Permeate: a perfect fusion of hard and soft landscaping

Transforming balconies, podium decks and terraces into gorgeous, high performance and hard-wearing areas has never been easier thanks to Wallbarn’s new Permeate Planter System.

This one-stop-shop solution takes projects from roof deck to attractive seating and lush planters with ease, delivering strong, safe and compliant outdoor spaces.

Permeate is ideal for schemes that demand aesthetics, durability and ease of access,” said Wallbarn Director Julian Thurbin. “All components boast Class A fire-rated materials, drainage and concealed installation for a sleek, safe and sustainable exterior environment.”

The harmonised, super flat, solution begins with Wallbarn’s MetalPad Ex pedestals and I‑Plus aluminium joists. Where planters or seating are planned, fixing-free galvanised steel trays are inserted to support the additional weight, creating a robust non-combustible sub-floor onto which hard surface finishes can be laid - for example premium porcelain decking, timber-look tiles or natural stone paving.

To finish, Wallbarn has partnered with Bespoke Metal Planters for cantilevered or floating seating elements and planters in aluminium, galvanised steel, or Cor‑Ten steel, finished with powder coatings in RAL or BS colours. Integrated drainage prevents water build-up to ensure plant health and structural integrity.

This modular approach delivers quick build times, minimal mess and future access to infrastructure beneath, for example drainage, wiring or irrigation systems.
