About Gum Turpentine Oil - Argentina
Gum turpentine oil is a natural liquid extracted through the steam distillation of resin obtained from various pine tree species, primarily belonging to the Pinus genus. This unrefined oil possesses a complex and diverse composition, featuring a spectrum of terpenes, including pinene, camphene, and limonene.

Manufacturing ProcessTurpentine oil is produced from Pine Tree. The resins are collected, and then it is sent to a factory where it is melted. Further distillation and condensation yield turpentine oil. Pine Tree -> Sap Collection -> Fresh resins -> Steam boiler to melt resins -> Distillation of resin -> Condensation of volatile compounds -> Turpentine Oil
