Uses

In colonial times in India, the fibrous bark of this tree was found to be an ideal substitute for beech bark as matches for matchlocks.[4]

The Careya arborea leaves are traditionally used to roll cheroots in Myanmar (Burma).[3] The town of Pyay (formerly Prome) is known for a local delicacy known as taw laphet (Шаблон:My; Шаблон:Lit) or Шаблон:IAST laphet (Шаблон:My) that is tightly packed in parcel-like Careya arborea leaves for fermentation and preservation purposes.[5]

Flowers and young leaves are eaten as salad greens in Thailand. Young fruit is reported to be edible, though seeds are slightly poisonous.[6]

"It [Careya arborea] is useful for gun-stocks, &c.; its fibrous bark is used as matches for match-locks. The Ordnance Department, when searching for a wood suitable for fuses to be used instead of the English beech, were recommended to try this wood, and did so, pronouncing it in every way suitable for the purpose."
