Sigma Planters provided an array of lightweight concrete planters from their Florence collection...
Florence Lightweight Concrete
A mid-grey, lightly weathered concrete finish, at a fraction of the weight of cast concrete.
Florence is our concrete-look range for commercial and high-end residential landscapes: shopping centre forecourts, car park edges, podium decks and residential terraces. The finish looks like cast concrete, while a glass-fibre-reinforced composite body keeps a 1000mm trough to 12.5kg, so planters can be positioned by hand, lifted onto balconies and relocated when a layout changes.
- Material: lightweight concrete-look fibreglass composite
- Finish: mid-grey, lightly weathered
- Shapes: troughs, tall troughs, cubes, squares and rounds.

What are Florence planters made from
Florence planters are cast from a glass-fibre-reinforced composite of polyester resin and natural stone (sandstone and stone powder), finished to replicate concrete. The result has the appearance of cast concrete at a fraction of the weight, and it flexes slightly under load rather than cracking like a solid concrete pot.
Product Specifications:
Unsaturated polyester resin: 55%
Sand stone: 20%
Powder stone: 15%
Talc powder: 5%
Fiber glass: 4%
Colour paint: 1%
Finish: Smooth pitted texture to mimic concrete.
Colours: Grey Cement
Suitability: Residential and light commercial.
Drainage: Base has 3mm hidden feet to assist drainage. Drainage holes of 15-30mm – can be blocked for indoor use.
Guarantee: 3 year warranty for structural defects; fading and hairline cracks are to be expected and are not covered.

Florence FAQs
Is Florence real concrete?
No. Florence is a lightweight composite finished to look like concrete. A Florence Trough 1000 weighs 12.5kg empty; the same planter in cast concrete would be several times heavier.
Can Florence planters be used indoors?
Yes. Florence suits indoor and outdoor use. To plug the drainage holes for indoor use, we recommend Selleys Knead It Aqua
Are Florence planters suitable for public spaces?
Yes. Florence is rated for residential and light commercial use, and has been used at shopping centres and commercial complexes. See the projects above.
Can I see the finish before I order?
Yes. You can order samples so you can compare the finish against your site materials.
