the Austrian market plus other countries in Central and Eastern
