1770
The discovery of a remarkable remedy
When British explorer James Cook landed in southeast Australia in 1770, he observed local Aborigines brewing the “tea tree” leaves as a tea. Impressed by the tea, he gathered leaves for the use of his crew throughout the remainder of his voyages.

1922
Documented benefits
In 1922, Australian chemist Arthur de Ramon Penfold brought new attention to the oil of Melaleuca alternifolia in a report to the Museum of Applied Arts and Sciences in Sydney. The report hailed tea tree oil as effective in dealing with a variety of ailments.

1939
The First Aid Kit in a Bottle
By World War II, tea tree oil was in full production. It was standard issue in the first aid kits of both Australian and British troops. In fact, soldiers dubbed tea tree oil the “first aid kit in a bottle” for its versatility in treating many different types of wounds. They found tea tree oil particularly effective in staving off the various fungal infections common in the wet, warm tropics of the South Pacific.
The Australian government, recognising the oil’s ability to help wounds heal, commandeered the entire supply of tea tree oil for the war effort, and those involved in its production were exempted from military service.
1985
Healing powers brought to the world
In 1985, a young company called Melaleuca, Inc. became the first to bring the healing, soothing powers of Melaleuca Oil to people all over the world.
President of the fledgling Melaleuca, Inc., visited Australia in 1985 for a firsthand look at the Melaleuca alternifolia plantation.
The Future
Many new discoveries have been and will continue to be made from Melaleuca Oil.
In the last decade, research has been conducted tying Melaleuca Oil to helping fight bacteria like MRSA, fungal infections like athlete’s foot, and even treating acne. The possibilities are endless and we eagerly seek new discoveries.

An oil like no other.
T-what?
T stands for terpinen-4-ol. Terpinen-4-ol gives Melaleuca Oil its antiseptic powers. T36-C5 Melaleuca Oil is 36% terpinen-4-ol, exceeding the Australian quality standard of 30%.
C-who?
Cineole gives Melaleuca Oil its penetrating power. Too much cineole and the oil can be irritating. The “5” means that the oil is only 5% cineole—far stricter than the Australian quality standard, which allows 15% cineole.
