NOWOGREEN ETFE: the professional greenhouse film - functional, durable, permanent, sustainable

The NOWOGREEN fluoropolymer film is a translucent premium film for covering your greenhouses in horticulture. The innovative, permanent anti-drop finish of this self-cleaning ETFE film ensures a uniformly high light penetration and prevents uncontrolled condensation drops on your plants.

UV-stabil, tear-proof, hail-resistant!

This is how NOWOGREEN ETFE protects your harvest:
In case of extreme load, it expands to almost five times its length. It withstands the highest stresses such as wind, water and snow loads and thus defies all weather conditions. If it tears despite excessive tension, then it does so only at one point, not along its entire length, because its structure combines high elongation at break with high tear resistance.

The permanent anti-drip properties of NOWOGREEN ETFE prevent the accumulation of condensation above your plants and thus uncontrolled dripping: the water runs off to the side. If you collect water in containers, you can reuse it in a controlled manner and thereby significantly reduce water consumption. This crucial film property is permanent and does not need to be renewed.

More light = more yield!

Inspired by the lotus blossom effect, the developers of NOWOGREEN ETFE used the low surface tension of the fluoropolymer film for its self-cleaning effect. This allows rainwater to drip off on the outside of the roof, washing off dirt particles. Due to this permanent self-cleaning effect, NOWOGREEN ETFE remains permanently translucent at over 94 percent, which not only benefits photosynthesis, but also the growth of your plants and thus, your yield. In addition, our special production processes ensure above-average UV transmission and thus maximum grow.

NOWOGREEN ETFE makes even further contributions to sustainability in greenhouse construction and agriculture, as it can be 100 percent recycled back into its original raw material, making it completely recyclable.

Normally, the soil in the greenhouse would release the heat energy absorbed during the day at night in the form of long-wave infrared rays. However, the NOWOGREEN ETFE retains this IR radiation, thus storing the heat energy of the sun. This saves energy, especially in controlled cultivation in countries with high day/night temperature fluctuations.
With a multilayer cushion construction, the U-value can also be significantly improved.

The NOWOGREEN ETFE diffuse variant is characterized by its high light diffusion. Its haze is over 60 percent. Thus, on the one hand, this matt film prevents shadows from being cast, which would impair plant growth, and on the other hand, it allows UV rays to penetrate deeper into the plant stand, thus reducing the growth of fungi and the like. The use of pesticides can be reduced or even eliminated.

It goes without saying that it is certified for fire protection in accordance with the European standard DIN EN 13501-1.
