Polycarbonate Greenhouse Roofs
iyris TM SecondSky TM Poly carbonate Greenhouse Roofs are available with up to 80% peak heat absorption properties, but will still deliver a 25% increase in daily light integral for your crop due to reduced shade screen deployment requirements. It is available in all standard thicknesses, quality and width configurations and can be installed in the same way as standard polycarbonate roofs. It is also no different in thermal insulation or durability of other polycarbonate roofs. They also feature a unique anti drip technology.
Beat the heat
iyrisTM SecondSkyTM Polycarbonate Roofs will provide up to a 7oC reduction in peak temperatures inside your greenhouse.
Bespoke solutions
Our polycarbonate roofs are available in a range of grades that offer different heat-blocking properties, meaning you can find the perfect solution for your crop.
Grow your profits
By cooling the greenhouse, yet letting in more light, you spend less on cooling and water but will see greater yields from your crops.
Key Benefits
iyrisTM SecondSkyTM Polycarbonate can transform your growing with one simple change.
By switching to iyrisTM, you will cut the peak temperature in your greenhouse and this delivers a range of benefits to the grower.
The lower temperatures significantly reduce energy and water requirements for cooling systems, you can scale back on crop inputs, it reduces transpiration and chalking requirements and helps to improve yields.
Most importantly, you can extend your growing season into the hotter months, enabling you to get even more from your crop.
