Plant Pot / Planter / Raised Garden Bed Made In-House from 2 mm Galvanized Steel
Product information
Galvanized Steel Planter / Flower Pot / Custom Raised Garden Bed
Configure your hot-dip galvanized steel planter, flower pot or custom-made raised garden bed exactly according to your requirements. Our planters are manufactured from high-quality steel and subsequently hot-dip galvanized. The continuous zinc coating provides long-lasting corrosion protection and makes the material exceptionally resistant to weather conditions. Thanks to the robust 2 mm material thickness, these planters are ideal for durable applications in both private and commercial outdoor environments.
Your advantages at a glance
✔ Permanent corrosion protection through hot-dip galvanizing
✔ Extremely robust and dimensionally stable
✔ Weather-resistant and highly durable
✔ Ideal for large planters and raised garden beds
✔ Low maintenance and exceptionally hard-wearing
Hot-dip galvanized steel planters impress with their outstanding stability and long service life. They are perfectly suited for gardens, patios, public spaces, commercial properties and professional landscaping projects.
- Material: Hot-dip galvanized steel
- Material thickness: 2 mm
- Manufacturing tolerances: ±10 mm
- Available with or without a base
- Note: The maximum possible dimensions depend on the structural requirements. For larger planters, we recommend selecting additional reinforcements.
Optional insert tray
Upon request, your planter can be supplied with a perfectly fitting insert tray. This means the planter does not need to be filled completely to the bottom with soil. It saves potting soil, reduces the overall weight and makes transportation and future relocation much easier.
The insert tray is manufactured with drainage holes as standard, ensuring excess water drains away reliably and preventing waterlogging.
Before filling the insert tray with soil, we recommend lining it with a suitable plant fleece. This keeps the soil inside the tray while allowing excess water to drain away freely.
Please note that the corners of the insert tray are intentionally left unwelded. When filled with soil, the tray can expand slightly outwards, allowing it to fit perfectly against the planter.
Construction notes
Large planters are subjected to considerable loads due to the weight of soil and water. Therefore, we recommend selecting the option of additional reinforcement for larger dimensions. Internal cross braces increase stability and significantly reduce bulging of the side walls.
Please note that if reinforcement is selected, the weld spots of the internal cross braces may be slightly visible on the outside of the planter. This is necessary for manufacturing reasons and does not constitute a quality defect.
For additional plant protection, we recommend lining the inside walls of the planter with Styrodur insulation boards (XPS). These provide improved thermal insulation and protect the root zone from excessive summer heat and winter frost.
Maintenance
Hot-dip galvanized planters are extremely easy to maintain. Cleaning with clean water or a mild detergent is generally sufficient. Aggressive acids or highly alkaline cleaners should be avoided, as they may damage the zinc coating. Minor scratches or damage to the galvanized surface can be repaired, if required, using a suitable zinc spray.
Surface finish
Hot-dip galvanized surfaces naturally display typical characteristics such as zinc flowers (spangle), zinc runs, slight unevenness or colour variations. These are inherent to the hot-dip galvanizing process and are characteristic of this manufacturing method. They do not constitute defects in quality and are not grounds for complaint.
Applications
Our hot-dip galvanized steel planters, flower pots and custom-made raised garden beds are ideal for gardens, patios, public spaces, parks, commercial properties and professional landscaping projects. Thanks to their outstanding stability and long-lasting corrosion protection, they are particularly suitable for large planting installations and demanding outdoor environments.
