Description
Planter Pot with Drip Tray, 12 cm – 5 Inches
Made in Canada, one at a time. The Planter Pot with Drip Tray, 12 cm – 5 Inches is a planter built around the plant rather than around the shelf it sits on. It is designed, engineered and manufactured by Compl3x in Canada — made when you order it, finished by hand, and inspected before it is packed.
What it is for
It works for succulents, herbs and small houseplants, indoors or on a covered balcony. The wall thickness is set to hold its shape with damp soil in it, and the base is designed so it sits flat rather than rocking.
Why people buy it
- Keeps soil contained and roots happy indoors
- Sits flat, so it will not rock on a sill or table
- Made to order in the size and colour shown, with custom runs available on request
- Pairs with a drip tray where the design includes one
- Light enough to move without disturbing the plant
How it is made
Every Planter Pot with Drip Tray, 12 cm – 5 Inches is produced in our own facility using additive manufacturing rather than being ordered in from a warehouse. That changes three things. We can hold quality consistent because nothing leaves without being looked at. We can improve a design the week we notice it could be better, instead of waiting out a mould. And we can build geometry — internal structure, continuous curves, one-piece moving parts — that injection moulding and machining simply cannot produce at this scale.
It also means we are not guessing at demand. Nothing sits in a container for six months, and nothing is over-produced to hit a minimum order quantity. If you want a variation on this piece, that is a conversation rather than a tooling bill — see our custom manufacturing services.
Finish, care and colour
Pieces ship in the colour shown unless you arrange otherwise. Clean with a dry or lightly damp cloth; skip the dishwasher, solvents and abrasive pads, and keep any printed piece out of prolonged direct sun or a hot car, which is hard on every polymer. Looked after, it will outlast the moulded version of the same thing.
Ordering, shipping and returns
Orders ship across Canada and the United States, with tracking on every parcel. Because each piece is produced to order there is a short production window before dispatch rather than same-day picking from a shelf — most orders leave within a few business days. If anything arrives damaged or not as described, contact the studio and we will make it right. Full terms are on our shipping page and returns page.
Questions
Does it have drainage?
Some designs include drainage and a tray, some are intended as a cachepot for a nursery pot. The product photographs show which. If you are unsure, ask the studio before ordering.
Can I use it outdoors?
Covered outdoor use is usually fine. Long periods of direct sun and frost will shorten the life of any printed piece, so a sheltered spot is best.
Will it stain?
Soil can mark any porous surface over time. Using a liner or nursery pot inside keeps the outside looking new.
