Indian Sandalwood Powder - Product Sheet INDIAN SANDALWOOD (SANTALUM ALBUM) POWDER

Our suite of fragrant Indian sandalwood heartwood powders is created by grinding the heartwood of Indian sandalwood trees into fine particles of various sizes. Containing between 7 – 9% Indian sandalwood oil, the heartwood powders are highly aromatic and smooth to the touch. One of the oldest cosmetic ingredients in history, it is known as an essential ingredient in Ayurvedic applications for soothing and brightening skin tone. When applied on the skin, the powders feel light, powdery, and smooth. When mixed with Indian sandalwood oil in formulations, the bioactive properties of sandalwood are boosted. Indian sandalwood heartwood powder has also traditionally been used to create incense sticks, which are burned in rituals and religious practices. At AR78, we produce high-quality Indian sandalwood heartwood powder products suitable for various applications. The Indian Sandalwood Extra Fine Powder is suitable for skincare and cosmetic applications, while Indian Sandalwood Heartwood Powders for incense are produced according to customer requirements
