Garden tub galvanized

A metal goods processor in Ahlen, Germany, manufactures this garden tub. For 90 years to date, the manufacturer’s product range has included high-quality galvanized equipment for gardening, housekeeping and professional applications. The Ahlen company is one of the few in the country still operating a plant for hot-dip galvanizing. The elaborate process, in which the handlers dip each product separately in a zinc bath, ensures a particularly proper, first-class galvanization resulting in a smooth waterproof surface.

Needless to say that the garden tub qualifies as a rain collector and a universal container (for mixing soil, for example). What’s more, you can create a mini-pond in it and have some water plants show up on your balcony or terrace. Last but not least: If you can bring yourself to prick two or three holes into the tub’s bottom for water drainage, you may find a permanent place in the garden for the tub and grow herbs or perennials in it.
