Proven Duratough 200mu (8mil) greenhouse
film covers with 4 year pro-rata U.V. warranty.
Crop Cover greenhouse design uses the latest development
in greenhouse film technology from around the world. The Redpath
company exclusively uses the Duratough brand of greenhouse film cladding
as it ensures our customers of high light transmission & very long
service life. Duratough is constructed from a tough Ethyl Vinyl Acetate
co-polymer. “EVA” films offer excellent thermal energy retention for night-time
efficiency plus provide high transparency & clarity to the crop during
the day.
Redpath Duratough contains a quality UV stabilization
package & comes with a factory backed pro-rata warranty of up to 4
years. Expected & usual life is up to 7 years.
Duratough is manufactured using co-extrusion technology
with three specifically engineered layers of film being extruded together.
The outer layers are heavily UV stabilised for extra resistance to the
suns harmful rays, the center layer contains a high tear resistant polymer
for strength against high wind loads & the inner crop facing layer
features anti condensate additives for reduced condensation drip
within the structure. Duratough is usually fastened to the structure
using Lockstrip or Duralock 2 film holding system whilst Polyguard greenhouse
frame lagging or “Hotspot” tape is used on the greenhouse frame for both
abrasion & heat protection.
