Material Details and Maintenance Guidelines

1. Pre-Hot-Drilled and Painted Steel Sheet

The planter's monolithic structure is entirely forged from premium sheet steel. The metal undergoes a preliminary industrial hot-dip galvanizing treatment before bending, and is then finished with a thermosetting polyester powder coating. This advanced manufacturing process protects the steel and makes it immune to the corrosive action of constant humidity from soil and irrigation water.
Use and Maintenance: To maintain the beauty of the paintwork, simply clean the exterior walls regularly with a soft cloth dampened with fresh water and neutral soap. Avoid using abrasive sponges, steel wool, or aggressive chemicals containing chlorine or bleach, which could scratch the finish.

Benefits and Design

• Space-Saving Vertical Slenderness (Height 87.5 cm): With a compact width of just 21 cm and a height of nearly 90 cm, this variant leverages verticality to optimize floor space. It's the perfect solution for creating green screens and head-high dividers, even on narrow balconies or in the entrances of restaurants and hotels.
• Architectural Modularity Dedicated to Contract Use: Within the Patchwall system, this tall planter serves as the perfect junction or terminal element. It can be combined with the line's horizontal and vertical divider panels, offering an aesthetic and structural support that defines flow and privacy zones.
• Safe Static (Weight 13.2 kg): Despite its slender silhouette, the empty weight of over 13 kg ensures a stable center of gravity. Once the space is filled with soil and plants, the structure acquires excellent stability, firmly resisting gusts of wind and small accidental impacts.
• Clean Greenery Management: The watertightness of the pre-galvanized sheet metal completely isolates the internal contents, preventing unsightly moisture infiltration or soil leakage onto the outdoor flooring, keeping the outdoor area always impeccable.
