Why Use a Composite Planter Insert?

A composite planter liner is essential when your outer planter is made from materials that can’t retain water — such as timber, MDF, sheet metal or decorative joinery. These liners act as a protective, watertight barrier, safeguarding both the structure and the surrounding space from leaks, rot, corrosion or swelling.

Common applications include:

  • Joinery-built indoor and outdoor planters
  • Timber seating with integrated planting
  • High-end cabinet furniture for offices or hotels
  • Large raised bed units and garden displays
  • Commercial installations in public or urban spaces

A Smarter Alternative to Plastic Inserts

If you’re looking for plastic inserts for planters, consider the advanced alternative—a composite planter liner from Sui Generis. While plastic inserts may seem like a quick fix, composite materials offer superior performance, longevity, and design flexibility that simply outclass standard plastic options. Unlike plastic, composites won’t crack, warp or leak—making them ideal for high-end, custom builds.

  • Made to Measure – Precision-crafted for a perfect fit
  • Watertight & Durable – No leaks, no compromise
  • Built to Last – Resistant to impact, UV, and weather
  • Eco-Conscious – Sustainable, low-maintenance design
