Industry Overview & Commercial Opportunity
Camphor (Kapoor) is an essential sacred aromatic compound utilized daily in Hindu prayer rituals, aarti ceremonies, hawans, and religious pujas across millions of Indian households and temples. Additionally, camphor is widely used in pharmaceutical pain-relief balms, aromatherapy, and moth repellents. Processing raw camphor powder into uniform, high-density tablets represents a compact, clean, high-margin business.
Camphor tablets are lightweight, non-perishable, and sell rapidly in pre-packed ₹5 and ₹10 zip pouches or plastic jar containers in every pooja samagri shop, supermarket, and temple corridor.
