Greenhouse polythene

Our greenhouse polythene is 5-layer nylon and resistant to poisons and various pests. We supply high-quality, durable polyethylene (PE) film manufactured from 100% virgin raw materials, offering excellent strength, clarity, flexibility and long-term performance in demanding agricultural environments. The film is 180 -220 microns thick and UV-treated, making it suitable for prolonged outdoor exposure while helping maintain its protective and functional properties over time.

Designed specifically for greenhouse applications, the polythene is installed over wooden, metallic, or other suitable greenhouse structures to create a controlled growing environment. It acts as a protective barrier between crops and external environmental conditions while allowing beneficial sunlight to enter the greenhouse.

The film helps farmers and horticultural producers manage temperature, humidity, light, and airflow, creating conditions that support healthy and productive crop growth. By providing a physical barrier, it also helps protect plants from wind, rain, excessive sunlight, dust, and certain pests, reducing the impact of unfavorable outdoor conditions.

Greenhouse polythene is particularly valuable for the production of high-value horticultural and commercial crops, including vegetables, flowers, herbs, seedlings, and other crops that benefit from a more controlled growing environment. It enables farmers to improve crop management, extend growing periods, and achieve more consistent production regardless of changing outdoor conditions.

Its 100% virgin material composition contributes to better mechanical strength and durability, while UV treatment helps the film withstand the effects of prolonged solar exposure. The 200-micron thickness provides a robust covering suitable for agricultural greenhouse structures when properly installed and maintained.
