PRODUCT 07.01 · COVERING
Greenhouse film — the cover is half the climate.
150 / 180 / 200 micron UV-stabilised film, quoted by grade and roll width. Quoted by grade, width and roll length, as a separate line from the frame.
Greenhouse film is a bought-in line on our quotation and is labelled as such. We state the grade, the roll width and the roll length, because those three numbers decide how much waste a crew generates on the roof.
What a quotation line should state
- Grade and thickness (micron for film, % shade for net, mesh count for insect net).
- Roll width and roll length — and whether the width matches the bay without a seam.
- UV treatment and expected service life band.
- Accessories required to fit it: clips, tape, tensioning.
Fitting it to the frame
Cover width has to span the arch and land in the gutter or on the side rail with enough overlap to tension. If the bay is wider than the roll, the roof needs a seam — which is a different installation sequence, not a different film. Send the bay width with the film enquiry and we will size the rolls to it.
