All of our greenhouse plastics are commercial-grade and are designed for use in both residential & commercial greenhouse installations. Our greenhouse plastics are designed for years of continuous use in the designated application.

How Are Our Plastics Different?

We only offer commercial-grade greenhouse plastic which is designed specificly for greenhouse installations. Our plastics conform to high quality control standards and are manufactured in the United States not overseas like most of the greenhouse plastics sold online.

Why Purchase a High Quality Greenhouse Plastic?

When building your greenhouse most of the cost of construction is typically put toward labor. Because the plastic acts as the roof of the greenhouse it is very important to not cut corners and choose a plastic that is designed for years of continual use and has been ASTM tested to ensure that the plastic's physical properties are indeed what the seller is claiming. Many "four year plastics" are not engineered to survive four years in real world conditions. Additionally, in a commercial growing application the cost of the plastic is quickly dwarfed by the value of the plants inside. Again, another reason to invest in a high quality plastic.

Clear Greenhouse Plastic: Enhance Your Growing Environment with Superior Protection

Greenhouses are a staple for gardeners and commercial growers alike, providing a controlled environment that can extend growing seasons, protect plants from harsh weather, and improve yields. One of the essential components of an effective greenhouse is the quality of its covering material. Clear Greenhouse Plastic, with its robust construction and advanced features, is an ideal solution for anyone looking to maximize the potential of their greenhouse.

Why Choose Clear Greenhouse Plastic?

Clear Greenhouse Plastic is not just any film. It’s specifically designed to offer superior protection and optimal growing conditions. Here's why it stands out:

1. Enhanced Durability: Composed of three layers—two sturdy polyethylene outer layers and a molten polyethylene core—this film is built to withstand the elements. The addition of heavy-duty polyester reinforcement between these layers adds excellent tear resistance, making it resilient against punctures and accidental damage.

2. Optimal Light Transmission: Light is crucial for plant growth, and the Clear Greenhouse Plastic allows for 84% light transmission. This means your plants receive plenty of natural sunlight, promoting healthy photosynthesis and robust growth. The clear nature of the plastic ensures that light disperses evenly throughout the greenhouse, reducing shadows and hotspots.

Key Features and Benefits

1. Triple-Layer Construction for Superior Strength
The three-layer design of the Clear Greenhouse Plastic is a testament to its durability. The outer polyethylene layers protect against environmental factors like wind and rain, while the molten polyethylene core adds structural stability. The polyester reinforcement sandwiched between these layers ensures the film can endure significant wear and tear, making it a long-term investment for any grower.

2. High Light Transmission for Healthy Plant Growth
Plants thrive when they have access to sufficient sunlight. With 84% light transmission, this plastic cover ensures that your greenhouse is bathed in natural light, essential for photosynthesis. This high light permeability is particularly beneficial for growing vegetables, flowers, and other light-loving plants.

3. UV Inhibitors for Extended Outdoor Use
The addition of UV inhibitors is a critical feature that sets this plastic apart from standard greenhouse films. By blocking harmful UV rays, these inhibitors prevent the plastic from becoming brittle and cracking over time, which is a common issue with lower-quality materials. This means you can rely on your greenhouse cover to perform effectively for several seasons.

Practical Applications

Clear Greenhouse Plastic is ideal for a variety of applications:

• Hobby Greenhouses: Perfect for backyard gardeners looking to extend the growing season or protect delicate plants.
• Commercial Greenhouses: Its durability and light transmission make it a smart choice for commercial operations that require reliable performance over multiple seasons.
• Seasonal Crop Protection: Use this film to cover crop rows or raised beds, providing a controlled microclimate that promotes growth and protects against pests and adverse weather.

Conclusion

Investing in high-quality Clear Greenhouse Plastic is a crucial step in creating an effective and resilient growing environment. With its robust construction, excellent light transmission, and UV protection, this plastic film offers everything you need to nurture your plants and enjoy bountiful harvests. Whether you're a hobby gardener or a commercial grower, choosing the right greenhouse cover can make all the difference in your success.
