Product Information
Full details
The Trifibre Outdoor Planter is designed for homeowners and professional landscapers who require a heavy-duty, large-capacity vessel for trees and shrubs that remains easy to relocate. Its primary benefit lies in its durable, rotomoulded construction that balances a massive 145L capacity with a lightweight 6.3kg frame, though users should note that the unit arrives without pre-drilled drainage holes, requiring manual preparation for outdoor soil planting.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To prepare the planter for outdoor use, carefully drill drainage holes in the base using a standard power drill and a masonry bit. Ensure the pot is placed on a level surface to prevent uneven weight distribution. For interior use, ensure the surface is protected if the pot is used as a cover for existing nursery containers. To maintain the finish, simply wipe down the exterior with a damp cloth and mild soap. Avoid using abrasive scouring pads, which may mar the textured surface over time.
