Matte Grey Tower | Fibreglass Planter

As imposing as the ‘black tower’ planter might sound, the glossy finish on this planter makes it extremely modern and appealing. These planters were initially designed with the intention of supplying large commercial projects, however we are now offering these to retail customers as well. As they were designed for these larger developments, like luxury hotels and office complexes, they are made to a high standard of quality than the kind of planters you might find at you local garden centre. These are professional supplies for developers, made from light weight fibreglass, a smart material. Unlike traditional manufacturing materials like stone/concrete or heavy metals such as lead, fibreglass is much lighter and even some of our largest planters can be moved or carried by a single person. This makes them quick and easy to install, or to reposition at a later date. Please bear in mind however, that the majority of the weight of these planters comes from the soil that fills them. So even though they are light weight when they are empty, as soon as the are planted up, they can become relatively immovable. This is an advantage as it means they are unlikely to fall over or to be shifted by even the strongest winds. These fibreglass tower planters are not only available in glossy black, but in matte or glossy, black white and grey variants. These have all been made with what we call ‘design neutrality’ in mind. That means that we have specifically picked colours that are unlikely to clash with anything else you may have place or installed in your garden or outdoor space. In addition to this, they do not come finished with any patterns that could conflict, rather, they are finished in block colours for absolute flexibility. In terms of placement, these planters are ideal for flanking door ways or garden paths Alternatively, in larger developments, place them at intervals along walls to add structure, depth and height. When planted up with tall shrubs like lollipop bay trees, they form make-shift, semi natural columns. In the modern day, creating the right atmosphere for business or relaxation depends heavily on building a clean, natural and aesthetically pleasing environment.

Matte black is probably the most subtle and least intrusive finish we have in our entire range. As such this matte black fibreglass barrier planter is probably the item we sell with more utility than any other. Trough planters are often meaningfully used with tall plants like bamboo to create natural barriers in their gardens or outdoor spaces. This ‘barrier’ or divider planter is a trough that has been made taller explicitly for this purpose. Double the height of a normal trough, it is far easier and much faster to create a natural wall than it would be with your average trough. The reality of modern living is that if we find ourselves in homes that have any outdoor space, they are far from private and tranquil. We wouldn’t tolerate living in houses with only glass walls to separate us from our neighbours, so why do we tolerate it in our gardens? Further to this, unlike a wall or a fence, a garden planter is a non-permanent and non-offensive way of creating a screen. However, these ‘natural walls’ are not only suited to ensuring your privacy but the can also be used elsewhere in your garden to create structure or sustain meaningful divisions. This is particularly important in very large gardens or garden spaces that are oddly wide or elongated. In these gardens, by installing natural walls or screen, it divides the space you have available to you into distinct outdoor rooms that you can then style and levy your designs upon. The matte black finish is perhaps the most suitable to creating a natural barrier, as it blends the most subtly with the greenery or foliage of the natural world around it. Fibreglass as a material has proved to be a particularly useful material to make garden planters from in comparison with more traditional manufacturing materials. When compared to materials like lead or terracotta (Two extremely popular materials to build planters from in epochs passed), the advantages of fibreglass are unquestionable. Far easier to carry than lead and more robust and durable than terracotta. Fibreglass can also be made to accurately imitate any other materials. So making planters of faux lead or faux terracotta is a more practical and often far cheaper option than purchasing planters made of traditional materials. These planters however, are not made to imitate anything at all and really show off what can be done with fibreglass made to reflect its own merits. Resistant to the adverse effects of the weather, while being ultra violet resistant (prevents bleaching) – fibreglass is a smart material in its own right. The most versatile of the finishes we have, this Matte Black Fibreglass Barrier Planter would really be at home in any combination of contemporary or traditional designs. While the white or glossy finishes might be more at odds with traditional designs or architectural installments, matte black should seamlessly blend with any features you have already in place, whether wood, steel or stone. Given that we have had requests in the past for planters like this for use on larger developments, these planters have been constructed to a commercial standard. For this reason they are suitable for use in public environs like large scale hotel, office or luxury residential developments.
