Forchem is a pioneer in the research and development of crude tall oil, creating CTO-based products for various industrial processes. CTO is a natural and sustainable alternative to non-renewable raw materials. It is generated from pine trees through the kraft pulping process, after which it is refined and upgraded in our biorefinery in Rauma. The refined crude tall oil products are used as raw materials in paints, coatings and printing inks.
