Sheenlac Paints

PAINTING LIVES

Fighting an uphill battle to create a revolution in the history of paints and polishes, Sheenlac Paints entered the market and made its name in the industry. The company follows the rich tradition of painting Indian homes with radiant and vibrant colors.

The brand manufactures and trades paints, coatings and finishes for the automotive, wood and decorative categories.

Today, it proudly affirms its global presence notably in India, the Middle East, Mauritius, Sri Lanka and Vietnam. Sheenlac wears the crown for being the largest paint company in South India.

The journey of this successful company began in 1962 when Mr. John Peter began manufacturing thinner and wood polish products under the brand name “Sheenlac”. The Company’s name itself is quite interesting and was given by his business friend Mr. Krishnamoorthy. The name was the result of combination of “Sheen” that means Future of Shine and “Lac” meaning Lacquer polish. The company had a breakthrough when it launched thinners in pet bottles which were the first ones in the Indian market in the year 1983.

Sheenlac boasts of a wide portfolio of quality products.They now offer a wide array of products including decorative paints, industrial coatings, wood polishes, auto finishes, thinners, emulsions, distempers, enamals, sealers, wall putty, primers and the list goes on and on.

GROWING WITH AN EDIFIED LEADER

For the marketing of their decorative paints, Sheenlac entered another crucial partnership in which they collaborated with India’s oldest paint company Jenson and Nicholson (l) Ltd.

With all these effective strategic and great management techniques, Sheenlac Paints is on an upswing and trying to paint a big picture filled with glory for its time ahead.

Fevicol

The single-handed dominance of the white glue market in India which Fevicol has been enjoying for more than five decades is a testimony to the brand’s inherent strength and quality. With genius advertising and marketing campaigns, the brand has become synonymous with the word ‘adhesive’ for everyone, creating an unfathomable territory for itself in the market

A brand that has seamlessly merged with the day-to-day activities of every household in the country, Fevicol along with its extensions such as Feviquik, Fevistick, Fevitite, etc. is being used extensively in schools, offices, and do-it-yourself segments. From the school-going kid who uses the Fevicol adhesive for his arts and crafts lessons to the neighborhood carpenter who considers Fevicol his best friend, the brand has come to forge an inseparable bond with people who influence the product – consultants, builders, architects, and carpenters. The brand has become a part of every Indian’s vocabulary as a metaphor for strong bonding or stubborn stickiness and appears not only in mundane conversations or topical jokes, but Bollywood movies as well. The brand has grown immensely in virtue because of the promising products it offers. Today, it not only has its firm hold in its home market, but it is the largest selling adhesive brand in Asia, with a presence in over 50 countries.

BONDING WITH EASE

Fevicol was launched in the year 1959, as the Parekh Group floated Pidilite Industries to develop a substitute for the collagen and fat-based adhesives which the carpenters used on a very large scale. The glues were sold unbranded and with the introduction of a new option the Group planned to capitalize on the potential market for synthetic resin adhesives, or “white glue” in India. And thus, Fevicol was born.

For the first 5–7 years the challenge before Pidilite was to make Fevicol the most preferred glue for making furniture. As the trade was used to glues based on natural products, selling synthetic glue was a difficult proposition, which required patient working with the end users. Initially, the new product faced problems in replacing the traditional options available, as the people were used to glues made out of natural products. Selling a synthetic adhesive was a difficult proposition and the company had to work a lot to impress the end users. The company acquired a different and viable marketing strategy to woo the customers and instead of selling through stores, Fevicol started to approach carpenters directly. This proved out to be one of the most successful strategies employed by the company and helped the brand gain a strong foothold in the white glue market.

THE CREATIVE STRATEGIST

An efficient and interactive marketing and advertising spree has been one of the most crucial supporters of the brands’ call to success. The company leaders remain a firm believer in the power of advertising and innovative packaging, and spend liberally on ad campaigns. This philosophy of the company has stood by over the years to continue its dominance over the market. The ads aim to capture the interests of wide audience and leave an imprint on their minds, so the next time when they go to purchase an adhesive they only ask for Fevicol.

The interesting campaigns are planned with an innovative approach to own ‘bonding’ through a mix of communication strategies that are filled with a touch of humor and come peppered with typical Indian flavors in catch phrases like “Dum laga kar haisa, zor laga kar haisya” and “Pakade rehna, chhodana nahi”. Some of its award winning TV advertisements include showcasing an egg that won’t crack because the hen that laid it fed from a Fevicol tube (1988), to more Indian-specific ones like a creaky bus carrying an unimaginable number of passengers glued together because of a Fevicol signage ad (2001).
