Bone has been a cornerstone material in traditional and contemporary handicrafts for centuries. Known for its natural strength, smooth texture, and unique patterns, bone is widely used to craft luxury décor, jewelry, cutlery handles, and furniture inlays. In India, particularly Sambhal (Uttar Pradesh), bone craftsmanship has evolved into a highly specialized export industry — and HornImpex stands at the forefront as one of the leading Indian bone raw material exporters serving global markets.

This sustainable sourcing model supports India’s rural economies while contributing to eco-friendly trade practices.
