Tufflite 1-Year Nursery Film - 3mil - 24ft x 150ft - White 70%

Season Extension and Plant Protection with Tufflite 1-Year Nursery Film - 3mil 24ft x 150ft White 70%

Tufflite 1-Year Nursery Film is a tri-layer polyethylene covering specifically designed for nurseries, high tunnels, and seasonal greenhouse structures. Its UV protection and anti-dust additive work together to maintain optical clarity and ensure durable performance throughout the growing season. The White 70% formulation creates a stable, well-lit growing environment that reduces disease pressure, moderates temperature extremes, and protects crops from pests, rain, and wind. Lightweight yet robust, Tufflite is easy to install and maintain - providing an efficient, cost-effective solution for operations that need reliable seasonal protection year after year.

Key Features & Benefits

• Tri-Layer Polyethylene Construction: Multi-layer extrusion process creates a film with improved mechanical strength, tear resistance, and durability compared to single-layer alternatives of equivalent thickness.
• UV Protection: Built-in UV stabilizers protect the film from solar degradation throughout the 1-year service life, maintaining structural integrity and optical performance across the full growing season.
• Anti-Dust Additive: Reduces dust accumulation on the film surface, helping to maintain higher light transmission throughout the season and extending the period between cleaning intervals.
• White 70% Diffusion: The white 70% formulation provides approximately 70% light transmission with a diffused quality that reduces direct shadowing, creates more even light distribution, and helps moderate temperature extremes within the structure.
• Pest, Rain, and Wind Resistance: Creates a physical barrier that protects crops from pest infiltration, excessive moisture, and wind damage - reducing disease pressure and chemical use.
• Easy Installation: Lightweight 3mil construction simplifies handling and installation on high tunnels, low tunnels, and seasonal greenhouse structures.

Who Should Use This

Tufflite 1-Year Nursery Film is the right choice for nursery operators, market growers, and seasonal greenhouse operations that need a reliable, cost-effective covering for high tunnels and seasonal structures. The White 70% formulation is well suited for crops that benefit from diffused light and moderate shade, and its ease of installation makes it practical for structures that are set up and taken down seasonally.

Compatibility

Suitable for standard nursery, high tunnel, and seasonal greenhouse frame systems. Compatible with common poly attachment hardware including wiggle wire, channel, and batten tape systems. Dimensions: 24ft W x 150ft L. Service Life: 1-Year. The white 70% formulation is not intended as a replacement for long-term greenhouse poly covering on permanent structures - see SUPER4 4-Year Greenhouse Film for multi-year permanent applications.

Frequently Asked Questions

What does "White 70%" mean for this nursery film?

White 70% refers to the film's light transmission level and diffusion characteristics. The white opaque finish transmits approximately 70% of available light while diffusing it, reducing harsh direct sunlight and shadow patterns. This creates a more even light environment within the structure and helps moderate interior temperatures compared to clear film at the same transmission level.

How does the anti-dust additive help performance?

Dust accumulation on greenhouse and nursery film reduces light transmission over time and requires more frequent cleaning to maintain performance. The anti-dust additive in Tufflite reduces the rate at which dust and airborne particles bond to the film surface, helping to preserve higher light levels with less maintenance throughout the season.

Is this film reusable for more than one season?

Tufflite 1-Year Nursery Film is rated for a 1-year service life. While the film may remain physically intact beyond one season, its UV stabilizers and optical properties are designed for one growing season. For multi-year applications, Berry Global's SUPER4 or other longer-rated films are more appropriate choices.

What types of structures is Tufflite suitable for?

Tufflite 1-Year Nursery Film is well suited for high tunnels, low tunnels, caterpillar tunnels, seasonal greenhouses, and temporary nursery structures. It is ideal for operations that install and remove covering structures seasonally and need a dependable, cost-effective film for each new season.
