Care and Maintenance
Made from premium-grade powder-coated aluminium, galvanised steel, or durable corten steel, these planters are designed to bring a splash of colour and a touch of nature wherever you need it. Choose from a vibrant range of powder-coated colours, each finish made to last. But to keep them looking pristine, give them a little TLC every now and then. In most settings, a quick clean every three to four months will do the trick. If you’re placing them in more challenging spots—like coastal areas, busy event venues, or commercial environments—give them a quick wipe-down every month or two.
Cleaning is as easy as 1-2-3! Start by wiping the surface with a soft cloth and lukewarm water to lift away any dirt or salt. Next, mix a little mild, pH-neutral soap in water and gently wipe with a soapy cloth. Always keep surfaces wet while cleaning, and stick to non-abrasive sponges or cloths—no harsh chemicals or high-pressure washes, please! Finally, rinse off any soap residue with a clean, damp cloth, and you're all set.
Thinking of adding plants? Great idea! For the best results, consult a plant pro, as they can help you choose the right plants for your space and conditions. Polynova planters aren’t designed for direct planting, but if that’s your plan, let us know during purchase. We can add UV-stable powder coating and drainage holes for outdoor use, and we’ll include an internal waterproof membrane for direct planting to keep everything in perfect condition. A custom planter base to catch excess water is also available for select planters.
