Dipterocarpus turbinatus is a species of tree in the family Dipterocarpaceae native to north-eastern India and mainland Southeast Asia, and cultivated in surrounding regions. It is an important source of the wood known as keruing, and is often used in the plywood industry
It is found in mixed deciduous, evergreen and semievergreen forests. In Cambodia, one description of the habitats is wet, dense forest, sometimes on sandy, clayey soils, sometimes on red soils. The conservation status is based on the rate of habitat loss, the major threat for the species, though some subpopulations are protected in reserves
The resin of the tree (known internationally as East Indian copaiba balsam) is used in India, where it is the source of kanyin oil and gurjun oil, and in Cambodia, where the almost solid resin is especially used to prepare torches. The red brown wood has use documented for India, Cambodia and Yunnan, China. In Cambodia, the wood is popular for sawing, woodwork, and tea-cabinet work. In herbal medicine, the plant has been traditionally used for treating gonorrhea, leprosy, psoriasis, and other skin diseases. In the home gardens of South China, it is cultivated both as a medicinal and as a perfume plant
