Opportunities in new applications and markets

While vetiver oil has traditionally been utilized mainly in fragrances, its versatile properties indicate significant untapped potential in other industries. For instance, vetiver oil shows promise as a natural preservative and anti-microbial agent. Lab studies found it inhibited the growth of various fungi and bacteria at low concentrations without toxic effects. This trait suggests exploring vetiver oil as a possible alternative to chemical preservatives in cosmetics, personal care products, and even pharmaceuticals. Similarly, vetiver's anti-inflammatory nature and skin-soothing compounds indicate it may function well in dermatological formulations.

Vetiver extract's ability to stabilize clays and soils also points to applications beyond agriculture, such as construction material additives. Its fixative properties could allow vetiver oil to replace petrochemical constituents in coatings, sealants, caulks, and other building materials.
