Natural Aroma Diffuser
Australian Made <3
The Banksia Grandis seed pod (the material from which they are made) is particularly porous. It soaks up any essential oil and slowly releases the aroma through its pores. No flames and no electricity are needed with our all natural diffuser and best of all it comes with a lifetime guarantee
A particular type of Banksia called ‘Grandis' is used during the manufacturing process of this product. It is also commonly known as Bull Banksia or Giant Banksia. This variety grows particularly large and has a very dense centre making it ideal for woodturning.
The tree itself will grow to approximately 10 metres, it produces brilliant yellow flowers followed by the large seed pod. In the extreme temperatures of the Western Australian Bush the pods open up to release seeds for regermination.
Responsibility & Sustainability
The collection of the Banskia Grandis is highly regulated by the Department of Parks and Wildlife Western Australia. It is our supplier’s responsibility that the landscape is undisturbed and that the Banksia trees continue to thrive in the Australian bush.Â
The seed pods collected have expelled their seeds and have completed the lifecycle of the plant. They are carefully handpicked to ensure no damage is done to the tree itself or the Australian bushland. The collectors go in to the bush on foot, careful not to disturb any surrounding plants or wildlife and no heavy machinery is used during this process.Â
A royalty is paid to the Western Australian Forestry per seed pod, which goes to aid in forest management and conservation. The pickers are designated certain areas to collect the pods, and these are constantly changing to ensure no one area is ever depleted. Only 10% of the Banksia Seed Pods can be collected in any one area at a time. It is also our mission to support other Harvesters in their endeavours to regenerate Australian bushland.
