Sitaram Saraf – Leading Shellac Exporter to Chile

In a world where industries are constantly searching for natural, sustainable, and versatile raw materials, shellac has secured its position as an essential commodity. From its use in pharmaceuticals and cosmetics to wood finishing, electronics, and food coatings, shellac continues to be a preferred choice worldwide.

For businesses in Chile, sourcing shellac is about more than just finding a supplier. It requires a partner who understands international trade, guarantees consistent quality, and ensures smooth logistics. That is where Sitaram Saraf, one of India’s oldest and most respected names in shellac, stands apart.

As a global shellac exporter with a heritage spanning decades, we combine the richness of Indian lac production with the demands of international trade. Our mission is simple: to be the most trusted shellac export partner for businesses in Chile and across the globe.

Our Heritage as Shellac Exporters

Generations of Expertise

The journey of Sitaram Saraf is not just about business—it is about legacy. For decades, our family-run enterprise has been at the heart of the lac resin trade in India, passing down knowledge and refining our expertise with each generation.

Unlike many companies that diversify into unrelated sectors, we have stayed true to shellac. This focus has made us specialists, not generalists. Buyers in Chile trust us because we have dedicated our lives to mastering shellac production and exports.

Rooted in India’s Shellac Capital

Located in Kolkata, India—a hub of lac cultivation and processing—we enjoy direct access to the finest raw sticklac from regions like Jharkhand, Bihar, and West Bengal. This geographical advantage allows us to control the supply chain from the farmer to the factory to the shipment.

For businesses in Chile, this means that every batch of shellac exported from Sitaram Saraf is traceable, authentic, and of superior quality.
