A further set of planters create a continuous, 21 linear metre planting bed along the frontage of the building; with the planter bases being sloped to accommodate the pavement fall, from H 195mm to H 586mm at either end.
The planters were manufactured from 1.5mm thick Zintec Steel, Polyester Powder Coated to RAL 9006 [White aluminium]. IOTA’s planters were commissioned by the principal contractor, Roberston Group.
