About Australian Sandalwood Essential Oil:

Australian Sandalwood is a unique native tree crop which is grown for its highly valued aromatic heartwood - renowned for its fragrant and medicinal properties.

The essential oil of sandalwood possesses strong antimicrobial, anti-inflammatory and astringent properties.

Although it was once an over-exploited crop in serious decline, cultivation of Australian Sandalwood is now expanding and can adequately meet the needs of the worldwide natural products market; its cultivation is a well supported and growing industry that is spurred on by private landowners, farmers and government programs in Australia. In fact, Australian Sandalwood is the highest growth tree crop in the Western Australian wheatbelt alone, with over 10,000 hectares of established plantations in that region.
