CFGET Greenhouse Structure
Greenhouse structures evolved from arch and peaked roofs to meet crop and climate needs, improving efficiency and control.
🌱 Multi-span Film Greenhouse Introduction
The Multi-span Film Greenhouse is a cost-effective, highly adaptable structure composed of multiple connected spans, providing a large and continuous growing space. Covered with PE/PO plastic film, it offers high light transmission, excellent insulation, and affordability, making it ideal for vegetables, fruits, flowers, and seedlings.
Compared to traditional single-span greenhouses, the multi-span film greenhouse has greater structural stability and enhanced resistance to wind and snow loads. It can be equipped with automated ventilation, cooling, heating, and irrigation systems, ensuring optimal climate control. Widely used in modern agricultural bases, large-scale farms, and smart greenhouse projects, it delivers high yield, efficiency, and energy savings, making it a preferred choice for professional growers.
Structural Advantages
✅ Enhanced Structural Stability
✅ Higher Land Utilization Efficiency
✅ Superior Climate Control
✅ Supports Mechanized Operations
💡CFGET
The multi-span greenhouse is the most commonly used structure for large-scale agricultural production. Its key feature is the modular arrangement and connection system, typically assembled using fasteners or steel structures to create a continuous, large growing area.
“Multi-span” refers to the structural arrangement rather than a specific greenhouse type. By integrating different structural designs and covering materials, multi-span greenhouses can serve various functional purposes. Compared to single-span greenhouses, multi-span structures offer greater operational flexibility, centralized management, and compatibility with mechanized farming, such as small-scale automated equipment, irrigation systems, and climate control technologies, improving overall production efficiency.
In this context, we specifically refer to multi-span greenhouses with an arched structure covered by plastic film. If other covering materials are used (such as glass or polycarbonate panels), even with a multi-span layout, they are classified under distinct greenhouse types, such as Venlo Greenhouses or Polycarbonate Greenhouses.

✅ 10 Simple FAQ for Multi-Span Greenhouse
A multi-span greenhouse is a large greenhouse made by connecting several spans in one continuous roof structure.
A commercial multi-span greenhouse gives you more space, better use of land, and easier climate control inside.
Vegetables, fruits, flowers, seedlings and high-value crops all grow well in a multi-span greenhouse because of its space and controlled conditions.
Big clear span space
Easier to manage climate, irrigation and lighting
More cost-effective for big farms
The frame is strong galvanized steel, and the cover can be film, PC sheet or glass depending on budget and local climate.
It depends on size, design and systems. Usually it takes a few weeks to a few months from start to finish.
You should know:
Your land size & layout
Local climate (wind, snow, sun)
What crop you want to grow
Your budget and system needs
Yes. With proper design it can handle wind, snow, heat and cold in many regions around the world.
Cost varies with size, materials and systems. Returns depend on crop value and management. With good setup you can see pay-back in a few years.
The steel frame can last many years. Covers like film might need replacing every few years; glass or PC sheet last longer. Regular maintenance keeps it in good shape.
