SIWAY 2026 Year in Review: 40+ Years of Expertise, Innovation and Global Growth

SIWAY 2026 Year in Review – sealant manufacturer, product innovation and global construction solutions

40+ Years of Expertise. Continuous Innovation. Global Connections.

As 2026 continues to unfold, Shanghai SIWAY looks back on a year shaped by product development, manufacturing expertise, international exhibitions, customer collaboration and a continued commitment to high-performance sealing and bonding solutions.

Established in 1984, SIWAY has spent more than four decades developing and manufacturing sealants and adhesives for construction, architectural, industrial and other specialized applications. From structural glazing and curtain walls to windows and doors, insulating glass, expansion joints, automotive applications and industrial bonding, our product portfolio continues to evolve alongside the needs of global customers.

For SIWAY, 2026 has been more than a year of business activities. It has been another step in a long-term journey: building reliable products, strengthening manufacturing capabilities and creating more value for customers around the world.

More Than 40 Years of Sealant Expertise

SIWAY's story began in 1984 with a clear focus on sealants and construction applications.

Over the past four decades, the industry has changed significantly. Building technologies have evolved, architectural designs have become more sophisticated, environmental requirements have become increasingly important, and customers now expect suppliers to provide more than standard products.

SIWAY has continued to develop alongside these changes.

Our experience covers a broad range of sealing and bonding technologies, including:

  • Silicone sealants
  • Polyurethane sealants
  • MS polymer adhesives and sealants
  • Polysulfide sealants
  • Epoxy anchoring systems
  • PU foams
  • Waterproofing materials
  • Specialized bonding solutions

This breadth allows SIWAY to approach sealing requirements from an application perspective rather than treating every project as a one-product solution.

From Products to Application Solutions

Whether the requirement involves a glass curtain wall, insulated glass unit, window and door system, construction joint, expansion joint, automotive application or industrial bonding project, material selection depends on the substrate, movement, environmental exposure, curing requirements and expected service life.

That is why SIWAY continues to develop application-oriented product solutions designed around real project requirements.

Expanding Our Product Portfolio

One of the defining characteristics of SIWAY's development has been the continuous expansion of its product portfolio.

In 2026, our focus remained on strengthening solutions across multiple application categories while improving product performance, packaging options and customization capabilities.

Silicone Sealants

SIWAY's silicone portfolio includes solutions for:

Products such as structural silicone sealants, insulating glass sealants and weatherproofing solutions support different requirements across modern building envelopes.

Polyurethane Solutions

Our polyurethane portfolio covers applications including:

  • Construction joints
  • Expansion joints
  • Automotive windshields
  • Waterproofing
  • Industrial bonding
  • Specialized construction applications

PU technology remains important where elasticity, adhesion, movement capability and application-specific performance are required.

MS Polymer Solutions

SIWAY also continues to expand its MS polymer solutions for applications such as:

  • Flooring
  • High-tack bonding
  • Construction adhesives
  • Interior applications
  • General-purpose bonding and sealing

The objective is not simply to increase the number of products, but to provide customers with more technology and application options within a single supply chain.

Engineering Solutions Beyond Standard Products

A modern sealant manufacturer needs to do more than produce cartridges.

Different projects can require different formulations, colors, packaging formats, curing characteristics, adhesion performance and application methods.

For this reason, customization remains an important part of SIWAY's business model.

SIWAY Customization Capabilities

Depending on project requirements, SIWAY can support:

  • ☑ OEM and private-label production
  • ☑ Customized formulations
  • ☑ Customized colors
  • ☑ Customized packaging
  • ☑ Sample-based product development
  • ☑ Application-specific solutions
  • ☑ Technical documentation
  • ☑ Product selection support
  • ☑ Project-oriented technical communication

This capability is particularly relevant for importers, distributors, construction-material companies and established brands looking for a manufacturing partner rather than a simple product reseller.

Engineering Starts With the Application

A structural glazing project, for example, requires a different performance profile from an expansion joint, an automotive windshield or an interior decoration application.

Understanding this distinction is central to SIWAY's product-development approach.

Our goal is to help customers select the appropriate chemistry and product architecture according to the actual application — rather than assuming that one sealant can solve every sealing problem.

Manufacturing Capability: From Raw Materials to Finished Products

Behind every sealant product is a manufacturing system.

For SIWAY, manufacturing capability is closely connected with product consistency, quality control, delivery reliability and long-term customer relationships.

Our manufacturing process is supported by quality-management procedures covering different stages of production, from incoming raw materials and formulation to filling, packaging and finished-product inspection.

Quality Is More Than a Certificate

Certifications and standards are important references, but consistent manufacturing performance also depends on process control and inspection.

SIWAY continues to focus on:

  • ✔ Raw-material control
  • ✔ Production-process management
  • ✔ Finished-product inspection
  • ✔ Packaging quality
  • ✔ Product traceability
  • ✔ Technical documentation
  • ✔ Customer-specific requirements

For international buyers, these details matter because product consistency is directly connected with installation performance, project quality and supply-chain reliability.

OEM, Private Label and Customized Supply

Global buyers increasingly need suppliers that can adapt to their own markets.

  • ● A distributor may require a specific cartridge design.
  • ● A construction-material company may need a private-label product.
  • ● An established brand may require a customized formulation or packaging specification.

SIWAY supports these requirements through its OEM and customized manufacturing capabilities.

From Product Concept to Finished Packaging

Depending on the project, cooperation can involve:

Product Requirement → Sample Development → Testing & Evaluation → Packaging Design → Production → Finished-Product Inspection → Delivery

This integrated approach allows customers to work with one manufacturing partner across multiple stages of the product-development and supply process.

For long-term B2B relationships, the value of a supplier is not determined only by the price of a single cartridge. Consistency, communication, technical support, customization and delivery reliability are equally important.

Connecting With Customers and the Global Industry

2026 has also been a year of direct communication with customers, distributors, contractors, engineers and industry professionals.

For SIWAY, exhibitions remain an important opportunity to understand what customers are actually looking for.

Face-to-face discussions often reveal requirements that cannot be fully understood through product specifications alone.

Customers may be looking for:

  • Better weather resistance
  • Higher movement capability
  • Faster curing
  • Improved adhesion
  • More application-specific solutions
  • Customized packaging
  • Stable long-term supply
  • OEM and private-label manufacturing
  • Technical support for specific projects

These conversations provide valuable feedback for product development and market expansion.

Meeting the Global Market at Major Industry Exhibitions

International exhibitions have been one of the most visible parts of SIWAY's 2026 activities.

Rather than simply displaying products, SIWAY uses exhibitions as opportunities to meet the market, understand regional requirements and build relationships with customers and partners.

Four Markets, One Global Direction

From Riyadh to Moscow, Algiers back to shanghai, SIWAY's 2026 exhibition activities reflect a broader strategy:

Stay close to the market, understand regional requirements and build long-term customer relationships.

Different regions have different climates, construction practices, standards and purchasing requirements.

A global sealant manufacturer therefore needs both standardized manufacturing capabilities and the flexibility to respond to local application needs.

What We Learned From the Market in 2026

The construction and sealant industries continue to evolve.

Based on customer conversations, exhibition discussions and developments across the industry, several themes have become increasingly important.

Performance Matters More Than Product Names

Customers are increasingly focused on actual application performance rather than simply choosing a generic category such as "silicone" or "PU."

Questions increasingly center on:

  • ✓ Where will the product be used?
  • ✓ What substrates are involved?
  • ✓ How much movement is expected?
  • ✓ What environmental conditions will it face?
  • ✓ What curing system is appropriate?
  • ✓ What service life is required?

This reinforces the importance of application-based product selection.

Customization Is Becoming More Important

Different markets have different packaging, color, performance and compliance requirements.

OEM and private-label manufacturing therefore remain important parts of international B2B sourcing.

Supply Reliability Is Part of Product Value

For large projects and long-term distribution, a high-performance product is only one part of the equation.

Customers also need:

Consistent quality + stable production + reliable delivery + technical support + responsive communication.

This is why SIWAY continues to view manufacturing and service capabilities as an integral part of product value.

Sustainability Is Becoming Part of Material Selection

Environmental considerations are increasingly incorporated into construction-material decisions.

This includes product formulation, emissions, durability, material efficiency and the overall performance of building systems.

For sealants, longer service life and appropriate material selection can also contribute to the durability and performance of building envelopes.

Quality, Responsibility and Long-Term Partnership

The past year has reinforced something that has been central to SIWAY since 1984:

The sealant industry is ultimately about more than sealing.

  • ✓ It is about protecting buildings.
  • ✓ It is about connecting materials.
  • ✓ It is about supporting construction systems.
  • ✓ It is about helping customers solve application problems.
  • ✓ And it is about building long-term trust between manufacturers and partners.

Looking ahead, SIWAY will continue to focus on product development, manufacturing consistency, customized solutions, quality management and international market development.

We will continue to expand our product capabilities while staying focused on the applications where our customers need reliable sealing and bonding performance.

• More Applications.

• More Customized Solutions.

• More Reliable Supply.

• More Global Connections.

One Continued Commitment to Better Sealing and Bonding.
