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.

Exploring the Benefits of Greenhouse Sheets for Optimal Plant Growth

Greenhouse gardening offers a unique opportunity to cultivate a variety of plants in a controlled environment, extending growing seasons and protecting plants from harsh weather conditions. A critical component of this setup is the covering material. Greenhouse Sheets are a highly effective option that provides both protection and a conducive growing environment for your plants. Let’s delve into why these sheets are essential for successful greenhouse management.

What Are Greenhouse Sheets?

Greenhouse Sheets are specialized coverings designed to shield your greenhouse and its contents from external elements while allowing sufficient light to support plant growth. These sheets are constructed from multiple layers of polyethylene, with a unique 10 mil thickness. A molten polyethylene core is sandwiched between two strong outer layers of polyethylene, all reinforced with polyester strings. This combination creates a robust, tear-resistant material that stands up to challenging weather conditions and daily wear.

UV Protection for Longevity and Plant Health

Sunlight is essential for plant growth, but excessive UV radiation can be harmful—not only to plants but also to the greenhouse covering itself. Over time, UV rays can degrade standard plastics, causing them to become brittle and break. Greenhouse Sheets are equipped with UV inhibitors that protect the material from sun damage, extending its lifespan to up to 4 years in outdoor conditions. This means you can rely on consistent performance and protection, year after year.

Moreover, these UV inhibitors help maintain the structural integrity of the sheets, ensuring that they do not crack or peel under prolonged sun exposure. This durability is crucial for creating a stable environment where plants can thrive without disruption.

Practical Applications and Benefits

Greenhouse Sheets are versatile and can be used for various greenhouse structures, from small hobbyist setups to large commercial operations. Their robust nature makes them suitable for use in areas prone to extreme weather, such as strong winds or heavy snow. Additionally, their tear-resistant properties reduce maintenance needs, making them a cost-effective choice in the long run.

Here are some key benefits of using Greenhouse Sheets:

1. Enhanced Protection: The durable construction protects plants from wind, rain, snow, and other environmental factors.
2. Extended Lifespan: With UV inhibitors and a reinforced design, these sheets can last up to 4 years, reducing replacement frequency and costs.
3. Optimal Light Transmission: Ensures plants receive sufficient sunlight for healthy growth, without the risk of scorching or light deficiency.
4. Ease of Installation: The sheets are flexible and easy to cut, allowing for customized fits on various greenhouse structures.
