Finishes

MATERIALS & FINISHES

Two materials, nine finishes, dozens of colours.

Every Green & Grey pot starts as GRC or GRP, cast by hand in our own factory. Then it gets a finish: the texture and colour you see and touch. Here is what each one is like.

GRCGlass-reinforced concrete

Cement and fine aggregate reinforced with alkali-resistant glass fibre. It has the weight, coolness and natural, stony character of concrete, in a thinner and stronger wall.

  • Natural stone-like look and feel
  • Heavier and very stable outdoors, good for tall plants and windy spots
  • Takes every finish we make, including glazed and terrazzo

Finishes: Paint, Raw, Rough, Linen, Stone, Glazed, Lacquered, Oxidation, Terrazzo

GRPGlass-reinforced polyester

Polyester resin reinforced with glass fibre. Much lighter than concrete, so it suits roof terraces, balconies, indoor spaces and pots you may want to move.

  • Lightweight and easy to move
  • Good for roofs, balconies and upper floors
  • Not available in glazed or terrazzo

Finishes: Paint, Raw, Rough, Linen, Stone, Lacquered, Oxidation
