We obtain new inequalities relating the inradius of a planar convex set with interior containing no point of the integral lattice, with the area, perimeter and diameter of the set. By considering a special sublattice of the integral lattice, we also obtain an inequality concerning the inradius and area of a planar convex set with interior containing exactly one point of the integral lattice.
