Phormium - Closed Shading Screens for Horticulture
Phormium provides closed shading screens designed for horticultural applications, delivering dual functionality. The Clima+ and PhormiTex Lumina diffuse shading screens prevent sunburn on the tops of plants while diffusing sunlight evenly, promoting higher and more consistent crop yields. These screens also create a favorable climate during hot summer days. The aluminum PH and PhormiTex screens offer exceptional energy-saving capabilities, with a high insulation capacity due to their woven structure and aluminum tapes, making them ideal for winter use to conserve energy. Designed as efficient night screens, they maximize energy conservation after sunset and open promptly after sunrise. All closed screens incorporate special acrylic yarn that attracts condensation droplets, transporting moisture to the upper side where it evaporates, aiding in moisture control and positively impacting the crop. The acrylic yarn network also facilitates humidity escape. For optimal results, Phormium recommends pairing these screens with the reinforced gable screen PHL 55.
Closed diffuse screens like Phormium’s Clima+ or PhormiTex Lumina shade the sunlight away in order to avoid burning of the top of the plants and make the light diffuse to a certain extent. This way, light is spread evenly over the crop resulting in higher and more constant crop yields over the complete area. This will create an agreeable climate on hot summer days.
The aluminum PH and PhormiTex screens have outstanding energy saving capacities. In wintertime temperatures will drop, so energy saving is important. The aluminum tapes and the woven structure assure high insulation and will allow higher energy saving than diffuse screens.
All closed screens contain a special acrylic yarn that will attract condensation droplets on the downside of the screen and transport the moisture to the upper side of the screen where it will evaporate. Excess moisture is easily transported which has a positive influence on the crop. Thanks the network of acrylic yarn in the screen, humidity will be able to escape through the screen.
