Sandalwood Oil “Indian”, Australia

If the notion of terroir is less important to you than the sustainability and ethics of your raw materials, this is the sandalwood for you. Not only is our Australian Santalum Album environmentally friendly, it also has the beauty and regal quality of classical Mysore sandalwood - the sandalwood of epic poems and history. Australia is now a source of both Santalum Album (“Indian” Sandalwood) and Santalum Spicatum (an Australian native). This product is the Indian variety.

Environmental Data

We can trace each batch of our Australian sandalwood oil down to the hectare of trees from which it was extracted. Using continuous distillation, our supplier is able to lower their energy needs by 75% compared to regular distillation, and of the remaining energy used over 80% is from renewable sources. The entire plantation absorbs 195,000 tonnes of carbon dioxide from the atmosphere each year.

Carbon Zero Transport

Because we are right next door to Australia we don't need to ship our sandalwood oil half way across the planet before we offer it to you; the trip from “farm” to Fraterworks is a short carbon zero flight.
