Absolutely, you can get a natural look from our planter boxes. Unlike mass‑produced planters that come pre‑finished with heavy varnish or paint, our factory offers a dedicated untreated wood line. This means you receive a planter made from raw, kiln‑dried timber—typically cedar or pine—with no stains, sealants, or chemical additives applied.
Why choose untreated?
- Full control over the finish. You decide the stain color, the shield, or even leave it bare for a weathered gray patina.
- Better wood absorption. Raw wood takes stain evenly and deeply, giving a richer, more natural result than a pre‑stained product.
- Safer for edibles. If you’re growing vegetables or herbs, untreated wood avoids leaching synthetic finish chemicals into your soil.
Our factory sanding leaves the surface smooth to the touch but opens the grain perfectly for your chosen treatment. Before staining, just lightly sand any edges, wipe off dust, and apply a high‑quality exterior wood stain or natural oil like tung or linseed. For extra durability in wet climates, add a water‑repellent sealer after your stain dries.
We source our untreated boards from FSC‑certified suppliers, and each planter is assembled with stainless steel screws—so you’re not fighting rust later. If you want a truly natural aesthetic that you make your own, simply request the “raw finish” option when ordering. No hidden coatings, no surprise plastics—just honest wood that’s ready for your touch.
So yes, our factory can absolutely deliver an untreated planter box. You’ll feel the grain, smell the fresh wood, and have the satisfaction of finishing it yourself—exactly the natural look you’re after.
