Why Aluminium?
Aluminium is very lightweight. These aluminium planters can be left outside all year round without damage, even in freezing temperatures. That means that you can enjoy this planter for many years to come.
Once constructed, the planter is given several finishing treatments. The metal is roughened to allow better adhesion of the powder coating. This powder coating is available in a variety of colours and is applied with a strong adhesive primer. Finally, the planter is finished with a hard topcoat. This ensures that the CARREZ aluminium planter is scratch resistant.
Specification
- 5-year guarantee.
- Aluminium planters are very robust, hard-wearing, resistant to corrosion and durable.
- The aluminium has a thickness of 3 mm. It can also be supplied in other thicknesses.
- The planter has hidden feet and drainage holes. This allows it to float a little above the ground (15 mm) and provides optimal drainage.
- Scratch-resistant topcoat.
- The planter can be customised.
- Standard RAL colours are RAL 7016, RAL 7021, RAL 9005 and RAL 9016. There is a start-up charge for other colours.
- We also supply professional maintenance products.
Important Information
- Products should be unpacked immediately upon receipt to release any moisture trapped inside the packaging. This moisture can cause stains that are difficult to remove.
- Keep the drainage holes clear to allow excess water to run off.
- The guarantee expires if you drill or grind in a way that is not specified.
- Clean annually by hosing dirt from the planter with clean tap water, followed by cleaning with detergent. Do not use a pressure washer and/or scouring pad for this purpose. This damages the coating.
Planting Advice
- Insert the overflow pipes into the drainage holes prepared for them.
- Fill the planter with about 10 cm of drainage material.
- Place a permeable anti-root membrane over the drainage material.
- Cover the membrane with soil suitable for your chosen plants.
- Keep the drainage holes clear so that excess water can run off.
