The Cube Planter Fibreglass delivers expansive container planting geometry (100 x 100 / 97 x 100 cm) while avoiding the excessive dead weight associated with precast concrete or stone troughs. Fabricated from reinforced marine-grade fibreglass and finished to order in our Malaga workshop, this oversized unit weighs approximately 15 kg when unplanted, enabling straightforward positioning across weight-conscious installations including rooftop gardens, upper-level balconies, and timber pool decking.
Every planter is coated to order using heavy-duty Dulux Weathershield acrylics or specialised Porter's architectural paints, providing long-term colourfastness under intense Western Australian sun. For distinctive architectural schemes, our team can apply a textured granite look or a mirror-sheen high-gloss finish on request. Browse our broader oversize planters and fibreglass collection to coordinate matching profiles.
Moulded support feet are integrated directly into the underside of the planter. This subtle raised clearance promotes free air circulation beneath the container, prevents thermal contact with hot paving, and ensures drainage holes discharge cleanly without water ponding against the base. Built for commercial and residential applications, each unit carries a structural warranty of 5 years.
Because every planter is custom-made in our Malaga workshop, we invite clients to consult directly with our staff on paint colour selections, drainage requirements, and site logistics. Contact our team to discuss custom fabrication timing and delivery across the Perth metropolitan area.
What are the documented dimensions and weight of the Fibreglass Cube Planter?
The workshop specifications record dimensions of 100 x 100 / 97 x 100 cm with an unplanted tare weight of approximately 15 kg. This provides substantial root volume while maintaining a remarkably low empty weight.
What paint systems and custom finishes are available?
Standard units are finished to order in your choice of colour using Dulux Weathershield exterior paints or specialised Porter’s finishes. Textured faux granite and high-gloss protective coatings are also available upon request.
What is the role of the moulded feet underneath the base?
The moulded feet lift the structural floor of the planter clear of the deck or paving. This prevents standing water from accumulating underneath, facilitates unhindered drainage discharge, and promotes root health through enhanced airflow.
What warranty coverage applies to this custom-made planter?
The Fibreglass Cube Planter is supported by a structural warranty of 5 years against manufacturing defects and structural breakdown.
Why is a 15 kg marine fibreglass planter advantageous for balconies and terraces?
Traditional concrete planters of this cubic scale typically weigh over 150 kg before soil is added, placing immense stress on floor joists and balcony slabs. At approximately 15 kg empty, marine fibreglass leaves structural weight allowances available for potting media and lush plant growth.
