Shading fabrics
Certain plants (e.g. half-shade plants) are subject to rigorous demands in terms of light and watering. Depending on their location and the cultivated plant species, greenhouses sometimes require shading measures. In response to these needs, HUESKER supplies state-of-the-art screens, made from fine-meshed, high-strength polyester fabrics, which have been successfully used in greenhouses for many years. By selecting an appropriate colour of fabric various light transparencies are possible so that optimum light distribution can be achieved. Furthermore, not only a positive influence on energy savings is generated by the good climatic conditions inside the greenhouse, but also the emission of CO2 will be reduced. The superior flame protection (B1, Class 1) corresponds to all legal requirements for greenhouses and garden centres.

Black-Out Fabric
Based on the latest innovation programmes, particularly the saving of energy is set as a focus and funded accordingly. You support this trend sustainably by employing the quality fabrics from HUESKER. When installing UmbraTex® Blackout, you save approx. 50 % of your energy while fulfilling all legal requirements regarding fire protection and light pollution through artificial lights in greenhouses.
