HOW ITS MADE

How is Basebox made?

When it comes to Basebox, our garden pods are value-engineered to ensure quality at affordable pricing.

From the initial design stages to the final touches, we engineer and manufacture all our garden pods in-house at our state-of-the-art production facility in the UK, giving us complete control over all aspects to guarantee you receive a high-quality garden pod.

The secret behind Basebox’s durability lies in using high-grade materials. We source and select components known for their strength and resilience while maintaining that visual appeal. From the robust framework to the weather-resistant cladding, every element is chosen carefully to ensure long-lasting quality.

Choose Basebox by Green Retreats with confidence, knowing you’re drawing on years of garden pod experience to give you the best-finished product.

OUR

Walls

Crafted in-house using pioneering eco-friendly materials, the panel walls consist of a thick 9mm white MDF board with 75mm thick eco-polymer foam insulation. The exterior cladding is a treated recycled composite made from sawdust from the milling industry, primed for resistance against rot and decay.

OUR

Flooring

The flooring is designed to prevent any potential dampness from rising by promoting air circulation. Additionally, the garden building subflooring sits above the ground level to further ensure this. The 80mm polyurethane insulation is supported by 1mm powder-coated steel on both the top and bottom to keep the flooring protected against all weather types.

Roofing

The garden building’s roofing is made with a thick 80mm insulated steel panel reinforced with 1mm powder-coated steel. For further structural integrity, a 0.5mm galvanised steel sheet is added to reinforce the panel. The roof’s design is slightly sloped, enabling effective water runoff to the rear guttering system and downpipe.
