Customisation and Ordering:

Our clear plastic greenhouse panels come in various sizes and thicknesses. The maximum size for our twinwall polycarbonate panels are 6000 mm x 2100 mm, whereas our acrylic and polycarbonate greenhouse sheets are 3040 mm x 2040 mm. You can choose from a thickness between 2 mm and 10 mm; we can also calculate your plastic greenhouse panels in cm and m. For bespoke measurements, contact us for a quote.

Depending on the material, you can select various additional features. These include edge smoothness, corner radius, screws and holes, polish and cleaners, and adhesive.

If you are unsure of the material or thickness required, why not order a sample first? We offer a range of samples, including clear acrylic, coloured acrylic and solid polycarbonate.

Maintenance:

With seasonal maintenance and cleaning, your plastic greenhouse is guaranteed to last years. Find our top tips below:

Cleaning:

  • Use a soft cloth or sponge with mild soap and lukewarm water (avoid abrasive cleaners, brushes or high-pressure washers)
  • Rinse thoroughly with clean water
  • Ensure all soap is washed off to prevent streaks or dirt attraction
  • Allow to air dry or use a soft, lint-free cloth (avoid paper towels or rough cloths to prevent scratches)

Inspection and Maintenance:

  • Inspect panels regularly for damage, such as cracks or scratches
  • Check for loose screws, bolts and fittings to ensure structural security
  • Ensure protective UV coatings are intact
  • Replace panels or apply UV protectant if yellowing occurs
  • Check seals around panels for gaps where air or water can enter
  • Replace or repair damaged seals to maintain insulation and weatherproofing
  • Ensure the framework is in good condition
  • Tighten loose fittings and replace damaged components
  • Ensure ventilation systems are functioning correctly
  • Clean vents and fans for proper airflow

Special Care for Acrylic:

Avoid Solvents: Do not use acetone, benzene or ammonia-based cleaners

Scratch Removal: Polish out minor scratches with specialised acrylic polish or gently buff with a soft cloth

Special Care for Polycarbonate:

Avoid Abrasive Tools: Avoid using abrasive cleaning tools, such as rough cloths, sharp needle brushes and scouring pads

Protective Coating: Ensure protective coating remains intact and follow manufacturer guidelines for reapplication if necessary

Seasonal Preparation:

Winter:

  • Check heating systems to ensure they are functioning properly
  • Insulate water pipes to prevent freezing
  • Secure loose components and anchor the greenhouse to withstand storms
  • Monitor temperature and humidity levels inside the greenhouse

Summer:

  • Ensure shading systems are in good condition and functioning
  • Check that the irrigation system is working efficiently and increase watering
  • Inspect for pests and diseases; implement control measures
  • Regularly clean ventilation systems and check cooling systems are working properly

Spring:

  • Clean panels, vents and fans to remove winter debris
  • Inspect and repair any winter damage
  • Ensure proper airflow and install shading as needed
  • Prepare soil, plant new seeds and monitor humidity and temperature

Autumn:

  • Clean panels and clear gutters of debris
  • Check and repair any summer damage
  • Add insulation and seal gaps to prepare for cooler weather
  • Modify ventilation systems for cooler temperatures
  • Harvest mature plants and prepare sensitive species for winter

Compare Acrylic vs Polycarbonate vs Glass:

Feature Acrylic Polycarbonate Glass
Weight 50% lighter than glass 40% lighter than glass Heavier
Impact Resistance 17x stronger than glass 200x stronger than glass Less impact resistant
Light Transmission 92% 80-90% 80-90%
UV Protection Yes, with built-in UV filters Yes, often includes UV protection Limited
Thermal Insulation Good, maintains steady temperatures Excellent, especially with multi-wall panels Poor (high heat loss/gain)
Shatter Resistance High, less likely to break Very high, especially with multi-wall panels Low, can break easily
Yellowing Resists yellowing over time Generally resists yellowing Prone to yellowing with UV exposure
Maintenance Low-maintenance, resists streaks and scratches Low-maintenance, resists streaks and scratches High-maintenance, prone to streaks and scratches
Cost Moderate More cost-effective than acrylic Higher
Ease of Installation Easy, lighter and easier to handle Easy, lighter and easier to handle Requires more support and handling
Durability Durable but can be scratched Highly durable, can withstand severe conditions Durable but fragile
Energy Efficiency Good insulation, reduces heating/cooling costs Excellent insulation, more energy-efficient Poor insulation, higher heating/cooling costs
Environmental Impact Recyclable but production can be energy-intensive Recyclable, often considered more eco-friendly Recyclable but heavier and energy-intensive to produce
