About Pidilite
Since its inception in 1959, Pidilite Industries Limited has been a pioneer in consumer and specialities
chemicals in India.
From adhesives, sealants, waterproofing solutions and construction chemicals to arts & crafts, industrial
resins, polymers and more, our product portfolio is as diverse as it is ever evolving. With a robust and
growing network, our products are accessible across demographics and geographies.
Today, we are the market leader in adhesives and our brands have become trusted household and
industrial names across the country and beyond.
Fevikwik as a product is a simple, convenient, cheap solution that fixes broken objects instantly. Despite
being an emergency usage category, Fevikwik’s penetration is very high, making it a household name.
Reaching to over 3.6 million outlets, it also is one of the most widely available products.
93% of the business for Fevikwik comes from the INR 5 pack. This price point and pack size have been
single-handedly responsible for making the brand available across the length and breadth of the country.
The challenge, hence, for this highly penetrated but price locked brand is now to expand the portfolio and
premiumize consumers to an improved repair experience at slightly higher price point.
Consumer Speak
Unlike eating chocolates, fixing broken objects is not the most exciting thing in anyone’s life. People only fix
something when it is urgent or when work stops.
Further, while the major discomfort with the current product is the adhesive sticking to fingers, that in fact is
the property of the cyanoacrylate chemistry and hence cannot be done away with.
Although, the other concerns that consumers face are – confidence to repair, multiple use cases, not having
the instant adhesive at home when needed, article not needing an immediate fix and so on.
We want to understand, what would a new and improved Fevikwik look like, that would convert users and
non-users of the category to switch to a higher value variant
