WHY INDIAN SANDALWOOD

Indian Sandalwood has a history of demand spanning thousands of years and is nearing extinction in its natural environments. Subsequently, Indian Sandalwood is the world’s most expensive tropical hardwood and continues to increase in price each year. It currently trades for over A$107,000 per tonne.

Indian Sandalwood plantation management in the ORIA has a history of nearly 20 years’ of government research. The Forest Products Commission (FPC) of WA (previously Department of Conservation and Land Management), began trial plantations in the 1980’s. Peter Kimber and Chris Done, Australia’s foremost experts in Sandalwood forestry were head foresters on these trials and are both now employed by TFS as consultants to oversee the development of TFS plantations and to assist with ongoing research programs.
