Thermal and insect screens are essential tools for any commercial glasshouse aiming to optimise growing conditions, reduce operational costs, and safeguard plant health.  At Commercial Glasshouse Contracts Ltd, we supply and install high-performance screen systems tailored to your specific structure and growing requirements.

Thermal Screens are retractable fabric systems that help regulate temperature inside the glasshouse.  These energy-saving screens reduce heat loss during colder months and provide shading during summer, maintaining a consistent climate for crops.

Insect Screens are fine mesh barriers fitted to vents, windows, and doors to prevent pests entering, while allowing for natural airflow.  They’re a critical line of defence in integrated pest management (IPM) strategies.

The Key Benefits of Thermal Screens:

– Lower Energy Costs – Reduce heating demand in winter and cut cooling requirements in summer
– Improved Climate Stability – Maintain consistent temperatures and humidity levels
– Light Diffusion – Enhance photosynthesis by evenly distributing sunlight
– Crop Protection – Reduce plant stress from excessive heat or light exposure
– Automation Compatible – Easily integrated into existing climate control systems

Key Benefits of Insect Screens:

– Pest Prevention – Stop common threats such as whitefly, aphids and thrips from entering your glasshouse
– Improved Air Quality – Allow natural ventilation while filtering dust and debris
– Custom Fitting – Suitable for roof vents, louvres, gables, and doors
