Planters and containers for outdoor use
Innovative design sets new standards in flexibility and style.
The importance of urban greening is steadily increasing. In times of urbanization and climate change, plants in cities not only contribute to improving air quality but also promote people’s well-being. With the XXL planters made of stainless steel, green oases can be created even in densely built urban areas. Our planters for the city are ideal for parks, pedestrian zones, and squares, as they impress not only with their modern design but also with their durability and ease of maintenance.
Especially in cities, space is often limited, but trees and plants in large stainless steel tree containers create green accents without taking up valuable ground. The robust construction of our planters for public spaces makes them resistant to vandalism and weather, making them ideal for long-term use in urban environments. Urban greenery not only enhances the cityscape but also actively contributes to cooling and providing shade on hot summer days.
Create green oases in the city!
The Planter 300 from BENKERT BÄNKE is the ideal solution for sophisticated outdoor greening. It is available in rectangular and square shapes, offering you a choice between 34 standard sizes or custom dimensions tailored perfectly to your needs.
Various bases for every space
Four different base variants are available for maximum installation flexibility:
- Skid-base: For a modern, floating look and contemporary open spaces.
- Straight corner feet
: The classic, minimalist style. - Angled corner feet: For a dynamic, lightweight design.
- Platform with stepless levelling function
: Hidden height adjustment with infinitely variable leveling function ideal for installation on uneven or sloping floors.
All bases are specially designed for forklift transport, ensuring easy and safe transportation of the planters.
Our Plant Care System
Plant care made easy!
The Plant Care System is optionally available for every planter and offers a well-thought-out solution for watering and plant care, especially in urban environments. This system ensures that your plants are optimally cared for, even under changing weather conditions, while also protecting them from extreme temperatures.
Water Reservoir with Overflow System
The core of the Plantcare System is a water reservoir with an overflow system, implemented through four integrated cassettes with a height of 100 mm. These cassettes allow excess water to be collected in the lower part of the planter. This ensures that enough water remains in the reservoir without flooding the plant roots.
Water Overflow
To prevent waterlogging, the system features a water overflow that activates when the water reaches a height of 100 mm. Once the reservoir is fully filled, the excess water flows out through the overflow, ensuring a controlled water balance.
Root Fleece
Between the cassettes and the soil is a root fleece that prevents soil from entering the water reservoir. This fleece ensures that the water absorption capacity of the reservoir is maintained, providing the plants with optimal water supply.
Capillary Plant Mats in the Sidewalls
The capillary plant mats attached to the inner walls of the planter are made of high-quality rock wool. These mats are specially designed for use in plant care and store additional water. The mats also provide an insulating function, protecting the plants from heat in summer and from frost in winter.
Secure Tree Fixation for Maximum Stability
Especially in urban environments, it is important that trees and larger plants are securely anchored to withstand wind and weather. The Planter 300 offers a well-thought-out solution and can be used as a tree container: In the corners, there are four robust eyelets specifically designed for secure tree fixation. These provide additional stability, ensuring that even large trees or shrubs are securely anchored in the planter. This safety feature is indispensable, especially in urban greening, where plants in public spaces are often exposed to strong external influences.
Urban Greening: Stainless Steel Planters
Especially in cities, space is often limited, but trees and plants in large tree containers create green accents without taking up valuable ground. The robust construction of our planters for public spaces makes them resistant to vandalism and weather, making them ideal for long-term use in urban environments. Urban greenery not only improves the cityscape but also actively contributes to cooling and providing shade on hot summer days.
With the Planter 300 from BENKERT BÄNKE, you create sustainable greening solutions for cities that are both aesthetically pleasing and functional.
Weather-resistant and easy to maintain in more than 8,500 colors

Durable, Sustainable & Handmade
What is the delivery time for planters?
The delivery time for our planters is currently 4-6 weeks from the factory.
Please note our 2-week company vacation at the beginning of August when ordering.
In what colors are the planters available?
Our standard color palette includes more than 150 RAL and house colors from which you can choose free of charge.
We also offer our customers a choice of more than 8500 colors from NCS, RAL design and Pantone colors for an additional charge. You can find all colors here.
How to fix planters?
Our planters are not screwed or set in concrete. Due to the solid material stainless steel, once planted, they can not be moved by hand. A forklift or similar is required in any case to move the filled planters, as they weigh several hundred kilos.
By the way: Removable inserts for alternate planting are optionally available.
What is important when choosing the right street furniture planters?
When choosing the right planters for street furniture, there are several factors to consider. One of the most important is the material to withstand the demands of the urban environment. Stainless steel is extremely robust, durable and resistant to frost and heat.
The size also plays a major role. It is important that the needs of different locations and also plant species can be taken into account, so that for each green plant can be selected the appropriate planter. After all, each planting must have enough space for root growth and at the same time, however, the planter must not appear oversized.
An effective drainage system is critical to prevent waterlogging and root rot. The planters have holes in the bottom to allow excess water to drain away. All of our planters can be optionally equipped with a build-up system and water level gauge to ensure optimal care for plants in the city
In urban areas, it is important that planters are safe and stable to prevent vandalism or accidental damage. They should have a high weight to prevent tipping over.
Depending on the location and environment, the requirements for care and maintenance of planters may vary. Some materials require regular cleaning or re-treatment, while our planters are made of stainless steel and thus require virtually no maintenance.
When selecting street furniture, including planters, sustainability is also very important. It is advisable to choose materials that are environmentally friendly, can be recycled and come from sustainable sources. We meet these requirements because our materials consist of up to 80% recycled raw materials and are 100% recyclable at the end of their decades of use.
How big does an outdoor street furniture planter need to be?
The size of an outdoor planter can vary depending on the specific requirements and context of cities and municipalities, outdoor facilities, parks and green spaces. According to the following factors, you should determine the size of the required planters:
The size of the planter depends on the type of plants that will be placed in it. Smaller plants such as flowers or shrubs require smaller planters, while larger trees or large-sized plants require larger planters to provide adequate space for their root growth.
The available space in cities, municipalities, outdoor areas, parks and green areas of commercial buildings is an important factor in determining the size of planters. They should be proportional to the surrounding space and provide enough room so as not to be too overwhelming or restrict through traffic.
The size of the planters should also match the aesthetic appearance of the environment. It is important that they are harmoniously integrated into the overall image of the urban space and contribute to its beautification.
There is no set size that applies to all situations, as this depends on the specific requirements and circumstances. It is advisable to carefully consider individual plant needs, available space and aesthetic requirements when determining the size of outdoor planters.
In our assortment you will find a total of more than 30 different sizes of planters in more than 8500 colors – and certainly the right one for your building project.
What planters are frost-resistant?
Stainless steel is absolutely robust and durable and therefore ideally suited for use in outdoor planters. Both frost and intense heat can not harm this material. This means that planters can remain outdoors in all weathers and do not need to be dismantled and stored. In addition, stainless steel planters require virtually no maintenance. Planters are powder coated, which also contributes to the durability of the product, and also makes it difficult to apply stickers, as they hold much worse than on smooth surfaces.
Up to what temperature are street furniture planters frost resistant?
Absolute weather resistance is a must for planters in public spaces. Especially in winter with snow and frost, a lot is demanded of the materials. Since our planters are made entirely of stainless steel, they can easily withstand high sub-zero temperatures without the material weakening.
Planters made of wood or concrete are less robust and sometimes even have to be put away in winter to prevent the materials from freezing or even cracking.
Our stainless steel planters can remain outside year-round and do not require frost-proof storage.
