Цікавий факт
Pandanus tectorius fruit is a major food source across the Pacific Islands, where individual segments (keys) are eaten raw or cooked. In the Marshall Islands, the pandanus fruit is considered so important that there are over 200 named varieties — more named cultivars than exist for any other Pacific Island food crop.

Kewra water (from P. odorifer flowers) is produced by hydrodistillation and is a traditional Indian perfumery ingredient used in attar production. Pandan leaf (P. amaryllifolius) is more frequent in food than fragrance. Essential oil yields vary by species.
