SolaWrap- More than 30 years of proven innovation

SolaWrap stands for strength and durability within the global greenhouse roofing industry. With over 30 years of design expertise and scientific testing – including tests conducted in the harshest natural climates and weather conditions – SolaWrap Greenhouse Plastic has proven itself in hailstorms, snowstorms, hurricane-force winds, and severe heat and cold. Whatever the conditions of temperature, moisture type or barometric strain, this system is sure to stand up to them.

SolaWrap Greenhouse Plastic Delivers Significant Energy Savings

SolaWrap greenhouse film with the bubbles simply saves more energy. Its unique design features plastic air bubbles, that are specifically engineered for thermal insulation and diffusion of sunlight. In combination with the profile attachment, the keder locking mechanism ensures a water and air-tight structure that withstands even the most extreme elements and climates. LP-Keder provides an insulating effect that retains up to 95% of heat radiation with an impressive R-value of 1.7. This energy efficient design represents significant cost savings for its users.

SolaWrap Delivers High transparency

SolaWrap guarantees an even light diffusion over the entirety of the structure. LP-Keder uniquely allows a substantial amount of sunlight, approximately 83% of which is diffused by healthy infrared light, diffusing through more than 100 air bubbles per square foot. The diffused light scatters evenly so as to avoid and eliminate the common difficulties of both shading and burning areas with the structure.

5 Year Long-term UV protection

SolaWrap comes with a 5 -year warranty against UV degradation. Tested and proven over 30 years, amazingly the films do not change in color or transmission characteristics after being exposed on greenhouses as shown in table below.

Greenhouse Film Installation

The air bubble greenhouse film is very easy to assemble due to the special features of the Keder section and Keder channel:

1. Unwind Polydress® LP-Keder from the film roll.

2. Feed the greenhouse film in strips into the unique
greenhouse truss profiles.

3. Haul on the pull rope until the desired end
point is reached.

4. Finally, simply cut the foil with a knife or scissors.

In case of damage, you can easily replace individual strips. This keeps costs down and promotes sustainability. Blueprint of the layout of LP-Keder and the plastic profile
