At Atommek, we design and manufacture Colophony (Rosin) Resin Plants that meet global standards for efficiency, safety, and quality. Colophony, also known as rosin, is a natural resin obtained from pine trees and widely used across industries such as adhesives, inks, varnishes, coatings, cosmetics, rubber, and electronics.
Our turnkey solutions give clients full access to every stage of the process, from resin handling to final purification, ensuring optimized yield, reduced losses, and consistent product quality.
What is Colophony Resin?
Colophony (or rosin) is a solid resin obtained by distilling pine resin.
- Main Components: Abietic acid and related resin acids.
- Appearance: Transparent, brittle, ranging from pale yellow to dark amber.
- Key Properties: Excellent adhesion, chemical reactivity, and film-forming ability.
These properties make colophony a vital raw material in industrial production worldwide.
Atommek’s Step-by-Step Process
We deliver fully automated, custom-engineered plants with a proven step-by-step approach:
- Site Visit & Infrastructure Check
