Property

Few plants can boast such a well-established medicinal tradition as the Copaifera.
Its resin (Copaiba) has been the ancient remedy of the forest for centuries, the powerful natural medicine used by the indigenous populations of the Amazon. Even today, South American "curanderos" use it to treat virtually every skin problem. The essential oil obtained from Copaiba, completely non-toxic, is rich in oleic acid and linoleic acid, which are known to contribute to both skin regeneration and rehydration : for this reason, it can be considered a powerful healing agent. It also has excellent stimulating, antiseptic, anti-inflammatory, and fungicidal properties, proving effective in the treatment of skin irritations, ulcers, eczema, and psoriasis. However, the product's vaunted soothing properties for bruises, joint pain, and rheumatism remain undocumented.

Uses

Copaiba oil is commonly used in the manufacture of lacquers and paints, and is also a raw material for various applications in the chemical industry, the most well-known of which is certainly the production of fuel (biodiesel): a single tree can produce 40 liters of fuel annually. The essence, thanks to its fixing
properties, is occasionally used in perfumery, in the formulation of bath products, in lotions, and in soap making.

Botany

Copaifera is a large leguminous tree that grows in the South American rainforests. It reaches forty meters in height and has a sturdy trunk, hairless branches, reddish leaves, and small white flowers. Its majestic crown is distinctive. The tree's bark spontaneously exudes a thick, stimulating oleoresin called copaiba, which is highly prized and varies in color from golden to brown (depending on its essential oil content).
