How we work
Every Pot Shack pot is hand-cast on site in Centurion, cured and finished using 97% solar electricity. Local, tested, repeatable.
Every pot is moulded and cured on site at our Centurion yard, by the team that has been doing this since 1996.
Our Centurion yard runs on 97% solar electricity, the same density, same life, lower footprint.
Designed for South African summers and Highveld winters. Frost-safe, sun-safe, downpour-safe.
Flat-rate to Gauteng, Western Cape and KZN on our own vehicles, or collect free from the yard.
Concrete furniture
Chairs, tables, benches and a pool lounger, hand-cast to live outdoors year round. No rust, no rot, nothing to carry in for winter, and heavy enough that the wind leaves it exactly where you put it.
