DYNAGLAS® Condensation Control Corrugated Polycarbonate

Built-in condensation control for horticultural applications

Polycarbonate is inherently susceptible to condensate formation, especially when used to cover totally enclosed environments like greenhouses. DYNAGLAS is made with an exclusive manufacturing process that results in the industry's first and most extensive 10-year condensate control warranty. Because effective condensate control is such a critical need for your greenhouse efficiencies, it's now built into every DYNAGLAS product. Test results prove DYNAGLAS transmits up to 30% more PAR light and 45% more infrared energy during condensation formation periods, while reducing the potential for moisture-related disease.

 

DYNAGLAS also offers high impact resistance and 99.9% UV blocking. It's available in multiple tints, including Clear, White/Opal, Solar/Grey, and SolarSoft™. Palram’s SolarSoft technology provides high light transmission while eliminating shadows and reducing unwanted solar heat gain. As light transmits through the sheet, the SolarSoft special pigments diffuse the light so that it spreads in many directions. This allows more evenly dispersed light throughout the greenhouse and less stress caused by direct sunlight, resulting in an ideal growth environment.

GREENHOUSE COVERING FOR OPTIMAL DLI

DYNAGLAS refracts light at low angles of incidence, reduces reflection, and facilitates more light penetration into the greenhouse than any other material.

The corrugated profile is especially efficient at N45º-N55º latitudes, where during the five critical months between November and March, the sun shines most of the day at low angles of 15º-25º to the horizon.

DYNAGLAS offers high UV protection, which helps maintain a high level of light transmittance. In fact, it loses less than 2% light transmittance over a 20-year-period.

DYNAGLAS SolarSoft™ MAX, with 90% light transmission and 90% diffusion, offers the highest Daily Light Integral (DLI) in the industry!
