How to Customize Our Planters for Commercial Applications

When it comes to commercial landscaping, customization is key to achieving a unique and functional space that meets your specific needs. Our planters offer a range of customizable features designed to enhance both aesthetics and practicality. Here’s how you can tailor our planters to perfectly fit your commercial projects:

Irrigation Systems

Our irrigation systems are designed to fit any planter, reducing watering frequency by delivering water directly to the plant roots. This ensures optimal hydration while minimizing water waste, making it an efficient and eco-friendly option for busy commercial spaces. By integrating an irrigation system, you can maintain lush, healthy plants with less maintenance effort, allowing your staff to focus on other tasks.

Lift Channels

Designed for large, heavy planters, our lift channels allow for safe and easy movement using pallet jacks or forklifts. This feature maintains design flexibility and maximizes efficiency during installation, maintenance, and rearrangement. With lift channels, you can easily adapt your landscape layout as needed without compromising on safety or convenience.

Matching Saucers

Prevent surface staining and water runoff with our matching saucers. These saucers are seamlessly integrated into the planter's design, offering a perfect color and finish match that enhances both functionality and aesthetics. By incorporating matching saucers, you ensure a clean, polished look while protecting surfaces from water damage.

False Bottoms

False bottoms are a smart solution for large planters, as they lighten the load by reducing the amount of soil needed. Additionally, they create a water reservoir that extends watering intervals, saving on materials and maintenance time. This innovative feature is particularly beneficial for busy commercial environments where regular maintenance might be challenging.

Drain Holes

All our planters can be equipped with drainage holes to meet your specific requirements. Proper drainage is crucial for plant health, preventing root rot and ensuring that your plants thrive. Simply let us know your preference, and we will customize the planters accordingly.

Custom Dimensions

We offer custom dimensions for all planters, allowing you to tailor the size to fit your specific space requirements. Many of our planters can be modified as a standard service. Contact us to discuss your needs, and we'll ensure your planters are the perfect fit for your project. Need further customization options? Ask us about our Modular Planter Systems.

Accessory Pockets

Our planters go beyond basic plant care with integrated compartments for lighting, audio, power, and data connections. These accessory pockets enhance the functionality of your planters, allowing for seamless integration of additional features. A compatibility chart is available for standard fixtures, and we can explore custom solutions for your specific needs.

Scoops

For seamless, continuous planting beds, our square and rectangular planters can be connected end-to-end using hidden "scoops." These notches are incorporated into the sides of the planters and hidden beneath the soil, creating a cohesive and visually appealing planting surface. This feature is ideal for creating expansive green areas without visible breaks.

Casters

Select planters from our collections can be equipped with optional recessed casters for convenient mobility. These casters are discreetly built into a reinforced, raised base, allowing for smooth rolling without affecting the planter's aesthetics. This feature is perfect for dynamic commercial spaces where flexibility and easy repositioning are necessary.

Bottom Reinforcement

For planters that need anchoring or lack ground structure support, additional base reinforcement is available. This ensures stability and prevents damage to the planter, especially when filled with soil. Bottom reinforcement is crucial for maintaining the integrity of large planters in high-traffic commercial areas.

Custom Colors

We offer 13 custom color options and finishes for our Fiberstone/GFRC products. Our Fiberglass products are available in 24 color options with 4 finish options. Additionally, we provide Armorecoat premium colors in metallic or wood finishes.

Water Sealing

Our water sealing option protects planters from moisture damage, ensuring durability and longevity. This process creates an effective barrier against moisture, preventing leaks and maintaining the structural integrity of the planter. Water sealing is particularly ideal for planters without drainage holes, offering added protection to both the planter and its surroundings.

Conclusion

Customizing our planters for commercial applications provides the flexibility to create a space that is both functional and visually stunning. From efficient irrigation systems and practical life channels to matching saucers and versatile accessory pockets, our planters can be tailored to meet your unique needs.
