Absolutely, you just need to select the right type of metal container. Some metal pots are prone to overheating which can damage your plants. Our collection of galvanised steel, aluminium and corten steel planters have been carefully designed to avoid this and be a great option for your plants. Aluminium containers, in particular, have the highest strength to weight ratio of the three, but whichever option you choose, the larger the better as it further helps to dissipate heat.
Although some metal plots do need lining, planters from our contemporary range do not require it as they arrive ready to plant up.
Aluminium and galvanised steel planters are highly resistant to rust and corrosion, featuring a scratch resistant coating and a coat of Iron Steel mixed with a layer of Zinc respectively. Thus you can safely place them outdoors and trust they will look beautiful for many years to come with little to no maintenance required. On the other hand, corten steel containers naturally develop a protective layer of rust that generates that sought after orange brown colour. This process takes about 4-5 months and provides long lasting protection against corrosion.
