How to Choose the Right Film for Greenhouses
16.06.2025

Choosing the right film for greenhouses is a crucial step to ensure optimal plant growth conditions. The right material affects temperature, lighting, and humidity inside the greenhouse.
Key selection criteria:
- Film material: polyethylene, PVC, or reinforced film
- Transparency: determines the amount of light transmitted
- Thickness: affects strength and durability
- UV protection: shields from harmful sunlight
- Vapor permeability: regulates humidity inside the greenhouse
Recommendations:
- Polyethylene film with UV protection, 150-200 microns thick, suits most crops.
- Reinforced film is used for added strength and durability.
- Choose a film with an optimal balance of light transmission and heat reflection.
Choosing the right greenhouse film ensures favorable plant growth conditions, increases yields, and extends the greenhouse’s lifespan.
