Groundline, Contour, Anco, or Contain: How to choose steel edging for your garden?

Here we will look at what the difference is between the systems we offer so you can learn the best Steel edging for your garden.  Each system solves a different problem with a different unique innovation.

Contain:

Contour free standing planters are available in three shapes—circular, square, and rectangular. Each shape comes in various sizes, listed under each product on the website. The planters have a durable steel base with drainage holes. We recommend using a geotextile liner to retain soil while allowing water to drain.

Contour planters come in Corten steel, stainless steel, and many powder-coated RAL colours. They combine both style and practicality, making them ideal for any garden or outdoor space.
