1 TARGET MARKET CONCRETE SIKA CAPITAL MARKETS DAY 2017

2 CONCRETE WHEN YOU NEED TO RELY ON THE STRENGTH OF THE CONCRETE 2

3 Sika ViscoFlow ENABLES NEW WAYS OF CONSTRUCTION MICHAEL DANZINGER, CORPORATE TECHNOLOGY HEAD CONCRETE SIKA CAPITAL MARKETS DAY 2017

4 SALES DEVELOPMENT Sika ViscoFlow Sales in t 20% ESTIMATED ANNUAL AVERAGE GROWTH NEXT 3 YEARS FC % ANNUAL AVERAGE GROWTH 5

5 Sika ViscoFlow WORKABILITY EXTENDED FROM 2 TO 8 HOURS Long transportation of concrete due to traffic jams, long distances from ready-mix company to city center, big projects in remote areas Fast hardening speeds up building process Technology must be flexible following the changing customer requests and concrete recipes and must be combinable with customers cements Not only for self compacting concrete, but also normal slump concrete: for all concrete requirements in mature and emerging markets Robustness and softness: financial advantage for the customers as fluctuations in the concrete performance are minimized, significantly reduced numbers of rejected concrete batches 6

6 Dispersion Sika ViscoFlow STRUCTURE PERFORMANCE RELATION: HIGH PERFORMANCE MOLECULES CHEMISTRY MECHANISM Water Reducer Steric dispersion Slump Controller Slump Retainer Water 8 Time

7 KEY PROJECTS

8 KEY PROJECT EAST BRANCH DAM PROJECT, USA Project Description Dam Cutoff Wall up to 310 feet deep. For this project an extreme extended workability of the self compacting concrete was required without any extra addition of admixtures at the site. To demonstrate environmental responsibility, the cement was 50 % replaced with fly ash. As the concrete was going to be in contact with water, anti-wash out properties had to be passed as well Sika Solution After the adaptation of the concrete mix design Sika ViscoFlow was capable of fulfilling all required parameters 13 Sika Products Sika ViscoFlow 2020 Sika ViscoCrete 1000 Sikament 100 SC Sikatard 440 Sikacrete 950DP

9 FIBER REINFORCED FIRE-RESISTANT CONCRETE JÜRG SCHLUMPF, CORPORATE TARGET MARKET MANAGER CONCRETE SIKA CAPITAL MARKETS DAY 2017

10 HIGH PERFORMANCE WITH SikaFiber REINFORCED CONCRETE SikaFiber micro synthetic fibers Increase fire resistance of concrete after a fire attack by preventing collapse of structural behavior strong growing demand due to urbanization and new regulations SikaFiber Force macro synthetic fibers Replace costly laying of conventional steel reinforcement for many applications save time and increase concrete producers product value 15

11 FIRE PROTECTION WITH SikaFiber MICRO FIBERS VAPOR PRESSURE DESTROYS CONCRETE In the case of fire, a fast and sudden collapse of the concrete structure needs to be prevented Building insurances require fire tests on structural pre-cast concrete elements such as columns For large infrastructure projects such as tunnels, a passive fire protection for the outer concrete shell (inner lining or tunnel segments) is required 16

12 CONCRETE REINFORCEMENT WITH SikaFiber MACRO FIBERS IMPROVED TENSILE STRENGTH ONLY POSSIBLE WITH FIBERS Tensile strength can only be achieved with the help of fibers Huge amount of thin fibers added to the concrete during production, generating a finely divided structure No reinforcement preparation, transportation and installation on site Cost reduction for contractors due to time savings as reinforcement is already inside the ready-mixed concrete 18

13 GLOBAL ROLLOUT SikaFiber Force SikaFiber Force SUPPLY CHAIN 2013 Acquisition of Radmix, the leading supplier of structural fibers for the Australian mining industry 2016 Acquisition of FRC Industries in the USA FRC offers a full line of quality synthetic fibers 2017 In Germany, Sika opens the 1 st production line in Europe. The new fiber type SikaFiber Force-60 is ready for rollout 2018 New production line in Peru for synthetic fibers in preparation to cover demand in Latin America 20

14 MARKET POTENTIAL - SYNTHETIC SikaFiber Force SYNTHETIC FIBERS WITH THE STRONGEST GROWTH Global fiber market: > CHF 800 million all types of fibers included Technology of fibers: > 40% are synthetic fibers 21

15 KEY PROJECTS

16 KEY PROJECT METRO DOHA, QATAR Project Description Metro project containing 4 lines with an overall length of 300 km and 100 Stations Sika Solution Sika ViscoCrete and SikaFiber technology for fire resistant tunnel segments Sika Products Sika ViscoCrete TS-100 for tubbings SikaFiber for fire protection Aliva 403 dosing equipment SikaGard 65WN surface protection Sikaplan WT 2200/32HL for waterproofing 23

17 3-D CONCRETE PRINTING HUGE POTENTIAL FOR THE FUTURE DIDIER LOOTENS, HEAD OF MATERIAL PHYSICS SIKA CAPITAL MARKETS DAY 2017

18 ADDITIVE MANUFACTURING AND 3-D PRINTING MARKET POTENTIAL IN VARIOUS INDUSTRIES Construction and manufacturing costs increasing as projects become more complex and time consuming Market for complex geometries Implemented in various industries Growth of at least 50% per year SIKA S THREE FOCUS AREAS Construction: 3-D Concrete Printing Automotive: Baffle Carriers, Reinforcers Automotive: Mock-ups and prototypes 27

19 PARADIGM SHIFT IN CONSTRUCTION INDUSTRY WITH 3-D CONCRETE PRINTING AND INDUSTRIALIZATION OF ELEMENTS AND PROCESSES Industrialization and digitalization in construction industry is imminent: faster, more efficient, and more sustainable processes ahead Production of high quality elements with 3-D printing Combination of materials and functionalities Lower construction costs in general 28

20 LOW PRODUCTIVITY OF GLOBAL CONSTRUCTION SECTOR NEED FOR ALTERNATIVE CONSTRUCTION PROCESSES Constant productivity increase in manufacturing Low level of productivity in construction Extensive use of skilled and rare local labor Higher productivity can be achieved through industrialization and digitalization of construction processes Bundling of know-how from various fields: Chemistry Processes Management Material Science Automation 29

21 3-D MARKET POTENTIAL IN CONSTRUCTION ADDITIONAL CHF 1 BILLION BY 2025 Structural elements (walls / girders / slabs / pillars) Market Size >85% Non-structural parts (facades / railings / balconies) Market Size < 10 % Special design parts (figures / fountains / living area) Market Size < 5 % Material placement (of steel / cast-iron) Market Size < 1 % 30

22 3-D CONCRETE PRINTING IN REALITY A CONTINUOUS HIGH SPEED AND HIGH QUALITY PROCESS Video 31

23 SIKA AS LEADER OF INDUSTRIALIZATION OF 3-D CONCRETE PRINTING OUR KNOW-HOW AND UNIQUE POSITION Automation with Sika s pulsment process control Extrusion performed by the Sika MiniShot system 3-D mortars Setting on demand with Sika accelerators Concrete technology and mix design powered by Sika ViscoCrete Formulation expertise from Sika's specialist teams Sika fiber technology for stability Partnerships with leading universities and industry partners in place 32
