About Gum Copal

Gum Copal is the mature form of natural resin of forest trees. The gum copal from Indonesia is a natural resinous material of the Bur sera bipinnate plant. Gum Copal is a very environmentally friendly and high quality natural resin which is soluble in ethanol. Due to common impurities and differences in regions, gum copal ranges in color from black to yellow to white. It is characterized by its hardness and relatively high melting point. It also has a mint and turpentine odor.  

Manufacturing Process

Gum Copal is collected by tapping the living forest tree. The gum copal is stored in the bark and the most common way to extract the resin is by cutting the bark and letting the resin flow out. The collected resin is filtered and cleaned to remove the impurities. There are different varieties of gum copal depending on the factors such as geographic, environmental, and the process by which it is collected i.e. the type of tapping used. Gum Copal which is pale, clean, and has good solubility in alcohol, is considered to be the best quality. For example, the high-quality resin Prime White Soft (PWS) is high in alcohol solubility, light yellow, and low in grime.

For businesses looking for high-quality resin, finding a reliable Gum Copal Distributor and trusted Gum Copal Suppliers is essential to ensure the best products for various industrial applications.
