Introduction
Rattan, a term derived from the Malay word for climbing palms, ‘rotan’, is a specialised group of scaly-
[1][2][3][4]
fruited, spiny, climbing palms which belong to the family Palmae or Arecaceae . Rattans are
monocotyledons with flexible stem and are generally found in tropical humid forest. The slender stem
of the rattan is often winding like a rope and armed with thorns or bristle. It has a diameter of less than
10 cm and reaches a length of about 30 m after ten years of growth. In rare cases some species can grow
up to 200 m long.
About 620 species of rattan occur in the tropical and subtropical rainforest ecosystems of Australia
(Queensland), India, Bangladesh, Sri Lanka, Southeast Asia (Indonesia, Malaysia, Cambodia, Philippines,
Laos, and Vietnam among others), the moist tropical forests of West and Central Africa (most especially
Central Africa, Ghana Cameroon, and Nigeria) and the Pacific (e.g., Fiji). However, South East Asian
nations primarily the Philippines, Malaysia, and Indonesia are the top producers of rattan products
and raw materials. Though a few species of rattan have been cultivated in Indonesia and a few other
countries, the greatest proportion of production originates from natural forests.
Rattan is harvested for its cane, a versatile renewable material that has been used for making various
products such as furniture, baskets, mats, walking sticks, handbags and crafts. Rattan cultivation,
processing and utilisation constitute a major topic of interest in many parts of the globe in view of its
role in poverty alleviation, employment generation and foreign exchange earnings. According to UN
comtrade 2013, imports of rattan products globally neared USD 745 million. Global demand for rattan
products is strong and new designs for rattan furniture and basketry products continue to appeal to
modern consumers. Indonesia remains the major rattan product exporter, but China and Vietnam are
increasing their share of the global rattan trade despite being short of raw rattan, whilst the Philippines,
Myanmar, Malaysia, Thailand, Cambodia and Laos have plentiful resources but export is only relatively
limited quantities.
Currently, the global trade of rattan and its products is hampered by presence of a confusing
terminology in the rattan sector. Rattan materials and produ
