Special Banana Outer Nylon
Special banana outer plastic sheeting is one of the most essential products that enables bananas, a tropical plant, to be grown with high yields in regions like Turkey where all four seasons are experienced. Banana trees, by their nature, are extremely vulnerable to sudden temperature changes, wind, and cold.
Especially during winter months, frost or strong winds can destroy all the hard work of the season in a single night. This is where professional exterior plastic sheeting comes into play, isolating your greenhouse from external elements and creating an ideal microclimate inside.
Don't let the weather ruin your hard work!
Product Information
Description
Our specialized banana plant cover products, offered within the category of above-ground plastic greenhouse covers, differ from ordinary greenhouse covers in that they are tailored to the specific needs of the banana plant. Thanks to their high light transmittance, they allow sunlight essential for photosynthesis to enter, while special thermal additives (IR) prevent heat accumulated during the day from escaping at night. This heat retention property keeps the greenhouse’s internal temperature 4-5 degrees higher than the outside temperature, resulting in fuel savings.
Special Banana-Shaped Outer Nylon Wrapping Options
Banana greenhouses, being typically high-tunnel structures, are therefore more exposed to wind loads. For this reason, the flexibility and mechanical strength of the plastic sheeting used are of vital importance. Specialized banana greenhouse outer plastic sheeting types generally differ according to their service life (36 months, 60 months, etc.) and the additives they contain.
- UV (Ultraviolet) Additive: Filters out the sun’s harmful rays, extending the life of the nylon.
- EVA (Elasticity) Additive: Allows the nylon to stretch in the wind, preventing tearing.
- AB (Antibacterial) Additive: Impairs the vision of pests such as whiteflies and thrips, preventing them from entering the greenhouse and reducing pesticide use.
- LD (Light Diffuser) Additive: It refracts light, distributing it evenly throughout the greenhouse, thus ensuring the growth of plants in the shade (lower clusters).
Investment Costs and Prices for Special Banana Outer Films
Special banana plantation outer plastic sheeting costs constitute a significant portion of greenhouse construction costs. However, our growers know very well that choosing a low-quality and thin sheet can tear at the first storm, causing much greater damage. Prices are determined according to the thickness (in microns) of the product, its width, and the density of the different additives it contains.
