ISHS Acta Horticulturae 170: Greenhouse Construction and Covering Materials

PERFORMANCE OF IR POLYETHYLENE FILM OVER TWO YEARS' TRIAL

Authors:   W. Roberts, Joel C. Simpkins, D. Mears
Abstract:
The tested film gave substantial energy savings (24 to 37%) over the year, with crop response equal to or superior to the check greenhouse glazing. Light (PAR) transmission of the test film is slightly less than the control initially, but slightly greater after a summer.
