# How is SolaWrap Greenhouse Plastic different than Bubble Wrap

## SolaWrap Bubble Greenhouse Covering VS Bubble Wrap...Are there any differences?

![Bubble wrap vs SolaWrap Bubble Film](https://www.globalplasticsheeting.com/hubfs/Snag_4128cba1-png.png)

 

The short answer is YES,  SolaWrap is 17 mil thick when flattened out and over 1/4" inflated. Normal bubble wrap will have varying thickness' but the biggest difference is the** u****ltraviolet**** inhibitor** present in our film which gives it a 5 year UV warranty. 

 

**We have structures using the same film continuously (no recover) for over 30 years without issues. **

 

Another very visible difference is how the bubbles in our film are closed with a 3rd layer of film, helping with thermal gain or loss.  Bubble film is only two layers, the outer skin and the bubble. 

** **

**In Summary:**

- SolaWrap is 17 mil thick
- SolaWrap is designed for the sun, wind snow for greenhouse growing. It has UV inhibitors.
- SolaWrap has a 30 year track record withstanding 100 MPH winds and 120 lbs snow loads
- Solawrap has 3 layer bubbles. It's so tough it's almost impossible to pop.
