Indian manufacturer of moulded plastic furniture, storage products, logistics equipment and custom plastic components.
Last updated August 22, 2026
Overview
Nilkamal Plastics is the consumer and industrial plastics business associated with Nilkamal Limited, an Indian manufacturer headquartered in Mumbai. The company traces its corporate origin to 5 December 1985, when it was incorporated as Creamer Plastic. It adopted the name Nilkamal Plastic in 1990 and later changed its corporate name to Nilkamal Limited in 2004. The Nilkamal name is chiefly associated with moulded plastic products sold to households, businesses and industrial customers. Its portfolio includes moulded plastic furniture, household storage products, crates, containers, pallets and other material-handling equipment. The business also undertakes custom plastic moulding, allowing products to be made for specific commercial and industrial applications. This combination of consumer products and business-to-business manufacturing gives Nilkamal a broader scope than a household furniture label alone. Nilkamal has developed a manufacturing footprint across several Indian locations, including facilities identified in company and reference material at Samba, Greater Noida, Pondicherry, Barjora, Sinnar, Nashik and Silvassa. It has also participated in manufacturing ventures in Bangladesh and Sri Lanka through Nilkamal Padma Plastics and Nilkamal Eswaran Plastics. In 2011, the company entered mattress production, with manufacturing units reported at Hosur and Dankuni. The brand’s retail presence has included the @home chain, a Nilkamal-owned furniture retail format. @home stores have offered furniture and home-related products directly to consumers, complementing Nilkamal’s established manufacturing and distribution activities. The company has also maintained an international business through exports and overseas manufacturing relationships, although the available reference material does not provide a current market-by-market sales breakdown. Nilkamal is positioned around scale manufacturing, practical design and broad availability across household, retail, logistics and industrial applications. Its principal competitive identity is built on moulded plastic expertise rather than on a single product category. The company’s public profile also includes sports sponsorship activity, including a reported co-sponsorship arrangement with Mohun Bagan Athletic Club for the 2018 season period.
History
Nilkamal’s corporate history begins on 5 December 1985, when the company was incorporated under the name Creamer Plastic. The business later adopted the Nilkamal Plastic name on 23 August 1990, aligning its corporate identity with the brand that became associated with moulded plastic products in India. In 2004, the company changed its name to Nilkamal Limited. The company developed around the processing of moulded plastics for both consumer and commercial use. Its product range came to include furniture, storage products, crates, containers, pallets and custom moulded components. This diversified model enabled Nilkamal to serve households while also supplying logistics, warehousing, retail and industrial customers. Manufacturing expansion created a network of Indian facilities. Reference material identifies plants or manufacturing operations in Samba, Greater Noida, Pondicherry, Barjora, Sinnar, Nashik and Silvassa. The company also established joint manufacturing ventures outside India, including Nilkamal Padma Plastics in Bangladesh and Nilkamal Eswaran Plastics in Sri Lanka. These ventures extended the company’s manufacturing reach beyond its domestic base. In 2011, Nilkamal entered mattress manufacturing, adding a product category beyond rigid moulded plastics. Production units for this business were reported in Hosur and Dankuni. The move reflected an effort to broaden the company’s home-products offering and use its existing consumer distribution capabilities. Nilkamal also expanded toward direct retail through @home, a chain of stores owned by Nilkamal Limited. The format operated in Indian cities and presented furniture and home products to consumers through branded retail locations. The available reference material reports 20 @home stores in 14 Indian cities, although the current size of the network is not established here. By the 2010s, Nilkamal was described in reference material as a major manufacturer of moulded furniture and one of Asia’s significant processors of moulded plastic products. Its activities combined branded consumer goods, industrial and logistics products, custom moulding, overseas manufacturing relationships and furniture retail. The company also used sponsorship as a brand-building channel, including its reported co-sponsorship of Mohun Bagan Athletic Club for the 2018 season period. Current operating details, leadership information and recent financial performance are not established by the supplied sources.
