Polycarbonate (PC) is a high-strength, multi-layered panel material known for its exceptional thermal insulation. It is available in double-layer, triple-layer, and honeycomb structures, with double-layer and triple-layer panels being the most commonly used in greenhouse applications. These panels can be seamlessly integrated with multi-span greenhouse structures, whether featuring arched or peaked roofs, ensuring a secure and efficient covering solution.

The key advantages of this greenhouse type include superior hail and snow resistance along with excellent heat retention. However, it is important to note that PC panels’ light transmission gradually decreases over time, which should be factored into long-term greenhouse planning.

Polycarbonate greenhouses are particularly well-suited for large-scale agricultural operations in cold regions. During winter, when combined with supplementary heating systems, the high thermal efficiency of PC panels significantly reduces heat loss, lowering overall operating costs. This makes PC greenhouses an ideal solution for energy-efficient farming in high-latitude areas.
