Maintenance, care and usage of poly terrazzo planters

Poly Terrazzo and Fibreglass planters

Artificial plants: These can be inserted into polystyrene blocks placed inside planters.

Live plant and tree planting: We recommend sealing the inside of the planters with a waterproof sealer prior to planting.  Failure to do so may result in a change to the structural integrity of the planter and may void the warranty

Installation and maintenance:

The planters shall be installed on firm, even ground which is free from rubble and debris.

• Do not install on a slope
• Do not install on rocks, gravel, crushed rock, aggregate or exposed aggregate surfaces
• Sweep the surface where the planter is to be placed prior to installation
• Like all coatings, they will fade over time.  We recommend a good quality protective clear coat be applied annually to assist with preservation of the appearance of the planters
• The planters are made to withstand subtle temperature variations.  As such, sudden heating or cooling of the planters via artificial means should be avoided.  Example:  On days exceeding 30 degrees C, do not water the external surface of the planter.
• Clean planters regularly with cold water and sponge only.  Do not apply chemicals or detergents ( Black terrazzo planters are prone to fading and can be brought back to life with Vaseline applied with a dry cloth)  Do not apply Vaseline to grey or white poly terrazzo planters
• Do not attempt to move planters once there is any contents inside them, either by manual or mechanical means.  Planters should only be moved when completely empty
• Transport planters on pallets or in crates.
• Do not install planters in areas where impact is likely.
• Do not drop planters or place in areas where impact is likely
