Rattan is a climbing thorny palm and the most important non-timber forest product in Indonesia. About 85% of the world's rattan needs are met by rattan exports from Indonesia. Rattan is widely used by weaving because it is light and durable, making it suitable for making handicrafts.

Rattan wicker products in Indonesia vary, for example woven furniture, bags and wallets, shoes and sandals, lampshades, mats or mats, placemats for glasses and plates, baskets, and even pillows. Rattan can also be a basic building material for both interior and exterior.
