Customer Q&A with Product Specialists

Is everything made of plastic?
Is everything made of plastic?
Yes, our rain barrels and garden water tanks are constructed from durable, UV-stabilized plastic. Many models, such as the Graf Vaso, Cubus, and Commercial Top Tank, are made from 100% recycled plastic, ensuring they are lightweight, weather-resistant, and long-lasting. The aesthetic appearances of stone, wicker, and vase designs are achieved through decorative molded-plastic finishes that mimic these materials rather than being made of actual stone, wicker, or wood. For instance, the Graf 87 Gallon Slim Stone Wall Tank features a grey stone decor finish on its UV-stabilized plastic body. Some barrels also include hardware like brass-threaded outlets or plastic dispensing taps. You can explore the complete selection on our Rain Barrels page. If you require the precise material breakdown for a particular model, please let us know which one you are considering, and we will confirm the details for you.

About Rain Barrels

Rain Barrels are a smart addition for any gardener looking to conserve water and create a more sustainable landscape. These ingenious containers collect rainwater from your roof, providing a free and natural water source for your plants. This is especially beneficial for those with established gardens, vegetable patches, or even just a few thirsty potted plants. When selecting the right rain barrel, consider how much space you have available for storage, as larger capacities mean less frequent refilling. You'll also want to think about how the barrel's material might influence its durability, especially in regions with significant snowfall, so paying attention to its snow load capacity is important. Similarly, understanding its wind resistance is key to ensuring it stays put. The amount of light that can pass through the material, often referred to as light transmission, can also be a factor in preventing algae growth.
