Ground Cover Films
Our co-extruded film boasts exceptional mechanical properties, making it ideal for use in greenhouses, glasshouses, or open field applications. With a maximum width of 5 meters, it can be laid over the entire cultivation area to provide excellent insulation, reducing the risk of soil-borne diseases spreading from one greenhouse to another due to foot traffic.
The bi-color version of the film offers high sunlight reflection, promoting optimal photosynthesis activity in plants. It is also designed to withstand its expected lifetime and resist foot traffic, ensuring long-lasting and effective use.
Our co-extruded film is commonly referred to as ground cover plastic, ground plastic film, or reflective film.
Black Ground Cover Film
Black ground covers is a Polyethylene film manufactured in co-extrusion technology.
It constitutes an opaque layer that blocks the light transmission through the film.
The black color plays a role of natural heater by retaining maximum sunrays received during the day and transmitting it to the soil or to the upper area, to increase the ambient temperature and provide an optimized environment for the best plant growth.
Benefits
Limit the soil pathogens contamination from the greenhouse to another through foot traffic
Limit weeds germination
Prohibit soil erosion
Create good isolation to control root zone temperature
Applications
Recommended in countries with short day light hours
- Hydroponic/soilless cultivation
- High foliage crops
- Fruits, flowers & vegetables

White Black Ground Cover Film
White Black Ground Covers is a Polyethylene film Manufactured in co-extrusion technology.
The upper white color layer reflects the sunrays received during the day, while the lower black side constitutes an opaque layer that blocks the light transmission through the film.
This combination of features orients the total plant parts development in an optimized environment.
Benefits
Increase the photosynthesis activity of the plant
Limit soil hear up due to the reflective white layer
Limit soil pathogens contamination from the greenhouse to another through foot traffic
Limit weed germination with opaque layer
Prohibit soil erosion
Withstand foot traffic
NB: Silver layer option replacing the white layer is available when the application needed to repels harmful insects.
Applications
Recommended for:
- Hydroponic/soilless cultivation
- High foliage crops
- Fruits, flowers & vegetables
