Abstract Pinus Pinaster Ait. is a softwood species indigenous of the South West of Europe, broadly spread alongside the Mediterranean Sea and present worldwide. Pinus Pinaster Ait. (ssp. Atlantica) is largely used in industrial applications including construction and buildings in the Southwest of France as it has widely grown across the whole area. However, very often, Pinus Pinaster Ait.-based product design strategies make use of properties of generic softwood species due to the lack of a proper database (or review) on the topic. This review article aims to exhaustively present the consistent scientific literature on Pinus Pinaster Ait. properties focusing on its physical, hygrical, thermal and mechanical properties. Indeed, a vast literature exists, laid out across a wide range of years and countries.
