Know before you buy
Unlike standard polyethylene film, this material features a 4-layer woven construction that is significantly more resistant to punctures and tears. It is designed for long-term durability, making it a better choice for growers who want to avoid frequent replacements.
Yes. By scattering light, the material reduces harsh shadows and helps light reach the lower leaves of your plants. This promotes more uniform growth and helps prevent burning during peak sunlight hours.
Yes, this material is suitable for both single and double-layer roof applications. It is compatible with standard spring and lock channels, allowing for flexible installation methods.
The anti-fog additive prevents water droplets from forming on the underside of the plastic. This keeps the interior clearer and reduces the risk of fungal diseases caused by dripping water falling onto your plants.
Because this is a heavy-duty woven material, it requires batten strapping for proper anchoring. This ensures the plastic remains securely fastened to your frame, even in high-wind conditions.
The plastic includes integrated UV additives that protect the material itself from degradation caused by sun exposure. This ensures the plastic maintains its structural integrity and clarity over several seasons.
