How Does Balsam Fir Oil Get Its Origin?
Balsam Fir essential oil is sourced in Canada through Co-Impact Sourcing®. Balsam Fir oil is produced using the same unique, sustainable extraction process as Black Spruce essential oil.

What Is Balsam Fir Oil?
Balsam fir evergreen trees, native to North America, tower more than 24 meters tall and produce thick clusters of needle-like leaves. The balsam fir is primarily used for pulp and construction, does not respond well to pollution, and is not common in urban areas – preferring the lush forests of Canada where the air is fresh and clean. Balsam Fir essential oil is steam-distilled from the bark of the tree.
Which Essential Oils Blend Well with Balsam Fir Oil?
