Shellac is a natural resin secreted by the female lac bug (Kerria lacca. It is a versatile material known for its various industrial applications, especially in the fields of coatings, cosmetics, pharmaceuticals, and food industries. Shellac is produced through a meticulous process involving the collection of resin secretions from the lac bug, which are then refined and processed into various forms, such as flakes or powder. It exhibits unique properties, including excellent adhesion, gloss, and durability when used as a coating or finish. Shellac is widely utilized across the cosmetics industry as a key ingredient in nail polishes, providing a long-lasting and glossy finish. Besides this, it is also employed in the food industry as a food glaze and a natural food-grade coating, offering a protective and attractive finish for confectionery products and fruits.
