Manufacturing and Exporting

We are pioneer in Shellac Manufacturing in the state of Maharashtra. With years of experience in this industry we have now constructed our highly advance facility aid with latest technologically geared machinery to delivery the best in class Shellac.

HANDMADE SHELLAC

Seedlac, is filled Into a long, narrow cloth bag. One end of the bag is held in front of the charcoal oven while the other end is attached to a windlass Is gradually turned. The molten lac is scraped out and mixed thoroughly to easure uniformity and transferred to a block of molten lac on the surace of a smooth porcelain cylinder filled with hot water.

Standing In front of fire, the workman so manipulates the sheet as to heat it uniformly and then scratches It with his hands, legs and mouth. It Is pulled in all directions to produce a sheet of Shellac.

Sticklac Is first crushed and sieved to remove certain Impurities. It Is then washed in large vats or barrels to remove Insect bodies and a portion of the colouring matter. Washing is repeated until the dye and most of the impurities are removed. The Sticklas thus cleaned is spread on large clean open air floor to dry. After drying it Is winnowed and sieved to get the commercial varlety of Seedlas. It contains around 3-5% Impurity.

Seedlas, as mostly used for conversion into Bleached Lac and different types of Shellac.
