FANTASTIC INVESTMENT OPPORTUNITIES

FANTASTIC INVESTMENT OPPORTUNITIES

Agarwood is the heartwood found at the centre of Gyrinops and Aquilaria trees. These trees are large evergreen species found naturally in certain parts of Southeast Asia including Cambodia and Thailand. The valuable heartwood is created when the centre of the tree is infected with a certain type of mould. This produces a one-time chemical reaction inside the trunk itself transforming the core into a dark, dense timber that is saturated in heavily scented resin.

The final result of this reaction, also knows as Oud, has such an attractive and strong scent that it is highly sought after for use in the production of incense, perfumes and essential oils across the world and is also used in the development of some more traditional medicines.

Different Types of Oud

Depending on the type of tree grown and the location of the plantation, the resulting Oud can have a varying range of qualities to fulfil the differing requirements for this product

.

Oud al Seyufi is the darkest of all the resins created in the region and is derived from some of the best Agarwood found in the plantations of Thailand and Cambodia. Thanks to its age and high quality, though the aroma of this product is initially very heavy, it soon transforms into a sweet, strong smell that is perfect for use in creating some of the most highly sought after fragrances of today.

Oud al Safii comes from Agarwood grown on the border between Thailand and Cambodia. With woody undertones, this attractive scent is able to remain on the skin for longer which builds longevity in the perfumes it is used to create. Oud al Safii Thai is a lighter, oily resin which is grown within the Thai province of Trat. The zesty aroma and pure form of the final product makes this ideal for the production of essential oils and related products.

Though most Oud is supplied in a syrupy liquid form, it is also possible to produce Oud Powder and Wood-chips. The wood-chips themselves can be burned directly to produce a wonderful aroma while the powder is used to create incense sticks in order to release its delicious scent.

The Benefits of Managed Plantations

Though Gyrinops and Aquilaria trees are found naturally within the plantations regions, the development of managed sites for Agarwood has not only made is it possible for a sustainable and continuous source of this valuable product to be developed, but it also enables the facilities themselves to oversee the entire Oud extraction process. By keeping the entire procedure on-site, the expert management team are able to maintain a level of quality control that is not possible in the wild and ensure the level of supply is able to meet the increasing demand for such a highly valued product.

From the growth of the initial seed through to the final supply, such control ensures the final product delivered to the marketplace is in its purest form, thus maintaining the best price for the commodity and a high rate of return for all those that choose to invest.

The True Value of Eucalyptus

The True Value of Eucalyptus

Traditionally used in the charcoal and pulp paper industry, the new developments in the use of Eucalyptus biomass to create a cleaner fuel source have led to the creation of a whole new interest in an outstanding species.

Focusing on high rain fall areas such as the Amazon and Brazil, the use of Eucalyptus to create a sustainable energy source has brought to light the benefit of Eucalyptus both for the environment and the economy as a whole.

Thanks to its rapid growing nature, Eucalyptus is the perfect material to create a biomass product that is more effective and more efficient than fossil alternatives.

Not only does it occur organically in many parts of the globe and act as a natural windbreak, but Eucalyptus also has the ability to grow on areas that have been previously deforested. This enables the reintroduction of green into areas that have been left baron and also protects vital areas of forest from further farming where Eucalyptus can be more efficiently and more effectively produced.

As a result, the Eucalyptus growing industry are now working closely with the indigenous people and local governments in certain landscapes to identify areas of land that the natives are willing to donate to Eucalyptus plantations in order to exploit the benefits that such production brings to the area and protect their remaining forests from further destruction.

As Eucalyptus is also able to absorb a higher level of carbon than many of its counterparts, development of new plantations also works as a natural limiter of Green House Gasses and can have a positive impact on the global footprint, meaning the entire process is kinder to the environment now and in the future.

This rapid growing species is already the most common form of pulp lumber developed in specified regions for the use in biomass energy production and its popularity is set to explode.

As well as having a strong crop density, Eucalyptus has also been found to excel using recently developed agro-forestry techniques and can produce up to 100m3 of Eucalyptus wood per hectare of land, maximising potential investment opportunities.

The ability to use the same area for regrowth again and again keeps the overall investment cost low and ensures that the rate of return is optimised for all those that are keen to invest.

In Brazil alone, growth of the Eucalyptus export industry has risen from $1 billion in the nineties to $3.5 billion in 2005 and continues to climb, attracting the attention of potential investors from across the world. The species has been identified as the hardwood tree with the most potential to create the level of biomass required to fulfil the demands of an every growing industry and interest in its possibilities continues to grow.

Current predictions suggest that the return on investment for Eucalyptus is now in excess of 20%, an excellent rate of return for private investment or pension fund growth over a medium term.

Such a high yielding crop provides environmentally and financially sound reasons for use within the bio fuel industry and creates a greater value to Eucalyptus than ever previously considered possible.
