These versatile planters bring colour to any space! They are perfect for balconies, fences, rooftops, patios, or as decorative garden edging. No need to worry about weeding or digging—just add plants, and you’re set!

The 0.7mm gauge aluminium is lightweight and strong, yet very soft, so some natural scratching and marks from the milling process may occur, giving each planter a unique character. These minor imperfections add charm and authenticity, as each piece is handmade from repurposed materials.

For a high-shine finish, you can polish your planter with a soft cloth (I recommend Minky), and a drop of baby oil or WD40 works wonders.

Optional Customisation:

• Detachable black rubber safety edge for the top rim (easy to fit with super glue or naturally over time with sun exposure).
• Hand-riveted rear for extra sturdiness.

Drainage:

• The planter’s base is designed with built-in drainage. The bottom edges are loose on three sides, ensuring water flows freely. If you need additional drainage holes, simply use a standard household drill and file the edges for smoothness.

Care & Tips:

• Lining the planter is recommended to extend its life—consider using pond liner or even tin foil.
• Layer the bottom with gardeners’ grit, moss, or leaves before adding soil for the best planting results.

Eco-Friendly Craftsmanship: Every planter is crafted using industrial roofing materials that would otherwise be discarded, so they are not only unique but eco-conscious. The slight imperfections are a testament to their origin and add to their charm.
