Htpot
Hi-tech pot is a professional plastic planter manufacturer based in Yangzhou, China, established in 1996. As a Walmart-approved supplier with 50 million pieces annual capacity, we specialize in decorative plant pots with 3,000+ designs — including ceramic-look, stone-effect, and wood-grain finishes. Our products meet US, EU, and Canadian standards, with AQL-105D quality control, 144-hour UV testing, and 10 comprehensive lab tests.
Raised Embossed Medallion: The Crio Trough features a beautifully crafted raised medallion on the front face. Unlike printed or sticker designs that fade or peel, our medallion is molded directly into the pot during production — it is part of the pot itself. This means the detail stays crisp and consistent across every piece, whether you order 500 or 50,000. The nature-inspired motif adds a classic, decorative touch that elevates a simple trough into a statement piece.
Rectangular Trough Shape: The long, wide rectangular form is purpose-built for windowsills, balcony railings, and ledge displays. The generous 60cm length provides ample space for planting rows of herbs, mixed flowers, or succulent arrangements. The gentle inward taper from rim to base adds elegance while maintaining planting depth.
Two Garden-Ready Colors: Choose sage green for a natural, garden-fresh look that blends beautifully with foliage, or brick red for a warm, Mediterranean feel that pairs perfectly with terracotta-style settings. Both colors feature a smooth matte finish that looks premium without the weight and fragility of ceramic.
Perfect for Displays: The Crio Trough excels in spaces where round pots do not fit — windowsills, balcony rails, fence tops, and narrow ledges. Its elongated shape creates a natural garden border effect, and the embossed medallion ensures it stands out on retail shelves.

Q: What material is this planter made of?A: Polypropylene (PP) — lightweight, durable, and weather-resistant plastic with embossed medallion detail molded into the pot.
Q: Is it suitable for outdoor use?A: Yes, the material is weather-resistant and UV-stable for year-round outdoor use.
Q: Does it have drainage holes?A: Standard version does not include drainage holes. Custom drainage is available for bulk orders.
Q: How heavy is it compared to ceramic?A: Significantly lighter — approximately 70% lighter than ceramic troughs of the same size. Safe for windowsills and balcony railings.
Q: Is the medallion painted on or embossed?A: The medallion is embossed (raised relief) — it is molded into the pot during production, not painted on. This ensures the detail stays crisp and will not fade or peel over time.
Q: Can I get custom colors?A: Yes, RAL color matching is available for orders of 500+ pcs per SKU.
Q: What is the MOQ?A: 500 pcs per SKU (one model, one color).
Q: Do you offer samples?A: Yes, samples are free of charge. Shipping cost is on the buyer's side.
Q: Can it sit on a windowsill?A: Yes, the lightweight PP material makes it safe for windowsills. We recommend using a saucer or tray underneath for indoor use.
Q: What is the delivery time?A: 30-45 days for mass production. Samples can be arranged within 7-10 days.
Q: What are the best planters for windowsill herb gardens?A: Rectangular trough planters like the Crio Trough (60×30×25cm) are ideal for windowsill herb gardens. The long shape maximizes planting space along the window, and lightweight PP material is safe for sills that cannot support heavy ceramic pots.
Q: How to choose a planter for balcony railing?A: Look for a rectangular trough shape that fits the railing width. The Crio Trough at 60cm length spans most standard railing sections. Its lightweight PP construction means it will not overload the railing, and UV-stable material prevents sun fading.
Q: Are plastic trough planters as good as ceramic?A: Plastic trough planters offer several advantages over ceramic: they are 70% lighter (safe for windowsills and railings), will not crack in frost, resist UV fading, and cost significantly less. The embossed medallion detail on the Crio Trough provides the same decorative appeal as ceramic at a fraction of the weight and price.
Q: What plants grow best in rectangular trough planters?A: Herbs (basil, rosemary, thyme), trailing plants (ivy, pothos), and mixed flower arrangements (petunias, geraniums, pansies) thrive in trough planters. The 60cm Crio Trough fits 3-4 herb plants or a lush mixed arrangement of 5-6 small plants.
