Bioretention Planters, GFRC
Our bioretention planters are pre-built and installed on-site to collect stormwater from drain leads/downspouts. Plants and media filter water, removing organic and inorganic solids, and slowly release the water into the storm drains, reducing peak discharge rates.
We offer a range of standard sizes in both aluminum and GFRC - Glass-fiber reinforced concrete, but most bioretention projects are custom.
Features
- Pre-built in lightweight GFRC
- Made-to-order to meet needs and volume requirements
- Includes FEA (Finite Element Analysis) for structural integrity
- Includes plumbing: overflow drain and easy access clean-out
- Planters fully waterproofed

Product Options
Tournesol’s products are made-to-order. To easily add features to our planters, check our menu of standard options. Note that not all options are available for all products; we also have capabilities beyond the listed options. For something off-menu, speak to a Tournesol Advisor.
Change in Dimension / Angled Length Modification
Don’t see the size you’re looking for? Many of our planters can be ordered with a change in one dimension as a standard option.
Modifications to more than one dimension are available but outside of standard options. Speak to a Tournesol Advisor about specifying unique sizes for your project.
Scoops
Square and rectangular planters can be connected end-to-end to create linear runs. “Scoops” lower adjacent planter walls allowing them to hide beneath the soil surface, creating a continuous planting along the top. Connector kits to gang planters together are available.
Unique Scoops such as those placed to create t-shapes or corners are available but outside of standard options. Speak to a Tournesol Advisor about specifying unique scoops for your project.
