Greenhouse covering film SUNTHERM

polyethyleneUV protectiontransparent

Thermal cover films with UV protection. By incorporating an IR additive, thermal cover films absorb and reflect infra-red radiation in the range between 7-15 microns (radiation reflected from all bodies in the greenhouse). This reduces the loss of energy accumulated in the plant foliage into the atmosphere, and prevents the cooling of the foliage at night which is essential to maintaining higher foliage temperatures – especially on cold nights. Moreover, when the foliage temperature is higher than the air temperature, the plants are drier and this reduces incidents of landscaping diseases. The use of thermal cover films with the IR additive has been shown to increase crop yield in comparison to cover films without the IR additive. In addition, thermal cover films contribute to heating cost savings. Additives are used to significantly reduce the damage caused and viral diseases transmitted to the plants by various insect pests. This also significantly reduces the proliferation of foliage diseases, especially botrytis, as well as the “blackening” of red rose petals. As a result, the use of fungicides and pesticides can also be significantly reduced. In addition, by absorbing the UV radiation, our cover films also reduce contact with various pests, viral diseases transmitted by those pests, and the “blackening” of the petals of red roses
