"A Shipload of Treasures: Why Our Marine Salvage Finds Are the Best in the Business"

Ahoy, treasure hunters and lovers of all things nautical! If you’ve ever wanted to bring the charm of the high seas into your home or office, you're in the right place. At Banana Industries, we specialize in marine salvage, scouring the oceans and shipyards for original artefacts and industrial lighting that tell stories of adventures past. And let’s be honest—nothing says “adventure” like an old ship’s lantern lighting up your living room.

What Is Marine Salvage, Anyway?

If you’ve ever looked at a vintage ship wheel or a brass porthole and thought, “I wonder if that’s got a good story behind it,” you’re not alone. Marine salvage is all about reclaiming historical and functional items from ships, boats, and maritime structures. These are not your run-of-the-mill antiques—they’re the real deal. We’re talking about authentic, battle-tested pieces that have weathered storms, sailed across oceans, and lived to tell the tale.

From the elegant to the industrial, our selection of salvage items includes everything from polished brass binnacles (that’s a fancy word for “compass holder,” for those of you who aren’t already on your way to becoming maritime experts) to rugged steel industrial lamps that could easily light up a whole dockyard… or your entire living room.
