Strength, durability and flexibility are the hallmarks of Solarwoven, a workhorse greenhouse covering that is used in tens of thousands of hectares of greenhouses across the world. But not always for the reasons you would think, and not always in the ways you’d expect.
Developed as a plastic covering with incomparable strength and durability, Solarwoven stands out for its ability to handle tasks that ordinary polyethylene cannot. Its robust construction allows it to tackle challenges, especially in areas where regular plastic may fail, such as when encountering other materials or facing the risks of holes due to a combination of usage, wind, and friction - a common concern, particularly at joints like trenches.
In this guide, we’ve pulled together stories of Solarwoven growers around the world, who have strategically used this durable plastic screen in their operations. By exploring the hows and whys behind their choices, growers can gain insights into the versatility and practical applications of Solarwoven in their greenhouses.

"By switching to Solarwoven, we were able to lower the temperature, both in the leaf and in the growing environment. Also, during the rainy season we continue production, obtaining the same quality as when we place the plants in direct sun light. With a conventional greenhouse covering we would not have these results."
