Whilst we make every effort to display product colours as accurately as possible, variations may occur due to screen settings, lighting, and manufacturing processes. Actual colours may differ slightly from those shown.
The product images, photos, and diagrams used may feature some inaccuracies, and actual patterns and designs may vary slightly due to changes in manufacturing processes, or other necessary adjustments.
The Hampton Bottomless Cylinder Planter is a modern and adaptable planter ring, perfect for enhancing any garden space. Its circular form can be placed on various surfaces and is commonly used to:
- Create an eye-catching arrangement with planters of different heights and sizes.
- Add elevated layers to existing flower beds.
- Form circular borders around lawns to showcase flower beds, shrubs, or trees.
- Serve as raised beds for growing vegetables.
- Feature individual or grouped planters to highlight statement trees or shrubs.
With its bottomless design, plants can establish roots directly into the soil beneath, preventing them from becoming “pot bound” and allowing access to natural moisture and nutrients for healthier growth.
FEATURES
- Made in Britain
- Comes without a base preventing plants drying up and becoming ‘pot bound’
- Simple Installation – No assembly required
- Zero maintenance – Plant it, sit back and enjoy
THE DIFFERENCES BETWEEN CORTEN STEEL AND MILD STEEL
Corten Steel
Corten Steel is a material that evolves beautifully over time, developing a rich, protective patina as it weathers. At first, it might seem like ordinary steel, but exposure to the elements quickly initiates a transformation. The surface gradually shifts to deep, earthy tones—rusty oranges and browns—that don’t just add character but also act as a shield against further corrosion. What sets Corten apart is its self-sustaining nature: the patina actually renews itself, ensuring the material continues to look good and remain strong, even in tough environments. This makes it an ideal choice where you want something that will hold up with minimal intervention, while blending seamlessly into natural or architectural settings.
Mild Steel
Mild Steel, while widely used and cost-effective, doesn’t have the same built-in resilience as Corten. It will rust and develop a patina, but the process is slower and less predictable. The bright rust tones that form on Mild Steel can be visually appealing, but without regular upkeep, that surface corrosion can deepen, gradually eating away at the material. It’s a practical steel, but it requires more attention, whether that’s through protective coatings or regular maintenance, especially if it's exposed to the elements for extended periods.
Both materials can achieve a similar weathered look, but Corten does so with much less effort and far greater longevity, making it the more dependable choice for projects where both form and function matter over time.

We offer numerous finishes for many of our products. If you are interested in any of these finishes then please get in touch 020 8450 2244.
Please note: Finishes are only applied to the top surfaces and the open apertures from the top down of our covers. This protects the visual surfaces, for aesthetic reasons and helps prevents run off.
POST-RUST TREATMENT
Our cast iron products arrive in their raw state, initially displaying a grey color. However, upon exposure to water, they gradually transform into a vibrant orange hue. Over time, this rust layer naturally diminishes, revealing a richer, chocolate brown patina.
For those who prefer a more controlled aesthetic, we offer a pre-rusting service. With this option, we supply the covers already rusted and then apply a special protective treatment post-rust. This treatment not only preserves the color but also deepens it, resulting in a darker and more visually appealing finish.
This treatment offers excellent chemical, salt, abrasion, and impact resistance.
CORTEN SEALANT
In a manner akin to our Post-Rust method, we can also implement a similar approach with our corten steel products. Corten steel, renowned for its inherent rusting qualities, can be enhanced with the application of a sealant. This sealant not only seals the rusted surface but also attains an aged chocolate brown finish. This applied topcoat sealer finish serves a dual purpose: it not only achieves a more stable patina but also halts the aging process, preventing any potential bleaching.
POWDER COATING
Powder coating is a versatile metal finishing process that allows us to achieve nearly any RAL color or shade you desire. This finish is known for its exceptional durability, making it highly resistant to scratches, chipping, wear, and fading. To check the RAL colour shade you may require, please open the colour chart: RAL Colour Chart
BAKED-ON OIL
The baked-on oil finish is a unique application that utilises recycled cooking oil as the coating material. It imparts an aged appearance to the product, creating a charmingly weathered look. As the oil naturally wears off, it facilitates a smooth and graceful transition from the initial installation to the eventual patina.
