AICA Laminate Price 2026: Sunmica 1 mm Sheet Rates

Last updated: 3 November 2026. Prices checked against dealer listings and trade-press interviews, company details against trade articles and AICA group pages, and the standard against BIS records. An official AICA India website could not be identified.

AICA laminate price in India: quick answer (November 2026)

AICA Laminates India does not publish a sheet price list that could be found. The only AICA-named dealer listing seen in November 2026 was a 1 mm AICA Sunmica 8x4 ft sheet at ₹1,400 per sheet, about ₹44 per sq ft (Bengaluru, GST not stated). A March 2023 trade interview quotes AICA's chief operating officer at about ₹1,100 per sheet. Branded 1 mm sheets generally list at ₹1,100-1,850, and the one listing falls inside that band.

What is AICA Sunmica, and is sunmica a brand or a material?

Sunmica is a brand name that Indian buyers, carpenters and dealers use generically for any decorative laminate sheet, and AICA Laminates India sells its own laminates under that name. The general price picture for every brand is in Sunmica price in India: 8x4 laminate sheet rates by finish and brand; this page covers only what is known about AICA.

That matters when you search or order. A dealer who says "sunmica" may mean any brand, so write "AICA" and the design code on your quote if AICA is what you want. IndiaMART listings show the confusion: a seller can have "Sunmica" in the material field of a listing for another brand, and in November 2026 one such listing priced a 1 mm sheet at ₹1,990 without naming AICA.

AICA Sunmica price: what dealer listings and interviews show

AICA-named prices are thin, so treat the figures below as a starting point for your own quotes, not a rate card. Five IndiaMART seller pages were read on 3 November 2026, and only one listing named AICA in its brand field.

Sheet	Price per 8x4 sheet	Per sq ft (32 sq ft)	What it includes	Source type and month
AICA Sunmica 1 mm, 8x4 ft	₹1,400 (one listing)	₹44	GST, cutting and delivery not stated; seller in Bengaluru	IndiaMART seller listing, Nov 2026
AICA laminate, thickness not stated	About ₹1,100	About ₹34	Statement by AICA's chief operating officer; not a current dealer price	Trade-press interview, March 2023
AICA Sunmica 0.8 mm	Not published	-	No AICA-named listing found	-
AICA liner or inner sheet	Not published	-	No AICA-named listing found	-

For context, the November 2026 dealer listings that PlyPrice uses for its sunmica guide show these bands for branded 8x4 sheets from other makers. They are not AICA prices.

Branded 8x4 sheet (market band)	Thickness	Price per sheet	Per sq ft	Source (month seen)
Liner (inner)	0.7-0.92 mm	₹300-700	₹9-22	IndiaMART, ibo.com (Nov 2026)
Decorative, most listings	0.8 mm	₹620-1,000	₹19-31	IndiaMART (Nov 2026)
Suede or matte	1 mm	₹1,100-1,700	₹34-53	IndiaMART (Nov 2026)
Gloss or high gloss	1 mm	₹1,400-1,850	₹44-58	IndiaMART (Nov 2026)
Premium textured or designer	1 mm	₹2,100-3,300	₹66-103	IndiaMART, ibo.com with GST (Nov 2026)

The ₹1,400 AICA listing sits in the middle of the suede and gloss bands, and the ₹1,100 figure from 2023 sits at the bottom of the matte band. Neither tells you the price of a particular AICA design in your city, so ask for a written, GST-inclusive, delivered quote.

Sunmica laminate price 1 mm vs 0.8 mm: which AICA thickness to pay for

Pay for 1 mm on surfaces that take daily wear, such as kitchen shutters and tabletops, and use 0.8 mm where wear is light. In the March 2023 interview AICA's chief operating officer said the company supplies 1 mm and 0.8 mm laminates at their full stated thickness and does not supply 0.92 mm sheets as substitutes, so ask your dealer to confirm the thickness on the invoice.

Thickness	Typical use at home	What a brand guide says	Market band, 8x4 sheet (Nov 2026)
0.8 mm	Wardrobe shutters, study units, TV backs	CenturyLaminates (another maker) recommends 0.8 mm for tables and desks	₹620-1,000 (most listings)
1 mm	Kitchen shutters, dining tables, textured finishes	CenturyLaminates recommends 1 mm for high-traffic areas including kitchens	₹1,100-1,850

AICA has not published a use guide per thickness on any page checked, so the guidance in the table comes from another maker and is a general rule, not an AICA specification.

AICA laminate price per sq ft and a kitchen estimate

Divide the sheet price by 32 for an 8x4 ft sheet: the ₹1,400 AICA listing is ₹44 per sq ft, and a ₹1,100 sheet is ₹34 per sq ft. If a dealer quotes a different sheet size, divide by that sheet's area instead (a 7x3.25 ft sheet is 22.75 sq ft).

PlyPrice estimate (method: add up the surface to be covered, add 10% for cutting waste, divide by 32 sq ft per sheet and round up, then multiply by the price per sheet). For a 10 ft straight kitchen with 60 sq ft of shutter fronts, 60 x 1.1 ÷ 32 = 2.1, so you need 3 sheets of 1 mm. At the single ₹1,400 AICA listing that is about ₹4,200 in laminate; across the ₹1,100-1,850 branded 1 mm band it is ₹3,300-5,550. This covers laminate only, not adhesive, labour, edge banding, the board underneath, transport or GST where a quote excludes it.

Who makes AICA Sunmica, and where

AICA Sunmica is the Indian laminate brand of AICA Laminates India Pvt Ltd, which trade interviews describe as a Japanese-owned company; a 2017 interview says the brand changed hands in 2011 and names AICA Kogyo Co. Ltd, Japan, as the owner. AICA Kogyo's Indonesian group website lists Aica Laminates India Pvt. Ltd. among its offices, with a New Delhi address, and names India among the Asian markets in its sales and production network. A trade directory article lists the Indian company as founded in 2011.

The same directory article names a plant in Rudrapur (Uttarakhand) and an office address in Ahmedabad, Gujarat. A March 2023 interview adds that the Rudrapur plant was to make edge bands and pre-laminated boards and that warehouses and sales offices in Ahmedabad, Delhi, Lucknow, Chennai, Hyderabad and Mumbai had been revamped. Capacity and current product lines at the plant were not stated in any source checked.

AICA Sunmica ranges and finishes

AICA's own catalogue could not be read, so the ranges below come from dated trade interviews and are a guide to what the brand has promoted, not a current design list. A September 2017 interview with a distributor lists textured finishes, 3D-look designs, the Synchronized Series, shimmer finishes and a Japanese Trends Collection. Trade-press headlines also record a Kaiya range of Japanese design laminates shown at the Acetech trade fair in Mumbai in 2018 and new arrivals in a textile finish.

Textured and designer finishes are the most expensive part of any laminate range. Across all brands, premium 1 mm collections listed at ₹2,100-3,300 in November 2026, against ₹1,100-1,850 for ordinary suede and gloss. Ask your dealer for the design code and the exact price of that design, because the same brand and thickness can span a wide range. For an overview of finishes and sheet types, see the types of laminates guide.

How AICA compares with other laminate options

AICA is one of several decorative laminate makers, and the useful comparison is between like sheets: same thickness, finish, size and what the quote includes. The March 2023 interview described AICA as pricing around ₹1,100 per sheet and said lower-priced sheets from unbranded sellers were around ₹600-700, which is the company's view of its own position, not an independent comparison.

Check	AICA Sunmica	Other branded laminates (general)
Published price list	Not found	Greenlam, CenturyLaminates and Virgo pages checked also show no sheet prices
Thickness stated	1 mm and 0.8 mm (trade interview)	Several makers publish 0.6 to 1.5 mm ranges on their own sites
Sheet size stated	8x4 ft on one listing	8x4 ft is the usual size; some makers also sell 7x3.25 ft or 4x10 ft
Certification text	Not found	Varies; ask for the licence number
Warranty	Not found	Rarely stated with a period; ask for the card

Because AICA publishes little that could be read, ask for the same documents from every dealer you compare: design code, thickness, size, batch, GST-inclusive delivered price and any warranty. For a spec-based comparison of makers that do publish this, see best laminate brands in India.

Where AICA Sunmica is sold

Trade interviews describe AICA selling through dealers, sub-dealers and distributors. In March 2023 AICA's chief operating officer listed company-owned stock points in Ahmedabad, Bangalore, Kolkata, Delhi, Lucknow, Hyderabad, Indore, Pune, Mumbai and Chennai, and distributor-based stock points in Punjab, Jaipur, Bhubaneswar, Patna and Coimbatore. These are dated, so confirm a stock point is still active before planning a project around it.

The Bengaluru listing found in November 2026 is a reminder that sellers also list AICA Sunmica on IndiaMART. Treat a listing as an enquiry route, not a confirmed price or stock, and ask for the invoice to show AICA and the design code.

How to buy and verify AICA Sunmica sheets

Check the brand, thickness, batch, licence and paperwork before the carpenter cuts a sheet, because a glued sheet cannot be exchanged.

Write the brand and code on the quote. Say "AICA Sunmica", the design and finish code, thickness (0.8 mm or 1 mm), size and quantity, because "sunmica" alone can mean any brand.
Ask for the licence number. IS 2046 is the Indian Standard for decorative laminated sheets. BIS has revised it into an eight-part series identical to ISO 4586, and a BIS circular dated 24 February 2026 extends concurrent running of the old IS 2046:1995 and the new parts to 24 March 2027, so a licence or test report may cite either edition. If the pack carries the ISI mark, note the licence number (CM/L- followed by 10 digits) and verify it in the BIS Care app (Verify Licence Details) or on Manak Online (Status of Licence). AICA's licence could not be checked for this page, so confirm the holder's name and the standard on the record yourself.
Measure the thickness. Use a vernier caliper on two or three edges and compare with the invoice; 0.8 mm and 1 mm sheets look alike in a stack, and AICA says it does not substitute 0.92 mm sheets.
Match codes and batch. Every sheet for one job should show the same design code, finish code and batch, especially in whites and solid colours.
Inspect faces and edges. Look under low-angle light for dents, scratches, chipped corners and print defects before you sign the delivery note.
Get the paperwork. The invoice should list brand, design and finish code, thickness, size, quantity and GST. Ask whether a warranty card exists, since none was found published.
Compare delivered prices. Put GST, cutting, loading and transport into each quote. For the board under the laminate, see plywood grades for kitchen cabinets.

The brand's group website is aica.co.id, which lists the Indian company among its offices; the page checked shows no Indian dealer locator, so ask the dealer for the manufacturer's contact details and verify with them.
