About Us

Pine Chemicals Association is an international trade association, representing over 20 countries. The PCA is the only association dedicated exclusively to the global pine chemicals industry. The PCA speaks on behalf of the industry on a variety of issues, including sustainable forestry; offers information about pine chemicals to the general public, develops industry publications on markets and technology, administers technical information and training, and provides its members exclusive access to the latest industry facts and figures, events, as well as, networking opportunities. Most recently PCA has been voicing its position regarding government mandates and subsidies for bio-fuel use.

 

Membership to the PCA is open to any organization in the business of manufacturing or marketing chemical products derived from the pulp and forest products industries, including gum rosin, black liquor skimmings, crude tall oil, crude turpentine and fractionated turpentine and tall oil products and their derivatives.
