Anti-drip polyethylene foil
- Reduction of light transmittance
- Plant diseases through drops
- The 'lens effect'.
These are all negative effects of water droplets/condensation on the film. The effects of these drops are bad. Therefore it is important for the tree growers and fruit growers to avoid these negative effects.
These negative effects can be avoided by carefully choosing the type of film.
The solution
FruitSecurity Holland offers the solution. The foil properties Anti-Drip and Anti-Fog are made for mist to stick to the foil and slide down along the foil. Because of this the light permeability is optimally utilized, no more drops of the film will fall on the plants and the lens effect will not occur.
All types of anti-condensation films can be combined with other properties such as: chemical resistance to sulfur, chlorine, iron, etc, thermal IR films, diffuse films, cooling effect, etc.
IR
Separate water droplets act as an IR barrier and reduce the cooling of the greenhouse during cold nights. Therefore, the combination of anti-condensation and IR is recommended.
