- Sika will distribute IndustryOS sensor technologies to tunneling and mining customers worldwide.

Sika has signed a partnership agreement with Australian IoT developer IndustryOS to expand its digital offering for tunneling and mining customers. The announcement was released on Wednesday, November 4, 2026, at 7:00 a.m. CET by Globenewswire.
Sensor technology targets underground operations
Under the agreement, Sika will act as the global channel partner for IndustryOS's Safecrete and Safewall technologies. Safecrete Qube uses embedded sensors to monitor the curing process and strength development of sprayed concrete in real time.
Safewall tracks strength development in mining paste barricades and indicates when they have reached the required load-bearing capacity. The applications are designed to support re-entry decisions and the resumption of filling operations based on measured performance rather than fixed waiting periods.
Digital strategy gains another building block
Sika said the partnership supports its Fast Forward program and extends its digital product offering into underground construction and mining. Management linked the agreement to the company's broader effort to expand digital capabilities across the concrete value chain, following a recent partnership with Giatec.
The IndustryOS agreement gives Sika another channel to combine its expertise in concrete admixtures and sprayed concrete with sensor-based monitoring. For investors, the commercial significance will depend on customer adoption and the extent to which the solutions improve project efficiency and safety.
