Naval stores industry information


1912 postcard

The naval stores industry produces and markets products derived from the oleoresin of pine trees, including rosin, tall oil, pine oil, and turpentine. It does this by collecting and processing organic forest products refined from slash pine and longleaf pine trees (genus Pinus). The naval stores industry was associated with the maintenance of the wooden ships and sailing tackle of pre-20th century navies, which were caulked and waterproofed using the pitch (a product made with tar) of the pine tree.[1]

Today these pine compounds are used to manufacture soap, paint, varnish, shoe polish, lubricants, linoleum, and roofing materials.[2]
