Cambolac, a Cambodian Social Business, is a Siem Reap based handicraft company designing and manufacturing lacquer ware souvenirs. Cambolac employs vulnerable poor populations from Angkor’s Park and hearing impaired young adults to manufacture and sell Cambolac original designs and genuine picture in lacquer and hand paint souvenirs.

Our mission is to help alleviate poverty in Cambodia. Through work inclusion, we aim to give vulnerable communities the means to benefit from tourism.    

Siem Reap, the place for Angkor, enjoys a booming tourist industry, yet it remains amongst the poorest provinces in Cambodia. The difference in poor local population and rich visitors has grown more shocking over the years. Today more than 80% of local souvenirs sold in Siem Reap are still imported. 

Cambolac jobs creation focuses on young adults from the Angkor’s Park poor communities and Cambodian hearing impaired. In buying our unique proprietary designs, while you do good for yourself, you do good for the local people in helping us fulfill our mission: create jobs for them.

30-day handmade process

Cambolac’s proprietary lacquer technology allows us to create unique souvenirs with Picture In Lacquer, showing amazing Angkor temples and beautiful Cambodian nature. We offer a choice of more than a hundred different hand-made souvenirs and home decoration products ranging from boxes, candles-holders to candles, trays, and plates in different sizes.

Cambodian lacquer

Cambolac’s products are handmade in our Siem Reap workshop along a thirty-day manufacturing process. Starting with a wooden form, with great care, one by one, up to ten layers of poly-cashew oil lacquer are hand brushed and sprayed. Each new layer is finely sand papered before we apply the next one.
