For more than five decades, business partners and employees have placed their trust in Sikla's safety standards. But what does safety really mean, and how does the siMetrix user guideline reinforce this trust?
Safety is a fundamental human need that goes far beyond physical integrity. It influences our social well-being and psychological stability. In technical building equipment and the process industry, safety is not only a technical aspect, but also a decisive factor in building trust for all involved.
Sikla: Over 50 years of commitment to safety
For over 50 years, Sikla has stood for the highest safety standards and reliability. Our business partners value our consistent focus on quality and safety. This long-standing trust is based on our continuous innovation and our commitment to always delivering the best solutions for our customers. Our employees are proud to be part of a company that not only promises safety, but lives it every day.
The siMetrix static guideline: A benchmark for trust
To further consolidate this high level of safety, we have developed the siMetrix static guideline. It contains various standard designs, known as typicals, which can be used for recurring construction tasks. This standardisation enables rapid construction progress and builds trust through proven and tested solutions.
Technical precision for maximum safety
The static guideline provides clear information on the permissible load capacity of typical structures in technical building equipment and the process industry. The design is based on the limit states of load-bearing capacity and serviceability. By incorporating partial safety factors, we create an additional level of safety that exceeds the minimum requirements.
The trust of our business partners
Our business partners have rated Sikla as a reliable and secure partner for decades. Our uncompromising stance on safety has enabled us to build long-term partnerships. They know they can rely on our products and services—a trust based on over 50 years of experience and excellence.
Commitment and satisfaction of our employees
Our employees are the key to our success. They appreciate the high safety standards and secure working environment that Sikla offers. This trust not only promotes satisfaction, but also the motivation and commitment of each individual team member. Regular training and further education ensure that our team is always up to date with the latest technology and can offer the best possible solutions.
Reusability: efficiency and sustainability combined
One outstanding feature of the user guideline is the regulation on the reusability of components. As long as the specified permissible loads are not exceeded, components can be reused without any problems. For assembly specialists, this means flexibility and efficiency — a major advantage when designs need to be adapted quickly.
Various connection types for individual requirements
The guideline describes various types of connection to the building structure, whether with anchors in concrete or clamps on steel beams. This variety enables us to respond to different structural conditions and always choose the safest and most efficient solution.
Safety in a social and psychological context
Security builds trust—between companies and customers, employers and employees, and within teams. When employees know they are working with secure and reliable systems, it not only increases productivity, but also satisfaction and overall well-being. Psychologically, security reduces stress and promotes a positive working environment.
Security is more than just a technical parameter; it is the foundation for trust and psychological well-being. With over 50 years of experience and the siMetrix user guideline, we set standards that combine technical excellence with human needs.
