Reinforced film reinforced tarpaulin and other

The process of growing vegetables and fruits can be divided into two phases: the construction of greenhouses and care of plants during their growth. Will it eat strawberry spring, and whether there will be on the table crunchy cucumbers - largely depends on how and what material will be built greenhouse. As used gardeners ukryvnyh reinforced film reinforced tent or tarpaulin special material creates favorable conditions for greenhouse plants.

Main characteristics reinforced film

For a long time for greenhouses polyethylene film was a single cover material. She meets many requirements, but after one year of use mutnela, much worse than the transmitted light. And the integrity of the fabric usually in a single season it was impossible to save, it is easily damaged even when minor mechanical effects.

Appeared on the market reinforcing film for greenhouses virtually replaced conventional polyethylene. She has not lost audio technical characteristics of this material, and it eliminated the major disadvantages of conventional polyethylene.

Fabric reinforced frame is a mesh to which is fused with the both sides polyethylene film. The presence of a dense grid and active material can be used as a safe and a covering coating gives him considerable number of positive characteristics. Advantages of reinforced films:

• tensile strength, can withstand significant mechanical damage;
• It has a hydro- and vapor barrier properties;
• withstands considerable variations in temperature (-30 to 90 ° C);
• durable in use (5 years or more).

This material is resistant to UV light, can withstand adverse weather conditions, characterized by a strong, up to a barrage, wind, precipitations in the form of rain and hail.

Reinforced film reinforced PE and the membrane: the material properties

Produce several types of reinforced film. They differ both in composition and size of the frame weaving and quality of deposited layers of polyethylene. The frame is made by weaving yarns which are made from the following materials:

• fiberglass;
• polyethylene (PE);
• polypropylene.

The thickness of the different filaments, which affects the strength and weight of the reinforced film. Cells may also vary in size. The film with the major elements of a light guide, small dimensions enhance the strength of covering material. In horticulture used primarily film having a mesh size 1,5h1,5 cm. This format provides optimum comfort for the plants in the greenhouses and greenhouses.

film welded on the frame differ in thickness, density and additives which improve the functional characteristics of the material. Supplements provide the following properties greenhouse films:

1. Hydrophilic. Prevent the formation of condensate on the inner side of the film drops that will inevitably be dropped down on the plants. The moisture flows down the walls of a greenhouse.
2. Antistatic. These additives make it possible to push away the dust from the outside film layer formed preventing dirt, which will hinder the penetration of light.
3. Heat protection. Hinder the exit of heat accumulated inside the greenhouse.
4. Light stabilization. Protect the film from degradation by sunlight.

There are also membrane film, ie having microscopic holes in each cell through which the air penetrates into the greenhouse -. The so-called "breathable" film.

Product form reinforced film - roll. Length standard bundles -. 10, 25 and 50 m Sometimes there are rolls of 100 m long film width may be 2, 3, 4, or 6 m When coiling.. a roll for ease of transport wide fabric is folded: 3-4 meter - in half the height of the bundles is obtained respectively 1.5 or 2 m; 6-meter film is folded three times, so that the coil height is 2 meters. webs tightly packed, must be within the sheet with the characteristics of the product.

Useful advice! When buying a roll of reinforced film is necessary to pay attention to the integrity of the packaging. If it is damaged, it is likely that there is a defect on the material itself.

What can reinforced with a reinforcing film

Scope reinforced extensive film. It is used wherever there is a need to build temporary premises, shelter building, materials, subjects openings or plants from rain, moisture penetration from winds, low or high temperature. The main areas where reinforced film used:

1. Industrial and private gardening. It is covering materials for hothouses and greenhouses constructed from this film temporary vegetable stores, sheds, silos.
2. Industry and construction. Reinforced polyethylene fabric make warehouses lightweight construction, it is closed unfinished objects, canned equipment in manufacturing plants, make fences for temporary landfills, underlie the floor as waterproofing. As the waterproof film material used in the performance of roofing.
3. Gen. Suitable film for protection of furniture, electrical and other household items from moisture and low temperatures. It is used in the regeneration of decorative ponds, to protect against the ingress of cold air in the room and moisture through the wooden window frames, wooden structures for waterproofing and flooring.

Active use of reinforced films in various areas of production and life contribute to its elasticity, flexibility and low weight. Secure, disassemble and transport the material is easy to work with the film do not need complex and expensive instruments that do not require special skills.

What you need to know when choosing a reinforced film for greenhouses

Before we cover the greenhouse film, you must carefully calculate the size of a covering cloth. It should calculate gateways, bends taking into account features of the carcass structure. Reinforced film does not stretch, do not get her to pull even at 1-2 cm.

Particular attention should be paid to the color. To plant the optimal conditions have been created, it is best to choose white film. It is less likely delay the sunlight (light transmission - 85%). If we consider that the reinforcement and so quite significantly reduces the rate, then using the film green or blue, to be ready for luminance decrease by 5-7%. You can purchase color coating only if the greenhouse crops are planted species for which such conditions are acceptable.

For light-loving plants necessary to choose a film with large cells or 1,5h1,5 2x2 cm.

Meaningful indicator - density. It affects the strength of the material, durability of use and price. Traditionally for greenhouses material is selected from 120 to 200 md.

Useful advice! By purchasing a reinforced film for greenhouses, do not rely only on the information (relative density), placed on the item card online store or hear from a sales assistant. Be sure to ask for a certificate of quality of the goods, which will be given accurate information. Visually and to the touch density reinforced film can not be determined, and these are often used by unscrupulous sellers.

The main characteristics, which should pay attention to when buying a reinforced film:

• mesh sizes;
• color;
• density;
• the presence of additives that enhance the consumer quality of the film (hydrophilic, light stabilization, antistatic).

Often, preference is given to a reinforced film 200 md. It refers to the average price segment, withstand high mechanical loads, it is easy to work with. However, you can purchase for the greenhouse reinforced film 400 md. The price of this material slightly higher - by 3-4% on the value of the density of the film 200 md.

If cut out of the workpiece cloth, hot-glue them (via soldering or blowtorch) or cold process, applying adhesive compositions, it will cover on greenhouse reinforced film 400 md, which is comfortable to wear on the frame at the beginning of the season and take on the end of it. Do not have to spend time styling, fixing the fabric will not risk damaging it during fixing.

Reinforced film for greenhouses: reviews consumers and practical tips

Before equipment superfluous greenhouse will hear the views of those who have enjoyed the film. Neither statement does not take into account all the subtleties and nuances that arise during practical application.

"Film Leno, 170 microns. This year, the second time was setting. Normally, light is transmitted not become worse. I hothouse rectangular, ever had a problem with sagging cloth. For this is not so: as the secured and is - no cavities. "

Semenov, Voronezh

"The film is a rigid mesh, perfect. However, it was necessary to correct the frame. straight lines cut off, and the curvature of the slats nailed immediately began to appear. But now he is satisfied: excellent standing Teplička. Grid refracts the sun's rays, or burning, and mild, moderate, warm inside. While cucumbers, lettuce, radishes develop normally. No wonder the money spent "

Nikolai Fokin, city Yaroslavl

"I heard the opinion that for the year of application of reinforced mesh remains intact, and the film falls apart. Nothing for two seasons will not hurt, and it may not happen if the grid is not only to make a hole. State of the material is happy, I'm sure that the third season (and maybe more) will enjoy this film. "

Christina Silin, city Belgorod

In some reviews people give advice, which is worth considering.

"I have to greenhouse reinforced 200 micron film. Strong, absolutely nowhere to be torn in two years. The greenhouse is large, about 30 squares. I prepared a tape to patch up, but he did not need. However, he made a mistake. Frame made of wood and nailed film Furniture staplers. Staples every one and a half centimeters. When filming them, holes done. This is the first year of application. And this season planted the tape, which is packed boxes with heavy machinery, and shot through her film. And reliable, and the hole is not done, when I shoot. A possible and easy film of polyethylene enclose dense. "

Alexander, city Yaroslavl

Major disadvantages mentioned in separate review primarily relate to the use of fragility.

"So much money, this reinforced film just not worth it. When pulled polyethylene, at least I knew it was for a year. And here we promised at least 3 seasons. It would be desirable to have after the first throw! Full of holes, dirty. "

Valery, city Gukovo

"I did not like the reinforced film. In overcast conditions in the greenhouse at all gray. And it does not durable. There was a strong wind, flying twigs, even without leaves, as early spring was. We often winds this time of year. Full of holes. I can not say that really are empty, but many punctures. Density is not the biggest - 120 microns, but expected better. I do not know what will happen before the end of the season. Disappointed. "

Anna, city Lipetsk

Opinion, of course, different, but mostly positive content. Based on the feedback (from experience practical application) it can be concluded that with proper use, t. E. taking into account the characteristics of the material, reinforced film nevertheless confirms the declared quality and guaranteed service life is 3-5 years.

Reinforced film industry: the appointment of a covering construction of awnings

Another fairly broad scope of the reinforced film - it's construction. Starting an object from scratch, it is practically impossible to complete it during the spring-summer period. Stockpiled materials, unsecured premises need to be protected from the autumn rain and the winter cold. And this function is performed by building tents.

If you need to hide a small amount of materials or a small room, you can buy a film and produce your own tent. The film is worth buying a density of 120 microns. If the tent will be used as a shelter premises a short time, the film material can be simply press the heavy objects, but always with a smooth surface to avoid damaging the plastic layer. At the bottom of the tent harboring materials easy to pull off the vinyl packing tape.

It is convenient to use the building tarpaulins with eyelets. Ready-made options are always available with such openings, in which are easily threaded a rope or cable. Eyelets can be put on its own, buying them in a specialty store. And if the awning grommets and small sizes needed are small, they can be purchased in the department of the shopping center that sells sewing supplies.

When choosing a building awning, the following factors must be considered:

• the intensity and duration of use;
• what weather conditions will affect the material;
• Do you need the presence of the retaining elements.

Based on the above factors are selected density and dimensions of the material.

A balanced approach to the selection will maximize cost savings and achieve the expected results.

Prices of reinforced films manufacturers and material

Trading Network provides a reinforced film imported and domestically produced. The main film suppliers on the Russian market are Korea and China. Assortment large, the material has different characteristics. Korean products are of high quality and appropriate price. The most popular Leno film. The material has a different density polyethylene films are available with various additives and without them.

Among the Chinese products have reinforced film for greenhouses, the price is much lower than domestic counterparts. Naturally, the material of poor quality. But the goods available to the consumer and therefore in demand.

Among domestic manufacturers should be noted "Zagorski experienced plastics factory." Products are of high quality. Frame made from monofilament thread LDPE, sturdy. Film additives that protect from the damaging effects of ultraviolet radiation, making them ideal for covering greenhouses. The plant produces various web width, including widescreen - 6 m. Product is protected against forgery special type of labeling - red threads.

Competitive and Stren film, which is produced outside Moscow company OOO TD "Novopolimer". Durable material, the reinforcing frame is made of polypropylene. The polyethylene layers have enhanced antistatic property and light fast. The plant produces the film with different mesh sizes, which makes it possible to select the optimum light transmission.

Price reinforcing film largely depends on the density of the material. The larger it is, the higher the cost. Usually indicates the price of the product for a roll, at least - per meter. In some cases, negotiated price per m² reinforced film.

Take for comparison of the prices quoted by trading companies. Film reinforced STRONG 120/2/25, the cost - 26 rubles / rm.. M. The other type of fabric of Russian-made "Liantreyd" LLC, reinforced film 200 md, price - 53 rubles. per m².

Comparing prices, it can be concluded that the increase in density of 80 g / m² increases the price almost tripled. Cost analogues Korean production higher by 3-7%. Products made in China and related to economy class, the price is 10-15% lower than the cost of the domestic film with the same characteristics.

Useful advice! By purchasing a reinforced film of any producer, read the product information on the packaging. If the data is not present - the goods are not certified, and from this should be abandoned.

Manufacturing process tarpaulin fabric

Relatively recently a new type of covering material - tarpaulin. The word "tarpaulin" from the English translates to "tarp". He performed from polyethylene. The production process resembles fabric manufacturing technology. Interwoven yarns, not only natural and fused polypropylene. Thread up tight framework which is laminated on both sides of an opaque polyethylene. The result is a material much superior in performance tarpaulins used for covering and polyethylene. It imported material, it is produced in Turkey, China, Korea, Poland and other countries. Tarpaulina price significantly lower than the cost of domestic covering materials.

The fabric has a nice blue or green color and has a number of high quality characteristics:

• light, the tarpaulin considerably easier;
• hydro and vapor-proof;
• tear-resistant;
• elastic;
• resistant to UV radiation;
• It has a low cost.

Initially, the tarpaulin was used during the road works. But almost immediately its scope has expanded considerably: from the tissue began to make tents. To date, for this covering material and there is no viable alternative to the competition.

Construction tents tarpaulin: use without restriction

The basic qualities of the covering material makes it possible to use in various industrial, commercial and residential purposes.

Tarpaulin has a different density. Min - 50 g / m². From this fabric making bags for sugar. For the manufacture of awnings tarpaulin is used whose density is 65 g / m²i above.

The elasticity of the material allows to cover objects of various configurations. Awning can be mounted on the frame - the perfect temporary shelter appears. If you connect several tents, get a large canvas, with which you can arrange a temporary large storage room. Canopy tarpaulina in construction is often used to build shelters, as well as to protect gruzomaterialov during transport.

Useful advice! As webs for covering materials should not choose tarpaulin having a density less than 120 g / m². Friction with the hard surface is inevitable in this case, and it can greatly shorten the life of the tent service.

The edges of the awning always tarpaulina further strengthened by soldered into polypropylene tape. The dense part awning (along the edges) are inserted eyelets at a distance of 1 m from each other. Extreme, corner eyelets, which account for the maximum load, have an additional plastic inserts.

Dimensions construction tents can be very different. At low settings used most often small tissue density. For example, 2x3 m awning construction made from a material whose density is 65-100 g / m². Usually it issued without eyelets and a budget price. It demanded an option to cover non-durable time. In addition to the direct appointment, the tent can be used in everyday life, while hiking, fishing, where it will serve as a tent or canopy.

With dimensions 4 × 5 m awning construction has already eyelets and is made of a thick fabric (75 g / m² or higher). Though there are economy variants with a thin cloth. With significant amounts webs (100 m² and more) is used reinforced film, which starts from the density of 170 g / m².

Tent tarpaulin: reviews positive and negative

Versatility of awnings tarpaulina contributed to the emergence of a significant number of comments. Evaluates the quality, cost, appearance. As for the price, here everyone has the right to choose. Appearance almost all evaluated as visually pleasing, aesthetic. there are different views on quality.

"From the standpoint of water repellency such tilt good. If it is good to fix, no dirt will penetrate. But here on the strength of the bet. He does not break, but the hole to make it easy. I did not mean, even without applying forces, holed awning spatula. Of course, the defect quickly eliminated, the patch imposed, but the fact of damage is. "

Sergey greyish, city Maikop

"It seems that the eyelets hold on anything. On the first trip, two escaped. And most importantly - can not be replaced at the same needs are large. And there I have not even met. Replace nothing, getting used to the holes. Can someone tell me where to look? "

Andrey, Volgograd

"Excellent tent, lightweight, durable, I do use it, and to everyone who asks, give. I chose a tight, 180 microns. Sought to eyelets were not made of plastic and metal. Two of them have already lost. The problem is small, covering all the same high quality, well-kept, but, probably, the marriage made when installing these rings. Or even the idea of ​​returning the goods. "

Oleg steaks, city Permian

Poorly inserted grommets - a problem that in a review, is not uncommon. The bulk of opinion - positive.

"Easy, I'm one cope with the size of 5x8 m. I take half a year, no defects anywhere yet. I heard that the sun is less need to keep, remove and pile up when not needed. "

Eugene Symonenko, city Yekaterinburg

"When at my unfinished house done a fine roof, I was skeptical. But the builders were convinced of the correctness of his actions, and I just watched in silence. Yes, and we joined together blue awnings, made of two one ring in the ring. The first time I resorted checked after each rain. Even the snow torpoulinovye tents stood. Now the joke that you want to live under this blue sky.

Elena Postnikov, city Dace.

Mixed reviews on tarpauline bit. As a lack of dominating weak eyelets. As dignity users allocate ease a variety of sizes, price and reliability of protection against rain.

reinforcing film: Additional information for demanding customers

Sometimes it is difficult to understand the quality of the goods. Receive convincing information from the seller to purchase goods, and it breaks, tears, breaks down long before the warranty expires.

When buying a reinforced film for greenhouses pitfall may be no use for the manufacture of primary and secondary materials. How can I find it? It is necessary to look into the matter itself: no one vendor manager does not share this information, even if it is to own it. Do not be tempted by cheap goods, if it is not checked, it is an economy proposal. Carefully read the information on the film.

Be sure to check the data about the manufacturer (the address and phone number) on the size of the product, technical characteristics, including the composition of the description of the density and other characteristics, taking into account additives. If the information has not turned a full picture of the product, it will likely not certified, therefore, on quality assurance can be forgotten.

For those who are planning to buy a tent from tarpaulina, it is useful to know the following information. When cutting fabric for awning use two technologies, more precisely, two of the size. First embodiment - when is the official finishing size, ie.. if you specify the parameters of the finished product. These tents are sold under the "Tarpiks" brand.

The second type is the official designation of the dimensions - for cutting fabric, ie, in the tent indicates the size of workpieces. Naturally, the fabric is folded, part of it goes to the seams. This tents "Tarpaulin". If purchased material with dimensions 3x4 m, and it turned out that side is smaller by 20 cm, it is not a hoax - is a notation method. Take into account the size of the difference is recommended to purchase.

It can be enumerated positive characteristics and shortcomings of waterproof and vapor barrier reinforced film. We can argue about the quality and disagree with the methods of size notation, preferring imported or domestic goods. But two indisputable advantages of reinforced films do not recognize it is impossible: it is obtained from a reliable shelter, and the process of laying the material itself becomes much easier.
