Italian term or phrase: a basso livello di raffinazione
"la rimozione spinta degli acidi resinici, che rende quindi possibile l’impiego di tall oil a basso livello di raffinazione e quindi l’impiego di materie prime a basso costo"

Can anyoner think of a snappy way to say this?
The tall oil is not completely unrefined, it has been processed to a modest extent.
