Custom Manufacture
IOTA offers a custom manufacture service,
supplying bespoke commercial planters in natural stone, stone composite, GRP / fibreglass and GRC. Planters can be made to whatever specification the brief requires – whether for protected interiors, or for the most challenging of exterior spaces.This service is not limited to planters,
and can include other items of street furniture (such as chairs, benches etc.), in addition to art in stainless steel. Custom manufacture is possible in all of IOTA’s product ranges, although in Boulevard options are restricted due to high mould development costs (Boulevard, however, can be custom-coloured to any RAL reference). Custom orders can be delivered worldwide on an all-inclusive Delivered Duty Paid basis; and can often be shipped direct from factory, at extremely competitive prices.The Image Gallery
shows a selection of projects where custom designs have been commissioned from IOTA, to give a general idea of the possibilities available. To discuss your specific custom manufacture brief in detail, please contact Mark Chessell via E: mark@iotagarden.com T: 01934 522617 (International [+44] 1934 522617).Image 1
