Kamdhenu Paints has expanded its manufacturing portfolio with the commencement of indigenous production of premium wood coatings under its newly introduced  KAMOLAC  brand. The company has commissioned a dedicated manufacturing line at its production facility in the RIICO Industrial Area, Chopanki (Bhiwadi), Rajasthan, with an investment of approximately ₹20 crore.

The initiative marks a strategic step toward strengthening its presence in high-value coating solutions while broadening its decorative paints portfolio. The new production line has been established to cater to the rising demand for premium wood finishes across residential, commercial and institutional projects.

By manufacturing the products locally, Kamdhenu Paints expects to improve product availability, reduce lead times and enhance service delivery for architects, interior designers, furniture manufacturers and woodworking professionals across the country. India’s wood coatings market has been witnessing sustained growth, supported by rapid urbanisation, increasing disposable incomes and rising demand for premium furniture and modern interior solutions.

The company believes this evolving market presents a significant opportunity to strengthen its footprint in specialised coatings while creating an additional revenue stream. Kamdhenu Paints has set an ambitious target of generating nearly ₹100 crore in revenue from wood coatings and other newly introduced product categories by FY2029.

 The newly established Wood Coating Division has introduced a comprehensive portfolio comprising polyurethane (PU) wood finishes, high-gloss coatings and complementary protective solutions engineered to enhance the appearance, durability and longevity of wooden surfaces. Developed to suit Indian climatic and application conditions, the products also meet global performance expectations, making them suitable for premium residential and commercial projects. Commenting on the expansion,

Saurabh Agarwal, Managing Director, Kamdhenu Colour and Coatings Limited, said the investment reflects the company’s long-term strategy of offering technologically advanced products across premium segments while maintaining competitive pricing. He added that the company is focused on addressing the growing demand for high-performance coatings in the furniture and interior décor industry and expects the new business vertical to contribute meaningfully to overall revenue growth over the coming years.

 The latest investment builds on Kamdhenu Paints’ broader strategy of strengthening its position in value-added coatings through continuous product innovation and customer engagement. The company regularly collaborates with architects, designers and channel partners to encourage wider adoption of specialised coating solutions across residential, hospitality, retail and commercial infrastructure projects.

Established in 2008, Kamdhenu Paints has grown into one of India’s prominent decorative paint manufacturers through its extensive portfolio of emulsions, enamels, primers, textures, designer finishes and industrial coatings. Backed by more than 4,400 dealers and 31 sales depots nationwide, the company continues to expand its manufacturing capabilities and product offerings to meet evolving customer requirements while reinforcing its presence across India’s rapidly growing paints and coatings market.
