Harvesting
Quintis’ custom harvesting equipment is used to harvest over 100 trees an hour. Did you know the stump of the sandalwood tree can contain up to 30% of the total oil in the tree? We developed ‘The Corer’ to remove the sandalwood stumps completely after sandalwood trees are cut down at their base.
