Cream Planters (RAL 9001)
RAL 9001 Cream is a softer alternative to white. It is often chosen by customers and designers who want a light planter colour without the sharper appearance of Pure White. It gives a warmer finish and can help soften a planting scheme, particularly where grasses, pale paving or natural materials are being used.

Softer Than White
Cream is useful when white feels too stark. It still keeps the overall scheme light, but it has a warmer and more relaxed feel. This makes it a good option for gardens where the planter should feel designed, but not overly crisp or clinical.
Where RAL 9001 Works Well
RAL 9001 works well with ornamental grasses, soft planting, sandstone, pale brickwork and timber. It is a colour that often appeals to interior designers and garden designers who are trying to create a gentle palette across the inside and outside of a property.
Cream Or Pure White?
The choice between RAL 9001 and RAL 9010 usually comes down to how sharp you want the finish to feel. RAL 9010 is cleaner and fresher. RAL 9001 is warmer, softer and often easier to blend into more natural planting schemes.
