Things to consider when buying a Hampton Style Planter Box

There are several areas that we should look at, we will list these in order of importance for the purchaser.


* First thing you should consider is not price, even though it is an important element in the decision.

The first thing that should be considered is the Quality of the product, for example, there are many planter boxes on the market, some made from pallet timbers and simply nailed together, not a Quality build, and not made to last. There are others that are made over seas, where they are made from low quality timbers that are also Not made to last.


* A good quality product should be made, using proven sustainable timbers with long term durability to the harsh Australian conditions.

A good quality product should not just rely on a few nails or a couple of screws to hold it together but should be a combination of good exterior glue, nails and screws together with good joinery techniques.


* A good quality product should be finished with high quality undercoat and topcoat paints, that can handle the Australian weather. It is the paint that protects the timber from the elements. Australian made and manufactured are ideal for our conditions.


* There is always the option of PVC plastic ones, that are made mostly made in China, this leads us to another important consideration.

But as with all plastics they can deteriorate over time, when exposed to our harsh Australian conditions

*Another thing that should always be considered is. Is it made in Australia, when buying Australian made products, you are directly helping the Australian economy and creating a the future for our children and grand children.


* As stated at the start , Price is important, so take your time in the selection, ask questions and look for a product that ticks all the boxes but at the best price.

There are companies that put the customer first and sell at wholesale prices.

Seek them out and you will find yourself a good deal.


* Lastly please buy 100% AUSTRALIAN MADE and support OUR ECONOMY and not some foreign country.

It is important !
