NATURE’S VERSATILE SOLVENT
High-Grade Turpentine
Turpentine is the natural aromatic compounds found in pine trees that give them their distinct fragrance and flavour.
Like our Rosin products, Foresta Turpentine is extracted using a chemical-free, continuous counterflow steam distillation process. As most turpentine extraction involves petrochemical solvents, the Foresta product is highly valued for its purity and environmentally friendly process.
