**History of Boroline**
The name Boroline derives from its ingredients: “Boro” from boric acid, known for its antiseptic properties, and “line” as a variant of the Latin word “oleum,” meaning oil.
The cream, combined with essential oils, boric acid powder, the astringent, and sunscreen properties of zinc oxide, is designed for treating and healing cuts, chapped lips, rough skin, and infections. It is produced by G.D. Pharmaceuticals Private Limited, which was established and began manufacturing Boroline in 1929. The logo, an elephant, symbolizes resilience and strength. Moreover, for many, the elephant holds an auspicious meaning. Considering these values, the elephant was chosen as the Boroline logo, hoping it would bring good luck and signify success. The logo has become well-recognized.
In the villages and rural areas of India, Boroline is still known as hathiwala, the “elephant cream” (the cream with the elephant logo). The brand was launched in 1929 in Calcutta by Gourmohan Dutta, a Bengali merchant. Over the years, it has won the affection of the people, and the brand’s popularity soared, becoming a symbol of national economic self-sufficiency in the country. It remains one of the most popular products in India.
The value of Boroline is that it is India’s beloved antiseptic cream. Boroline works wonders and has earned the trust of generations of consumers. For three generations of Indian consumers, the product has become a caring and reliable family member when needed. Boroline cream addresses many skin problems, primarily dryness.
