Why custom with CDM
7 benefits of custom planters
We stand behind our wide selection of standard planters, and we understand that some projects need tailored specifications.
Tailored to your liking
Made-to-order planters in the sizes, shapes and finishes your project needs, produced with the same high-quality materials CDM is internationally recognized for, using a blend of handcrafted and CAD techniques.
Get project results
Our planters feature in large landscape and commercial projects across the United States, Canada and beyond, and our design team delivers timely results for projects around the world.
Personal touch
We work closely with landscape architects and wholesale distributors, with engineers and consultants beside you at every step, to match the exact specifications of your project.
Manufactured in-house
We are the designer, the manufacturer and the distributor. No part of your project is outsourced, from initial concept through production to delivery.
Overseen by designers
Our Research and Design Team works in the same location as production, so engineers and designers follow your planters through every step to ensure strict adherence to your design.
Rigorously tested for quality
We create 3D renderings for your approval before fabricating the molds, and every planter passes several layers of quality control before packing. Production can take up to ninety days.
International shipping
We partner with leading shipping and logistics companies. Custom orders ship from our facility in Vietnam in 20’ or 40’ containers. Minimum order quantities apply.
How it works
Determine your custom planters in 5 steps
To get started, collect some information about your requirements. These five steps help us identify how we can help you.
Create a list of requirements
Every project starts with the application. All of our commercial planters are marine grade and used by interior and landscape architects indoors and outdoors, in hotels, restaurants, residential developments and even airports.
Knowing the application shapes the style, color and size of your planter, so we can deliver the right solution for your project.
Choose shapes that suit the application
Function shapes the planter. A hedge will usually need a rectangle, while a small footprint suits a tapered design or our Linear Collection.
Not sure? Browse our collection, pick a standard shape such as round or square, and we will consult on how to customize it for your brand.
Choose our colors, or apply your own
Every planter is painted with high-quality primers and commercial-grade paints, with extra layers of UV protection.
Choose from over 18 standard colors, or receive your order in our standard grey primer and apply your own topcoat later to suit your brand or client.
Determine your timeline
Whether you are creating your own collection or fulfilling a one-off project, there are important deadlines to meet. Setting a clear timeline early keeps your order running smoothly.
