Fevicol Enters the World

One factory. One product. One dream. Pidilite started small and grew significantly. Our flagship product was a white synthetic resin known as Fevicol. It was launched to ease the lives of carpenters and woodworkers, as up until then these professionals relied on animal fat, which was cumbersome to use.
