What Sika USA does

Sika USA, Inc. is the North American sales subsidiary of SIKA Dr. Siebert & Kühn GmbH & Co. KG, a fourth-generation family-owned German measurement and calibration technology company founded in 1901. Operating from Mount Pleasant, Wisconsin since its 2004 establishment, the US entity distributes a portfolio of industrial temperature, pressure, and flow instruments — including the patented V-shaped industrial thermometer (1939), TP Premium and TP Basic temperature calibrators, B2 digital pressure gauges, VVX-series vortex flow sensors, magnetic-inductive flow meters, and the new E04 multi-sensor — to enterprise and SMB customers across industrial manufacturing, marine, data center cooling, heat pumps/HVAC, food and beverage, rail/transit, and precision agriculture.

The product platform rests on physical-measurement principles augmented by industrial communication protocols (1-Wire, IO-Link, LIN-Bus, CANopen) and is supported by a DKD/DAkkS-accredited calibration laboratory. Patented differentiators include 4-20 mA temperature transducers, vortex pre-swirlers enabling measurement down to 2 l/min, a multi-function dryblock/bath/IR/surface calibrator, and digital calibration data on the TP Premium line. Products are built to relevant DIN, EN, DNV, WRAS, and Kiwa standards, making the offering audit-compliant for IFS, HACCP, ISO 9000, GMP, and FDA regimes.

Sika USA generates revenue through a mix of direct sales ([email protected], +1 262-886-2695) and online-industrial distributors (Amazon, DigiKey, Zoro, TestEquity, TEquipment). Pricing is quote-based and not publicly disclosed; the group as a whole reports approximately €65M turnover (FY2022) across 11 subsidiaries and 138 sales partners serving 67% export markets, with three production sites in Germany and roughly 380 employees worldwide. The US subsidiary itself is small (firmographic headcount 1-10) and functions as a regional commercial arm of the parent entity.

Core offering

SIKA manufactures and sells industrial measurement and calibration instruments organized around three core measurement domains: temperature, pressure, and flow. The product portfolio includes mechanical and digital industrial thermometers, dry block and multi-function temperature calibrators (TP Premium and TP Basic Marine series), precision digital pressure gauges and deadweight testers, and a broad flow measurement line covering vortex, magnetic inductive, turbine, oval gear, positive displacement, calorimetric, and flow regulator technologies. Products are complemented by DKD-accredited calibration services and supported by global subsidiaries, 138 sales partners, and online distributors.

Product overview

SIKA (Dr. Siebert & Kühn GmbH & Co. KG) is a German family-owned measurement and calibration technology company founded in 1901, with its US subsidiary SIKA USA based in Mount Pleasant, Wisconsin. The company offers a broad portfolio of high-quality industrial measuring and calibration instruments organized around three core measurement domains: Temperature, Pressure, and Flow. The product line is anchored by precision temperature calibrators (the TP Premium series including TP37200E.2, TP3M165E.2, TP37165E.2 multi-function/dryblock models, and the TP Basic Marine for marine applications), complemented by pressure instruments (B2 digital pressure gauges, P1000.2 hand test pumps, oil deadweight testers), and flow measurement devices (vortex flow sensors VVX series, turbine flow sensors TURBOTRON/VTY, magnetic inductive flow sensors VMZ.2, oval gear flow meters, flow switches, and mechanical flow regulators). Supporting the core instruments are digital multi-sensors (E04 for temperature/humidity/CO₂ with CANopen), 1-Wire Bus temperature sensors (WGF, WBA, WHS types) for rail and HVAC applications, industrial and dial thermometers, room condition monitoring systems (RCM 880/890), and KombiTemp combined instruments. The portfolio also includes calibration services via DKD-accredited laboratories, downloadable software firmware for temperature calibrators, and a global network of sales subsidiaries and distributors.
