Equipment and use

The Otium collection is resistant to winter temperatures. Our pots are double-walled: the air layer between both walls protects your plant against frost and heat. Our pots are unbreakable and colourfast.

You can easily clean our Otium pots with a soft cloth and a little soap. If you regularly put our white pots in direct sunlight, they will keep their beautiful white colour better.

Our pots are made from virgin polyethylene and recycled cork.
