Available in grey, buff, white, black or specialist colours, with acid-etched, polished or exposed aggregate finishes, it offers refined design flexibility. Measuring 4496 × 2794 × 500 mm, this large-scale planter supports bold planting schemes and can be surface-mounted or root-fixed with drainage and liners. Archive-sealed for weather resistance and topped with optional timber seating, it blends durability with aesthetic impact for architects and contractors.
