High Impact Polystyrene (HIPS) — Stress-Relieved Polypropylene (PP) — Linear Low-Density Polyethylene (PE) — Fiberglass Reinforced Plastic (Fiberglass) — Flexible PVC Sheeting (PVC)

On-structure planters can pose difficult design problems, and if not done right, real long-term costs to the owner. Planter Technology has specialized in finding creative solutions for unique planter design challenges for over 20 years.

Our expertise in container irrigation and plastic fabrication comes from designing solutions for thousands of planters, in applications both small and large. We can provide you with typical planter liner installation details, and help resolve "design challenges" before they become long-term problems for the owner.

Planter Technology offers the widest range of solutions for planter liner applications. By using a variety of manufacturing processes, we can fit a solution precisely to your application and budget. With over 150 standard liner sizes, small-volume custom capabilities, and extensive design support, we have the answers even before you’ve thought of the questions.

Planter Liner Materials and Application Guide
Liner Type	Application	Description
High Impact Polystyrene	General duty standard and custom liners for most small and medium size applications. Widest range of standard sizes, up to 72"l x 36"W x 17"D (see chart on reverse).	Unibody construction. Wall thickness typically .125-.250, depending on size and depth. Standard color is black. Painting and UV protection recommended for direct sun exposed exterior applications.
Linear Low Density Polyethylene	Used for custom large liners, and for large quantities. Makes exceptionally durable, long-term liners. Can also be used to create custom decorative planters, lightweight structural elements.	Unibody construction. Sizes up to 120"l x 48"W x 48"D. PE Liners finished to utility grade in black or gray. Not designed for decorative use. Factory design support strongly recommended.
Stress-Relieved Polypropylene	Unique sizes, shapes, and configurations in small quantities where tooling costs outstrip value of liner. Unique no longer has to mean outrageously expensive – no tooling, mold or engineering costs.	Leakproof welded construction of .250 stress-relieved polypropylene sheet. Drainage is typically installed in the field, using the drainage adapter shown on reverse.
Fiberglass Reinforced Plastic	For curved planters and planter liners, extremely large planter sizes, or decorative planters with intricate designs	Unibody spray up construction for most applications. Gel coating to provide decorative finish. Most fiberglass done on a custom basis - check with the factory prior to specifying.
Flexible PVC Sheeting	Typically used where budget constraints won't allow for a rigid liner, or where an existing container requires a membrane liner with use of the CWM Modular Container Irrigation product.	Gray 30mil PVC material is draped inside of the planter, and fastened mechanically to the side walls. Flexible PVC may be welded in the field.

 

Drainage Adapter

Installed in the field by contractor. Double-gaskets for reliability. Cover with drainage fabric to retain soil/gravel and to keep out roots. Available standard in _" and _" thread x thread configurations, and special order in larger sizes.

Standard HIPS Liner Sizer

"XX" indicates nominal length of liner. i.e. 72" PL4-XX2517 = PL4-722517 All dimensions subject to ±1/4" tolerance.
