Custom Planters
Planters Built for Any Project
Every design project is different. That’s why you can’t rely on a cookie-cutter approach when you’re trying to create the space you’ve envisioned. To truly bring your vision to life, every component needs to be custom made for your project parameters.
At PureModern, this is a responsibility that we take seriously. We specialize in creating custom modern planters to fit your exact specifications.
Diverse Options for Your Custom Planter
We believe you shouldn’t have to settle for anything less than perfection when it comes to the success of your project. And to support your success, we’ll work closely with you to craft custom modern planters that meet your exact requirements.
We can manufacture commercial-grade custom made planters that fit your exact specifications, timeline, and budget.
Whatever your needs and preferences, PureModern can create a modern planter that meets your criteria. We offer a wide array of customization options, including materials, shapes, and finishes. We also provide installation and irrigation accessories.
The Process to Determine What Custom Planter You Need
To determine what custom planter fits your needs, begin by gathering key details. To get your project underway, please follow these seven simple steps.
Step 1: Determine the Application of Your Custom Planters
The first thing we need to know to build the right custom planter for your needs is where and how it will be used. Our modern custom planters are suitable for both indoor and outdoor spaces. They can be used for things like verandas, entryways, and patios, as well as to separate dining spaces in restaurants, create privacy on a hotel rooftop deck, create pathways to large dinner buffets, or bring a touch of color to a pool deck.
It’s also important to consider whether you have sufficient natural light where you’re planning to place your planter, either from a nearby window or directly from the sky above.
Step 2: Pick Your Custom Planter Shape
Next, we need to confirm the shape that will best suit your needs. For example, you’ll need to consider whether you require a planter with a small footprint to maximize the surrounding space, or if you have a larger footprint to work with that requires a large custom planter.
Step 3: Select the Right Material for Your Custom Planter
At PureModern, we offer a wide variety of materials to choose from for our custom modern planters. This includes:
- Commercial-grade aluminum
- Fiberglass
- COR-TEN weathering steel
If you’re unsure which material is right for your project, we can help you pick the right one based on your project specifications.
Step 4: Choose Your Custom Planter Color
Almost all of our custom made planters can be painted. You can choose from any of our existing finishes as well as any RAL color.
Step 5: Specify Any Irrigation or Installation Needs
In addition to fabricating custom planters, we also specialize in irrigation equipment to accommodate your planter. For instance, we offer Ollie Plant Sippers, which capitalizes on a plant’s naturally capillary action of attaining water and nutrients through its roots.
This, in turn, means your plants will require 80% less water and that the holding tank will only need to be filled every six weeks. This is highly beneficial in conserving resources and saving you time and money. We also offer the EZ-Fill-Ter Bags, which are a great way to fill your planters in lieu of heavy soil or stones while still providing a water filtration system.
Step 6: Confirm Your Project Timelines
We know that our clients often operate with hard deadlines like events, restaurant openings, or corporate banquets. The fabrication time for your custom modern planter will depend on the type of material you choose, but we are an industry leader in turnaround times for custom planter orders. Custom planter orders can be completed in as little as two weeks for rush projects.

Frequently Asked Questions
Can I order product samples even though I am not ordering a product right now?
Yes!
When you order PureModern’s free samples*, you can see the color and texture**, and placing the samples in the right lighting will allow you to determine, with confidence, the correct option for you and your client.
*Planter color samples are complimentary. Fire pit swatches require a down payment that is credited upon return.
**Only our Modern Elite Planter and concrete fire pit color samples come in the same product color and texture. Our PurePots color samples come on a heavy plastic that emulates the texture of our fiberglass planters.
Do you provide custom colors? Do custom colors cost more?
Yes, and usually.
The material you have chosen will dictate the options of color available to you.
At PureModern, we spray most fiberglass planters with automotive-grade paint. We prefer using BASF for its highly resistant and durable finish. If you provide any RAL, Sherwin Williams, Benjamin Moore, or your favorite paint company color code, we will match it.
For powder-coated aluminum, we prefer TIGER Drylac® Series 38 powder coating. Color options will depend on your application, whether interior or exterior. TIGER Drylac® is VOC-free and made for industrial applications such as military equipment and communication towers.
It is also proven to be weather and UV-ray resistant. According to the manufacturer, “Based on 5-year Florida exposure, TIGER Drylac® Series 38 exhibits 5.0 (Hunter) color change and > 30% gloss retention.” Finally, TIGER Drylac® Series 38 also complies with the American Architectural Manufacturing Association’s specification AAMA 2604.
We are happy to send you a brochure showing the color options when requested.
As far as price goes, it depends on the size of the order and what color and desired finish is selected. There are certain pigments that are more expensive than others.

What is your timeline for custom planters?
In general, the timeline for custom planter fabrication depends on the material you’ve selected.
For instance, custom fiberglass planters have the longest turnaround times due to the process involved in making them. Fiberglass custom planters require the creation of a custom mold, also called a plug. Then, the fiberglass is layered into the plug before being left to set.
However, other planters take significantly less time to fabricate and can be delivered within much shorter timelines. In fact, custom powder-coated aluminum planters can be manufactured in as little as 12 working days or less. If you have questions about timelines for specific materials, get in touch with us. We’re here to answer any questions you may have.
Do you have irrigation or installation solutions?
If you require support with installing your custom planters, we can help with that as well. To learn more about which irrigation and installation solutions are right for your needs, contact us online or call us at 1-800-563-0593.
What types of materials do you offer?
The materials you incorporate into your space will impact the final product of your design. At PureModern, our planters come in a variety of materials, including:
- Powder-Coated Aluminum. These customizable, marine-grade aluminum planters look good while withstanding all types of weather conditions
- COR-TEN Steel. Ideal for outdoor spaces that need greenery with an edgy spin. Planters made from this material are naturally water and frost resistant.
- Fiberglass.These planters are lightweight, durable, and versatile. Our modern commercial-grade fiberglass planters are made to enhance both indoor and outdoor spaces.
- Custom Materials. PureModern offers a wide array of customization options, including materials, shapes, and finishes. We also provide installation and irrigation accessories.
We’ve categorized our modern planters by material to make it easy for you to find the right material for your needs. If you need help deciding which material is best for your project, contact us, and we will get you started.
How are wood-clad planters made?
Wood-clad planters are made in four steps.
First, an aluminum planter box is fabricated to fit your size specifications. Then, metal plates are welded to the outside of the planter. Once the metal plates are welded, the planter is powder-coated. And finally, wood is attached to the planter with fasteners. The fasteners are not visible on the outside of the planter.
Please see the images below to see the finished product.
Can you make precision cuts?
There are different ways of making precision cuts, depending on the available equipment.
At PureModern, we can make precision cuts for projects that require a custom trellis design. You can provide the pattern, and we can make the design. We can also add a logo to a planter and even do etching if requested.
So, if you have something in mind that you would like done to personalize your planter, please contact us and we will determine how best to meet your requirements.
