For more than 40 years, Carlisle's Heart Pine has come from a 30,000-acre plantation in Alabama, owned and operated by the Crosby family. The wood is prized for its rich color and durability.

This is the wood that spawned the American Industrial Revolution. Both tremendously strong and widely available in much of the Southeast, Southern Longleaf or "Heart" Pine was the building material of choice for burgeoning factories, bridges and even ship masts. It was also used extensively for flooring and can be seen today in everything form the most elegant southern mansions to the simplest of "Cracker" house, and cherished for its rich amber and pumpkin hues and contrasting grains.
