AKRI®, the other way to create large planter beds
Furnitubes is launching AKRI®, a raised wall planter enabling large planting beds to be designed as part of a scheme.
Constructed from recycled steel, AKRI® planters are a sustainable and cost effective solution compared with traditional masonry walls or smaller sit-on top planters. Plus they offer designers more creative options in terms of shapes, curves and finishes.
Steel wall planters
AKRI® wall planters are crafted from both straight and curved panels, typically 2m long and with heights up to 1.1m, which allows for a variety of designs to suit most outdoor areas, including podiums, roof terraces, and general public spaces. They include optional add-on seating in the form of benches, with or without backrests - constructed of timber slats on a steel frame. These benches can be pre- or retro-fitted.
AKRI® wall planters are available in two ranges: AKRI300 and AKRI600, in a range of heights from 300mm to 1100mm.
The panels are light-weight for ease of handling and therefore well suited to roof-tops and podiums.
