There are many necessary considerations when choosing a greenhouse glazing. First of all, every entrepreneur wants glass that minimizes costs and optimizes output. Moreover, important criteria in this decision include factors such as light transmission, UV transmission and thermal insulation value. The choice of greenhouse roof also has an impact on pests, fungal and viral diseases, etc.

Safety glass

The standard glass used in greenhouses is 4.0mm thick and has a light transmission of about 90%. In most cases, safety glass or tempered glass is used. This type of glass is four to seven times stronger than ordinary glass.

Diffuse glass

Depending on the region where the greenhouse is built, it is also valuable to consider the use of diffuse glass. Diffuse glass affects the natural light in the greenhouse. It "scatters" direct sunlight and allows it to penetrate deeper into the room and between the plants.

In clear weather, by diffusing the sunlight in the greenhouse, it is possible to get more benefits from natural light. This helps to increase production and improve the quality of the final product.

Ways to obtain diffuse light in the greenhouse are:

Install diffuse glass

Treat the glass with a diffuse coating

Use a diffuse protective shield

We will be happy to advise you on the best solution for your situation.

Diffuse glass transmits less light than normal glass (a few percentage points less). If a higher light transmission is required, our coated glass can be used.

The diffuse glass and AR-coated diffuse glass produced by Yuhua have cooperated with many large commercial greenhouses in agriculture, horticulture, nurseries and experiments. We have cooperated with large greenhouse project companies such as Havecon, Van Der Hoeven, Kubo, etc. for many years. Yuhua greenhouse glass has a light transmittance of up to 99%, and haze 5/10/20/30/50/70/75 greenhouse diffuse glass is available!
