R&D AND CAPABILITIES

Developed, synthesised and tested in house.

Every NISH Silicone is developed by our R&D team, manufactured at our ISO 9001:2015 facility, and quality-tested before shipment. We work with formulators across the world to develop custom silicone solutions for specific applications.

What We Offer

Research and Development

NISHKA's R&D team has over 20 years of silicone chemistry expertise. Our chemists develop, test, and refine every product in the portfolio — and extend that expertise to custom silicone development for brand partners.

R&D capabilities

Custom Formulation

Standard products serve most formulation needs. When they don't, our R&D team works directly with your bench chemists to develop a silicone tailored to your specific brief — from performance target through pilot batch to production.

Custom formulation process

Manufacturing

An ISO 9001:2015 certified facility in Vapi (Gujarat), producing silicone fluids, sensory blends, elastomers, surfactants, and speciality blends. Documented batch manufacturing with full QA release on every order.

Our facility

Quality Assurance

ISO 9001:2015 quality management covers incoming raw material testing, in-process controls, final batch release, and Certificate of Analysis for every shipment. Retain samples held for 24 months.

Quality system

Lab Support

Before you place a production order, our R&D team can test Nishka silicones in your actual formulation matrix. Written report on sensory profile, stability, and compatibility — at no charge for qualified development projects.

What We Don't Do

We're deliberately narrow. Nishka is a cosmetic silicone manufacturer. Not industrial rubber. Not medical-grade. Not construction sealants. We'd rather route you to the right partner than waste both our time.

Honest scope

RESEARCH AND DEVELOPMENT

Chemistry that begins with the brief.

NISHKA's R&D team combines silicone polymer chemistry expertise with deep knowledge of personal care formulation. Every product in our speciality silicone portfolio was developed and validated by this team before commercialisation — and the same expertise is available for custom development projects.

Our chemists work directly with formulators: trialling products in actual formulation matrices, recommending use levels, troubleshooting compatibility, and validating sensory performance. Technical engagement starts from the first sample enquiry.

CUSTOM FORMULATION

When standard products aren't enough.

Standard products serve most formulation needs. When they don't — our R&D team takes the brief.

01

Brief

Specify desired sensory properties, viscosity range, chemical compatibility, regulatory constraints, and target application.

02

Lab development

Nishka R&D develops a sample formulation to specification. Multiple iterations reviewed with your bench chemist as needed.

03

Pilot batch

Small-scale production validates the formulation at manufacturing scale. Process parameters are locked and documented.

04

Production scaling

Full manufacturing run to your specification. TDS and CoA issued for every production batch.
