Experience sustainability in your garden with our BANDU - a bamboo planter that exudes natural charm. To preserve its deep, beautiful brown color, a simple treatment with a protective coating once a year is all that's needed. Left untreated, the bamboo will slowly age to a soft grey, adding to the overall allure of your garden.

With a distinctive varibo pattern, our BANDU planter adds character to any outdoor area. Bamboo is a popular choice for gardens, offering a sustainable alternative to tropical hardwoods.

What is Bamboo?

Bamboo is becoming increasingly popular as an element in gardens and this is reflected in our products. It is an excellent alternative to tropical hardwood. This is because bamboo grows much faster than hardwoods and can therefore be harvested much sooner. Tropical hardwood forests take 60 to 120 years to regenerate after being felled, while bamboo takes only 4 to 6 years. The plant regrows quickly – so quickly, in fact, that it is necessary to cut it back regularly.

Advantages

  • 5-year guarantee.
  • Bamboo is a natural, sustainable, strong material with a long lifespan.
  • The standard thickness of the bamboo is 20 mm, and the rim panel is 40 mm thick.
  • The base is 90 mm high and recessed by 58 mm.
  • Unlike other woods, bamboo shrinks and swells very little.
  • If left untreated, bamboo will turn grey naturally as it ages. This colour change is caused by UV radiation.

Important Info

  • Products should be unpacked immediately upon receipt to release any moisture trapped inside the packaging. If the product is left in its packaging, it may develop patches of uneven discolouration.
  • Note: To preserve the dark brown colour of the bamboo, treat the planter with a protector immediately after placement.

Planting Advice

  • Cover the bottom of the planter with about 10 cm of hydro pellets.
  • Place a permeable anti-root membrane over the drainage material.
  • Cover the membrane with soil suitable for your chosen plants.
