Privacy Planters: An Overview

There are lots of ways we can use plants to give more privacy in your commercial building. As commercial plant experts, we commonly use the likes of hedge screening panels, tall plants, fast growing plants or climbing plants for the job.

We can create low-maintenance privacy screening through a considered selection of live plants or by using artificial plants. Using greenery to establish privacy has lots of extra benefits too, including enhancing the aesthetic appeal of your building. Depending on the plant variety, the plants can even work to improve the room acoustics and purify the air.

We most commonly install privacy planters in offices, but they work equally well in customer-facing venues such as restaurants, hotels and spas. As part of our bespoke design services, we can select the best plant varieties based on your commercial environment and overall preferences.

It’s good to know our privacy plant screens can be customised to thrive indoors or outdoors!

Planter Screening Usage Ideas

Oasis Plants can install privacy screens anywhere within your commercial premises, including interior areas or outside.

Since every commercial building requires privacy for different reasons, we’re fully flexible to your needs as a business. For instance, the need to gain privacy in key areas of your office, or make your hospitality venue more inviting for alfresco dining.

The following are some ideas based on the privacy screening projects we’ve been involved in so far across the UK. This includes cities such as Birmingham, Edinburgh, Manchester, Liverpool, Newcastle, London, Sheffield and Warrington.

However, feel free to reach out to us if you have any other ideas you’d like us to explore, wherever your business happens to be based!

Office Privacy Screens

Our privacy plant screens can create visual or audible privacy around key areas of your office building. For instance, around desks, reception areas, meeting rooms or breakout areas. Office privacy screens also work well for zoning purposes, particularly compared with traditional partitions or cubicles. Adding a splash of greenery also enhances the aesthetics of your office and can even have various positive impacts on employee wellbeing.

Privacy Screens For Outdoor Areas

In hospitality venues such as restaurants, cafes, pubs and bars, maximising every inch of space is essential. Patios, terraces or decks can be made far more appealing by adding privacy screening using plants. We can also custom make your planters so that they fit your venue branding. The choice of plants can screen patrons from passing foot or road traffic, plus prying eyes from nearby buildings. Privacy screens for hospitality venues can also double up as terrace sectioning.

Events & Exhibitions

During an event, you may wish to create privacy around meeting areas, backstage areas or lounges. Privacy screening can also add aesthetic appeal to your stand or exhibition. Since we provide plant rental, we can design, install your privacy planters as needed. The choice of plants can also be based on the theme or objective of your event.

VIP Areas

Whether you want your customers to feel like VIPs or will be inviting actual celebrities into your venue, planters with screens can create privacy exactly where it’s needed. Privacy planters can create areas that feel more secluded around your premises. This can work to encourage guests to stay longer, especially if they are given an exclusive area to enjoy away from the main hustle and bustle of your venue. Privacy plant screens are fully flexible and also cost-effective.

Privacy Plant Screens FAQs

We’ve answered some of the most common questions about our screening planters for businesses below.

For anything else, please drop our team a message. You can also learn more about Oasis Plants by reading our blog or following us on LinkedIn, Instagram or Pinterest.

Which Plants Are Best For Privacy Screening?

In truth, we could be here for hours describing the vast array of plants we can use for your privacy plant screen!

As you might expect, this mostly includes plants that will offer dense leaves or tall growth to be able to physically block the view, as well as plants that can reduce the transfer of noise between the different zones of your building. To provide a starting point, we recommend exploring varieties such as Portuguese Laurel, Areca Palm or Elaeagnus Ebbingei.

Also, we recommend trailing or climbing plants that can be added to trellis or screening materials, such as Clematis, Wisteria or Jasmine. The benefits of climbing plants are that you can also benefit from luscious aromas and beautiful visual blooms, all while also gaining that much-needed privacy.

Can You Use Bamboo Plants as Privacy Screens?

Yes, bamboo is a very popular plant choice for privacy screens. In particular, bamboo offers a lot of properties that can offer protection from prying eyes, such as being tall, fast-growing and having dense foliage.

Of course, a slight caveat here is that bamboo can also be invasive, which is why we’d recommend consulting our experts to determine if bamboo is a good fit for your project, plus if it’s possible to mitigate any potential issues.

When used in a trough planter, bamboo can work well to provide privacy around patios, courtyards or other types of outdoor seating areas. Since we make, install and maintain our plant screens, we can certainly advise you further on all things bamboo!

How Do Privacy Plant Screens Enhance Business Premises?

Privacy screens can achieve visual privacy through the use of dense foliage or tall plants. You might want to keep prying eyes away in a number of scenarios. For example, in hospitality environments, privacy screening can make outdoor areas feel more welcoming to spend time in, especially if they are close to passing traffic or are overlooked by nearby buildings.

Plants can also enhance privacy in lots of other ways. While not designed as a soundproofing measure, they can be used in areas of your commercial space where you want a little more seclusion while holding conversations.

We can also create bespoke screens for plants so that you can gain privacy in your building in a way that still feels on brand. For instance, crafting planters which match your branding colours or that incorporate your logo.

Have a specific privacy requirement in mind? When you work with us, we’ll come up with tailored solutions for your privacy plant screens based on your commercial building type, industry and anything else you’d like us to consider.

Are Plant Screens Suitable For Open Plan Office Environments?

Plant screens are actually perfect for open plan offices, especially when there is a lot of activity, people and ultimately noise to contend with.

There are lots of usage ideas to explore with office plant screens. For instance, they can establish focus areas, collaborative spaces, meeting pods or lounges. With so many plant sizes and varieties, plus physical planter types to choose from, our creative experts can land on the most intuitive ideas to suit your office.

Can Plant Screens Be Used as Natural Room Dividers in Workspaces?

Absolutely! Privacy plant screens can be made from a variety of plants such as hedging to create a natural way to divide your room. From open place offices to large restaurants, we can design privacy screens specifically to zone your building in a way that also infuses biophilia into the space.

Plants including privacy screen plants can absolutely work to enhance the office environment. Living plant screens can provide privacy between desks or key areas of the building in a way which also doesn’t create isolation among teams. The plants can also be selected to provide acoustic control, particularly dense foliage which can help absorb the sounds of chatter and keyboard tapping.

The presence of greenery as a whole has endless associations with boosting productivity, concentration and wellness in office environments. If you’re a UK business in search of office planters for privacy, our team can provide lots of ideas to help improve your workspace.

What Types of Commercial Environments Can Benefit From Hedge Privacy Screens?

In short, privacy screens can benefit any commercial setting where there is a need to gain privacy. This could involve a desire for privacy within internal spaces (i.e. offices) or to create a more inviting space for commercial businesses which overlook buildings or busy streets.

Examples of where we install privacy plant screens include bars, cafes, co-working spaces, offices, pubs, restaurants and retail stores. Crucially, you’ll notice the suitability includes both internal areas of buildings as well as exterior locations.

Since privacy screens such as hedging can be incredibly versatile, it’s also worth noting they can do more than keep prying eyes at bay. They are also great for noise reduction and wind protection. Privacy screens made from plants are also aesthetically pleasing, especially when placed in hospitality venues.

Do Privacy Plant Screens Help Improve Air Quality in Work Environments?

Yes, so long as you choose real plants for your privacy screen. If you’re familiar with our work here at Oasis Plants, then you’ll know that one of the top benefits of plants in commercial buildings is that they boast excellent air purification properties.

Air pollution comes in many forms, from vehicle emissions to the chemicals released in office furnishings. Plants are one of the best ways to reduce pollutants from the air, and privacy plant screens are just one of the ways we can achieve this for you.

Some of the most powerful air purifying plants to use in a privacy plant screen include Areca Palm (Dypsis Lutescens), Ficus Benjamina (Weeping Fig), Bamboo Palm (Chamaedorea Seifrizii) and Sansevieria (Snake Plant).

Based on the specifics of your project, we can provide tailored suggestions as to the best air purifying plants to use.

How to Choose Between a Living Screen Planter Vs Artificial Green Privacy Screen

Oasis Plants installs plant privacy screens across the UK. Depending on the environment, this can involve using a mixture of real or artificial greenery.

Since privacy is the top concern, artificial greenery can sometimes offer the benefit of providing a consistent level of screening, not to mention colour, although there are plenty of evergreen plants that can also achieve these benefits.

During your consultation, we’ll discuss elements such as aesthetics, environment suitability, maintenance levels, functionality, sustainability, longevity and cost. From there, we can help you make an informed choice about whether a privacy screen made from real or artificial plants would be best for your project.
