Kairo

A trapezium steel planter with 60° angled ends, designed to create flowing curved compositions from straight modular units. Available in seven heights from 300mm to 1200mm, Kairo solves the long-standing problem of forming sweeping planted lines without bespoke fabrication.

Designed by Kinley, Made in the UK

Configure domino bench

The trapezium geometry turns straight modular units into continuous curves — radii and bends that previously required custom fabrication, now available off the shelf.

Kairo’s parallel sides of 854mm and 1200mm, set between 60° angled ends, mean each unit rotates 60° from its neighbour. Place units end to end to form curves; alternate orientations to create zigzags. End cap and Light Detail variants resolve terminations and add evening illumination.

Parallel sides of 854mm (short) and 1200mm (long); internal corner angles of 60° and 120°. Heights from 300mm to 1200mm. 3mm folded steel in CorTen, RAL 7016, or custom powder-coated finishes. Delivered flat-packed with concealed fixings and reinforcing gussets. UK-manufactured to BS EN 9001.

Variants

Kairo End Caps (L and R)

Kairo End Caps close off a trapezium run with a deliberate terminus matched to the standard unit’s geometry. Available as L and R configurations so the cap always faces outward correctly. The result is a Kairo run that reads as a designed, finished form from end to end.

Available in standard, wide, tall, and Light Detail (LD) configurations, in left-handed (L) and right-handed (R) versions. 3mm steel in CorTen, RAL 7016, or custom powder-coated finishes. Compatible with all standard Kairo heights. Made in the UK to BS EN 9001.

  • L and R configurations for either end of a Kairo run
  • Matches standard Kairo geometry and finish
  • Available in standard, wide, tall, and LD variants
  • CorTen, RAL 7016, or custom powder-coated finishes
  • 3mm steel construction
  • Compatible with all standard Kairo heights
  • Class 1A fire-rated; 100% recyclable steel
  • Designed and manufactured in the UK

Kairo Light Detail (LD)

Kairo LD integrates concealed LED lighting into the standard trapezium planter. By day, the planter reads as the standard Kairo silhouette; by night, soft light grazes the surrounding ground and traces the curved arrangement, making the curve itself a defining nighttime feature of the scheme.

Available across the standard Kairo range — all seven heights (300mm to 1200mm) in CorTen, RAL 7016, or custom powder-coated finishes. LED specification (lumen output, colour temperature, IP rating) confirmed at order stage. Made in the UK.

  • Concealed LED lighting integrated into the trapezium form
  • Curved Kairo arrangements read as illuminated curves at night
  • No visible fittings — light reads as part of the planter
  • CorTen, RAL 7016, or custom powder-coated finishes
  • Available across all Kairo heights from 300mm to 1200mm
  • 3mm steel construction; reinforced footplate
  • External LED driver requirement confirmed per project
  • Made in the UK to BS EN 9001

Kairo Standard

Kairo Standard is the trapezium that does the work. Each unit’s 60° angled ends mean it rotates relative to its neighbour, naturally tracing a curve. Place straight, alternate, or arrange in series — Kairo lets specifiers shape planted spaces with off-the-shelf modules.

Parallel sides 854mm and 1200mm. 60° and 120° internal corner angles. Seven heights (300, 400, 500, 600, 800, 1000, 1200mm). 3mm steel construction with 100mm footplate (heights up to 600mm) or 300mm footplate (800mm+). CorTen, RAL 7016, or custom powder-coated finishes.

  • 60° and 120° internal corner angles
  • Parallel sides at 854mm (short) and 1200mm (long)
  • Unit rotates 60° from each neighbour — forms curves naturally
  • CorTen, RAL 7016, or custom powder-coated finishes
  • Seven heights from 300mm to 1200mm
  • 3mm steel construction with reinforcing gussets
  • Class 1A fire-rated; 100% recyclable steel
  • Flat-packed delivery; M10 anchor bolts and gasket tape supplied
