Large Camphor Tablets (also called Big Camphor Tablets or camphor discs) are larger-format, compressed pure camphor tablets designed for applications requiring extended burn time, stronger vapour output, or slow passive fragrance release. AuraCam’s Gold Standard Large Camphor Tablets are 100% pure camphor – no synthetic fillers or binders – and are especially suited for havan (fire offerings), Ayurvedic steam inhalation, wardrobe moth and insect protection, and large-space air purification. They are available in 50g, 100g, 250g, and 500g packs.
AuraCam’s Gold Standard Large Camphor Tablets are the go-to choice for every camphor application where size and duration matter. Whether you are conducting a full havan ceremony, practising Ayurvedic steam inhalation, protecting an entire wardrobe, or creating long-lasting camphor fragrance in a large room – the big camphor tablet format delivers sustained performance that small tablets simply cannot match.
Large Camphor Tablets are compressed camphor discs that are significantly bigger than standard small pooja tablets. Their larger mass means more camphor per tablet, a longer and more sustained burn or sublimation period, and a stronger, more persistent fragrance output – making them the preferred format for specific high-demand applications.

Havan (also called homam or yagna) is a Vedic fire ritual in which offerings are made into a sacred fire. Camphor is one of the purest and most auspicious offerings in havan, valued for its ability to burn completely without residue, its purifying aromatic properties, and its Vedic significance as a symbol of divine light and clarity.
Large camphor tablets are the practical and ceremonially appropriate choice for havan for three key reasons: their size makes them easy to offer individually into the fire, their longer burn time sustains the sacred flame between other offerings, and their higher camphor mass per tablet means more aromatic purification vapour released during the ritual.
Steam inhalation with camphor is one of Ayurveda’s most widely practised home remedies for upper respiratory congestion, nasal blockage, sinusitis, cold, cough, and breathing discomfort. Large camphor tablets dissolve evenly in hot water, releasing a controlled, sustained concentration of camphor vapour – making them significantly more efficient for steam inhalation than small tablets or loose camphor crystals.
Safety notice: Steam inhalation is for adults and older children (12+) under supervision only. Do not ingest camphor. Do not place face over boiling water. Keep the bowl stable and away from children during use. Those with epilepsy, high blood pressure, or heart conditions should consult a physician before use.
Frequency: 1–2 sessions per day during active cold or congestion. Do not exceed this frequency. Steam inhalation is a supportive remedy and should not replace medical treatment for serious respiratory conditions.
Protecting stored clothing and textiles from moths, silverfish, and fabric-damaging insects is one of the most common household uses of camphor in India. Large camphor tablets are significantly more effective than small tablets for this purpose – their greater mass means more sustained camphor vapour concentration in enclosed spaces, providing longer protection without the need to replace tablets as frequently.
While small tablets are ideal for daily individual pooja, large camphor tablets are the ceremonially appropriate choice for longer rituals, special occasions, and group worship where a larger, more sustained flame is meaningful and required.
Pure camphor has documented antimicrobial and air-purifying properties. Placing large camphor tablets passively in rooms, bathrooms, or storage areas slowly releases camphor vapour that inhibits airborne bacteria and fungi while maintaining a clean, subtle fragrance. The larger size is especially effective in medium-to-large rooms and humid spaces where a small tablet’s vapour output would be insufficient.
In Ayurvedic home practice, camphor-infused oil is used topically for muscle pain, joint inflammation, cold relief (chest rub), and minor skin conditions. Large camphor tablets dissolve more efficiently in carrier oils due to their higher camphor concentration per unit, making them the preferred choice for oil preparation over small tablets.
Important: Always dilute camphor in carrier oil before topical use. Never apply undiluted camphor to skin. Do not use on broken skin, near eyes, or on children under 2 years. Seek medical advice for serious pain conditions.

The camphor market in India is saturated with adulterated products. Many brands sell synthetic camphor (derived from turpentine oil) or camphor blended with chemical fillers – which burns poorly, produces toxic smoke, and lacks therapeutic value. Here is why AuraCam is the trusted choice for genuine large camphor tablets:
Large camphor tablets are bigger, heavier camphor discs that burn longer, produce more sustained camphor vapour, and are better suited for applications requiring extended duration – such as havan, steam inhalation, and wardrobe protection. Small camphor tablets are lighter, quicker-burning, and better suited for precise daily pooja portions, electric diffusers, and aarti. Both are 100% pure camphor – the difference is purely in size, mass, and the resulting performance characteristics. AuraCam offers both formats separately so customers can choose the right tablet for each use case.
For a standard domestic havan lasting 30–60 minutes, typically 10–20 large camphor tablets are used depending on the ritual’s intensity, number of offerings, and the pandit’s or householder’s tradition. More elaborate or longer havans (1–3 hours) may require 30–50 tablets. AuraCam’s 250g pack (approximately 80–100 large tablets) is sufficient for 4–6 standard domestic havans. The 500g pack is the practical choice for temples and institutions conducting regular havan.
Yes – large camphor tablets are the ideal format for Ayurvedic steam inhalation. One large tablet dissolved in a bowl of hot water produces the optimal camphor vapour concentration for a single 5–10 minute steam inhalation session. Using small tablets requires 2–3 at once to achieve the same effect. The uniform, pre-measured large tablet format makes each steam session consistent and convenient. See the step-by-step guide in the Steam Inhalation section above for complete instructions and safety guidelines.
In a standard closed Indian wardrobe section (approximately 60×50 cm shelf space), a single AuraCam large camphor tablet placed in an open dish will typically last 6–10 weeks before fully sublimating. Factors that affect longevity include how tightly the wardrobe is sealed, ambient temperature (hotter conditions accelerate sublimation), and whether the wardrobe is opened frequently. For best protection, place 1–2 large tablets per shelf section and check monthly, replacing when the tablet has visibly reduced to less than one-third its original size.
AuraCam’s large camphor tablets are Gold Standard certified 100% pure camphor – verified through three quality indicators. First, appearance: genuine pure camphor is white to semi-translucent with a strong natural aroma, never bright white or chemical-smelling. Second, the burn test: pure camphor burns completely with a bright, steady flame and leaves zero black residue. Synthetic or adulterated camphor smokes, sputters, and leaves black soot on the vessel. Third, the water test: pure camphor floats on water and dissolves completely in alcohol without residue. AuraCam guarantees all three criteria for every batch, backed by quality certification on every pack.
AuraCam Gold Standard Large Camphor Tablets are priced as follows (after 10% discount with code DIVINE10): 50g pack approximately Rs. 92; 100g pack approximately Rs. 158; 250g pack approximately Rs. 401; 500g pack approximately Rs. 720. The 250g and 500g packs offer the best cost-per-gram value for regular havan, wardrobe, and steam inhalation users. All packs include free shipping across India.
Yes, with one adjustment: break large tablets in half before placing in an electric diffuser. Most AuraCam electric diffusers are designed for small tablets or Bhimseni camphor crystals, and a whole large tablet may not fit the diffuser tray or may produce more vapour than the device is designed for. Half a large tablet will typically provide 2–4 hours of camphor aromatherapy in a standard room. For continuous daytime diffusion, AuraCam recommends using small tablets or Bhimseni camphor crystals with the electric diffuser, reserving large tablets for havan, steam, and wardrobe applications.
Camphor sublimates (converts from solid to vapour) at room temperature, so storage in an airtight container is essential. After opening the original AuraCam pack, transfer unused tablets to a clean, airtight glass or food-grade plastic container with a tight-fitting lid. Store in a cool, dark cupboard away from the kitchen and any heat sources. In hot summer months, refrigerator storage in a sealed zip-lock bag prevents rapid sublimation. Properly stored in an airtight container, large camphor tablets retain full potency for up to 18 months.
