Extraction Process :

We use High end Steam distillation Modules  in order to extract sandalwood oil with High purity. Steam distillation is a process in which steam heated at extremely high temperatures is passed through the powdered wood. The steam releases the sandalwood essential oil that is locked within the cellular structure of the wood.

The mixture of steam and oil then flows through a condenser and cools, yielding a layer of oil and a layer of water. The Sandawood oil separates from the by -product ( Hydrosol )at the Top of the container so it could be separated . The distillation process for sandalwood oil takes anywhere from 14 to 36 hours, longer than for many other essential oils. Despite the fact that this method requires a longer process than other distillation methods, it’s known to produce superior quality oil, yielding santalol 91.8%
