MATERIALS CONCEPTION

FIBERGLASS CONCEPTION

AT ARTEPOT, ALL OUR PLANTERS ARE MADE WITH FIBERGLASS AND POLYESTER RESIN, a composite material renowned for its mechanical qualities, especially in the manufacture of boat hulls. Fiberglass is used as a structural reinforcement and combined with a polymer, the resin, which once cured creates a protective and resistant surface. These two materials are hand-moulded into specific shapes to create a variety of designs. The combination of these materials makes the planter extremely robust, while ensuring that it is relatively lightweight.

ROBUST & HIGH-PERFORMANCE PRODUCTS HIGH RESISTANCE Our planters are resistant to all weather conditions, including frost and snow. They are also UV-resistant. LIGHT WEIGHT The strength-to-weight ratio of fiberglass is one of the best on the market. Our planters are lightweight and much easier to handle than other materials. 10-YEAR GUARANTEE We have set up a control process throughout the manufacturing process to ensure the high quality of our products. We guarantee all our planters for 10 years.
