Achieving a beautiful seamless finish to our planters is both the most difficult and most time consuming part of the manufacturing process. It is what separates our planters from our competition so it is arguably the most critical.

This part of the manufacturing process is not automated and does not rely on technology but the skill of the tradesmen and their many years of experience.
We break the process into 3 levels. Firstly grinding which removes the excess metal from the welding process. This uses a course grinding disc that is very abrasive and high speed.
Secondly, the planter is re-ground with a lighter grit which is slightly less abrasive and slightly slower.
Lastly, the planter is polished using a low speed and low grit that gives the final finish and provides a key for the painting process.
Once finished, the manufacturing process is now complete. From here the planter moves into inspection.
