Benefits
Planters create inviting and beautiful spaces that promote wellbeing and support local biodiversity. Adding flexibility and visual appeal to any urban environment, planters are a practical way to make spaces more vibrant and climate resilient. The inclusion of lush plants and trees can help improve air quality, reduce noise pollution and offset heat from concrete surfaces.
Fully customisable
Our planters can be custom made to any shape, size or colour and they can be designed to fit in around existing street infrastructure. Bespoke planters can also include seating.
Enhances public spaces
Bringing vibrancy and life, planters help brighten up urban areas and complement street-scapes. They create a more welcoming atmosphere in public spaces, making them more inviting to residents and visitors.
Functional traffic barriers
Planters can help protect pedestrian areas and guide foot traffic, adding safety where traffic management is required. They can also be used as attractive Low Traffic Neighbourhood (LTN) alternatives.
Supports public health
Adding planters with greenery has a positive effect on public health, through the reduction of smog, smoke, dust, CO2 and other pollutants.
