Lac is a natural, biodegradable, non-toxic, odourless, tasteless, hard resin.
Lac is the only resin from animal origin
Lac is a resinous exudation from the body of female scale insect.
Lac insect is a minute crawling scale insect that inserts its suctorial proboscis into plant
tissue, sucks juices, grows and secretes resinous lac from the body.
Its body ultimately gets covered with lac in the so-called ‘CELL’.
Lac is secreted by insects for protection from predators.
