Application: Plazas & Streetscapes · Custom heights 4–9 m
We build custom artificial date palms for plazas and streetscapes — 4–9 m specimens, NFPA 701 fire-retardant treatment available as an option, engineered per project. Streetscape trees face wind, pollution and public contact year-round. We build UV-stabilised, salt-air safe specimens engineered for exterior wind load and documented per project.
- Straight trunk profile, matched pairs available
- Dense UV-stabilised frond crown
- Trunk finish detailed to natural date palm

Installation, materials & documentation
High-footfall schemes are engineered for bump contact: planter edges are chamfered, lower branch rings are fixed rather than free-hanging, and the crown is kept clear of sprinkler envelopes and wayfinding lines.
Large specimens are delivered knock-down with a rigging sequence and a lift plan for the contractor; the fire pack is formatted for a venue review committee that clears many decorative installations in one pass.

Ordering & Specification FAQs
What buyers ask when specifying date palms for plazas and streetscapes — MOQ, lead time and this venue's requirements.
MOQ is project-based rather than per-SKU. One date palm at 4–9 m with a 3–5 m canopy is quotable on its own; matched pairs are specified as a pair, with the two trunks drawn to the same finish so they read as one planting. Quotation is built around the venue, the height and the quantity.
25–35 days for standard builds, and 45–60 days for custom builds. Lead time starts from approved drawings rather than from the enquiry, and builds above 5 m take a galvanized core, so the structural drawing should be settled before the clock is started.
Yes. Exterior builds are engineered against your project's wind load and documented per project, not sold with a generic outdoor label.
Direct-bolt anchoring into the pavement or a concealed planter base, with the method drawn for your structural engineer.
Yes — 4–9 m with a 3–5 m canopy, on a straight fibreglass trunk with a diamond-pattern finish and a galvanized core on builds above 5 m. The trunk finish is detailed to natural date palm, and matched pairs are drawn to the same profile so they read as one planting.
