Historical Data:
Australia is a home of almost all, over 600 eucalyptus species, where they constitute approximately 75% of its all tree floras. The eucalyptus oil industry in Australia reached its peak in the early post war years, in 1947.
Australian eucalyptus oil was used to help control a meningitis outbreak and for the influenza of 1919.
Nowadays, only 5-10% of World eucalyptus oil is produced in Australia, positioned in the niche market of highest quality eucalyptus oils for medicinal and aromatherapy use.
The largest producer of eucalyptus oil is China.
The active therapeutic and principal constituent of eucalyptus oils is 1,8-cineol, which should be not less than 70% according to BP (British Pharmacopoeia).
In modern World, many eucalyptus oils, sold as BP (medicinal) grade are blended and redistilled, mostly come from Chinese E. Globulus.

Main Applications of Eucalyptus Blue Mallee Oil
Best known as a decongestant inhalation for colds and catarrh. During cold or flu, the nasal and lower respiratory passages become swollen and constricted, this makes breathing difficult. Research indicates that inhalation with eucalyptus oil can significantly improve respiratory function. The mechanism of action is reflex, nerve stimulation by essential oils of cold receptors in the nose (decongestant action). Also there is enhanced production of surfactant in lungs during cold and flu (wet cough); along with menthol, eucalyptus oil reduces surface tension between water and air in the lungs, working as expectorant.
- E. Blue Mallee is the best known home remedy for colds; especially it is useful for sinus conditions because it can be breathed very closely without triggering a cough reflex. Many sources say it is the oil of choice for infections high up in the chest. The oil is used as an inhalant with boiling water, or a few drops are placed on a handkerchief, for children – a lump of sugar or honey with a drop of eucalyptus oil.
- Widely used for treatment of asthma and bronchitis
- For the relief of colds, muscular pain, rheumatism, and similar complaints
- As disinfectant (spray with eucalyptus oil) and to freshen the atmosphere in sick rooms
- As insecticide
- As a cleaning agent (cleans the traces of sticky tape)
