FAQs

Q) Will my planters arrive rusty?

A) All planters are dispatched un-rusted. The rusting process will start as soon as you place them outside.

Q) How long will the planter take to rust?

A) This is dependant on the weather, but the natural process can take anywhere between 3 and 12 months.

Q) Do the the planters have drainage holes?

A) Yes, all planters have a minimal amount of drainage holes, which allows our customers to drill more if required.

Q) Do you make custom sized planters?

A) Yes! Just let us know what size you require and we'll send you a quotation.

Q) Will the planters stain my patio?

A) This is a possibility yes, although the invisible 15mm feet raise the planter off the ground to prevent direct contact. It's certainly not a problem we ever hear about.

Q)How does delivery work?

A) Once your planters are ready to dispatch, we'll contact you to arrange a convenient date for delivery. We offer free kerbside delivery every weekday. We prefer if customers are at home to take delivery, but you can also authorise a safe place for them to be left at the front of your property.

Bespoke custom sizes with no extra lead time! Laser-cut corporate logo branding also available

Crafted from premium Corten steel, the Raby bottomless cube planter develops a distinctive rust-patina finish through natural oxidation, delivering authentic industrial aesthetics. Unlike it's sibling - the Ripley Cube Planter - the open-base design allows direct root contact with soil, minimising irrigation demands while supporting substantial shrubs and trees. Hand-finished to exacting standards, it combines durability with refined garden architecture. Pre-weathering treatments and bespoke modifications are available; contact our Sales Team to explore customisation options tailored to your landscape vision.

The beautiful patina that emerges over the maturing period offers an unrivalled contemporary aesthetic, ideal for industrial, minimalist and urban designs, but equally effective in more traditional garden settings where the natural hues of the Corten work seamlessly with planting schemes and natural building materials.  

Available in a range of sizes with full customisation available for alternate sizes and laser cutting services for corporate branding and bespoke designs. Delivered un-rusted as standard, the oxidised patina develops naturally when placed outside, or alternatively, speed this process up by upgrading to a planter which has been pre-treated with a oxidising accelerant which will rust within one to two weeks. Contemporary, fresh and long lasting; the perfect planting solution for creating modern, urban and industrial aesthetics.

A living finish

Steel that matures naturally over time

Delivered to you un-rusted, Corten steel naturally develops its rich, protective patina over 8 to 10 months. The result is a unique, warm finish that strengthens with time, maturing gracefully in your garden or outdoor space.

Superior quality steel planters made in Britain

Superior quality

Our Corten steel planters create distinctive and stylish garden features. Fabricated from 2mm or 3mm guaranteed Corten steel, these are robust planters designed to last and be enjoyed for decades. All planters are laser cut with precision and hand-finished for a premium finish.

Guaranteed Corten

Corten steel is a metal alloy made by adding copper, phosphorus, silicon, nickel and chromium to iron. When exposed to air, the material forms a protective layer of rust. This natural coating prevents further corrosion, ensuring the planters last for years. Unlike many cheap foreign imports, our steel is certified and guaranteed Corten steel.

Custom sizes

All our planters are laser cut with absolute precision, so making custom bespoke-size planters isn't a problem. We fabricate custom sizes for single planters or large commercial projects. Talk to us about your requirements and we'll provide a quotation within 24hrs.

A word from the expert

A Corten Classic

The Raby planter brings together practical design and striking visual appeal. Made from premium Corten steel, it naturally develops a beautiful weathered finish that grows more characterful over time. What makes this planter special is its open base. Your plants can root directly into the ground below, which means they'll need less frequent watering and can grow stronger, making it perfect for larger shrubs and trees. It's a thoughtful choice for gardeners who want their plants to thrive while enjoying that distinctive industrial look.
