SIKA EXPANDS COOPERATION WITH US-BASED CIDRA CONCRETE SYSTEMS Freitag, 18. Dezember 2020 - 07:09
Sika is expanding its cooperation with CiDRA Concrete Systems Inc., headquartered in Eden Prairie, Minnesota, and has completed a growth equity investment agreement to supplement its existing global relationship. CiDRA specializes in IoT-based digital systems to monitor concrete properties during transport. Sika and CiDRA already offer this service to customers in the US and Canada – now concrete producers in other countries will follow.
CiDRA Concrete Systems is a market leader in digital monitoring and information systems for concrete loads in trucks. High-precision on-board systems measure the quality of the concrete during its transport from the batching plants to the job sites. Currently customers in the US and Canada benefit from this offering through a data subscription service, enabling concrete producers to access real-time concrete quality data such as workability and air content through a cloud-based data portal for every truck operating in their fleet.
Sika and CiDRA forged a partnership around the launch of this data service in early 2019. The partnership will now be expanded to other countries so that concrete producers outside of the US and Canada will also have access to this service.
