Black Planters

Our planters are hand painted, piece by piece. They have two coats of paint, with a 12 hour wait period between the coats. This applies to both our Aluzinc and wooden planters, though Aluzinc uses a spray can rather than a brush to ensure the best finish.

All our aluzinc planters come fully assembled. For wooden planters, we email instructions for assembly to your email, and they are downloadable from the product page. We can also provide them to you on request, if you contact us.

Aluzinc consists of carbon steel entirely enveloped by a specially crafted alloy blend of 55% aluminum, 43.4% zinc, and 1.6% silicon. This outer layer acts as a shield, safeguarding the inner steel from environmental factors and corrosion, providing up to six times more corrosion resistance than conventional galvanized steel, a popular choice for outdoor applications. The application of this coating involves a hot-dipping process. While Aluzinc shares a similar appearance on the surface to bright, 'spangled' galvanized steel, it boasts superior strength and longevity.

Your wooden planter has been pressure treated, which is considered to be the most effective form or wood treatment. This means your planter is more durable and sturdy, and is more protected against wood rot.
