Flower planter KRUPS KARO 300x300x300 concrete recycled – cream

KRUPS KARO 300x300x300 concrete recycled – cream is a square planter made from recycled concrete, designed for both indoor and outdoor use. With external dimensions of 300 x 300 x 300 mm, this compact planter provides a stable, weather-resistant container for pots, shrubs and ornamental plants while reflecting an eco-conscious material choice. The cream colour integrates easily into neutral, modern and traditional settings and the solid concrete build offers long-term physical durability for terraces, balconies, gardens and commercial displays.

Advantages

The recycled concrete construction reduces demand for virgin raw materials and provides a robust structure that resists wind and minor impacts. Its square shape optimises space usage and makes it simple to align multiple planters for consistent visual arrangements. The cream finish gives a neutral background that highlights plant foliage and flowers without dominating the composition, while the compact dimensions make it suitable for small outdoor areas or interior corners.

Suitable for

• Small shrubs and decorative bushes
• Indoor houseplants and container-grown perennials
• Balcony and terrace displays where space is limited
• Commercial displays, entrances and staging areas
• Urban gardens and patio arrangements

When it may not be suitable

This planter’s internal volume is limited by its compact 300 mm cube dimensions, so it may not be suitable for large trees or deep-rooted plants that require substantial soil depth. Although concrete is durable, the planter is relatively heavy compared with plastic alternatives, which can make frequent relocation difficult. If frost drainage considerations are critical in your climate, additional drainage or lifting from direct ground contact may be required to protect both planter and plants in freezing conditions.

Key specifications

• External dimensions: 300 x 300 x 300 mm
• Material: recycled concrete
• Colour: cream
• Shape: square
• Intended use: indoor and outdoor
• Finish: matte/stone texture (concrete surface)

How to use

Place the planter on a level surface appropriate for its weight. For outdoor use, ensure the base has adequate drainage or add a layer of coarse gravel to prevent waterlogging; consider elevating the planter slightly with feet or pads to avoid direct contact with frost-prone ground. Fill with a suitable potting mix for the chosen plants, leaving allowance for root growth. When moving the planter, lift with appropriate help or equipment to avoid damage or injury due to its weight. For indoor use, protect flooring with pads beneath the planter to prevent surface abrasion or moisture marks.

What to consider before purchase

• Confirm available space and measure doorways or access points for delivery and placement
• Consider plant root depth and choose species suitable for a 300 mm cube container
• Account for the planter’s weight when filled with soil and plants
• Decide whether additional drainage holes or elevation are needed for your climate

Usage recommendations

Use well-draining potting mix and place gravel at the base for outdoor installation; group multiple KRUPS KARO planters to create a cohesive layout on terraces or along pathways. For winter protection, empty and store indoors if moving is feasible, or lift off the ground and insulate the base to reduce freeze-thaw stress.
