At Ombre Interieur, we select UV-resistant and tear-resistant materials, ensuring enhanced durability even in outdoor conditions. Explore our selection to find the perfect cloth for your greenhouse.

Why Choose a Greenhouse Shade Cloth?

A greenhouse shade cloth is not just an accessory: it is a climate management tool. In summer, it reduces indoor temperature by 5 to 10°C, limiting heat stress. In winter, it can be removed to maximize light. Concrete benefits include:

• UV Protection: Filters harmful rays while allowing the diffuse light necessary for photosynthesis to pass through.
• Reduced Evaporation: Maintains soil moisture, reducing watering needs by 20 to 30%.
• Versatility: Adapts to all types of greenhouses (tunnel, glass, polycarbonate) thanks to included fastenings (eyelets, clips).
• Durability: Anti-UV treated fabrics with a lifespan of 3 to 5 years depending on the model.

Whether you have a small garden greenhouse or a professional structure, our collection offers standard dimensions (2x3m, 3x5m, 4x6m) and custom sizes.

How to Choose Your Greenhouse Shade Cloth?

1. The Shade Rate Suitable for Your Plants

The shade percentage determines the amount of filtered light. Here are our recommendations:

• 30% to 40%: Ideal for leafy vegetables (lettuce, spinach) and light-shade plants.
• 50% to 60%: Perfect for tomatoes, cucumbers, peppers, and Mediterranean plants.
• 70% to 90%: For orchids, ferns, and delicate seedlings requiring dense shade.

Our collection includes cloths with honeycomb or tightly woven patterns for a balance between shade and ventilation.

2. The Material: Polypropylene vs Polyester

Each material offers specific advantages:

• Polypropylene (PP): Lightweight, moisture-resistant, and economical. Ideal for temporary or seasonal greenhouses.
• PVC-coated Polyester: Heavier, highly tear-resistant and UV-resistant. Recommended for permanent installations.

All our cloths are washable and easy to install. Choose a model with reinforced eyelets for quick attachment to your structure.

Installation and Maintenance Tips

To maximize the efficiency of your greenhouse shade cloth, follow these tips:

• Installation: Attach the cloth to the outside of the greenhouse to block heat before it enters. Use tensioners or bungee cords to prevent water pockets.
• Maintenance: Clean with clear water once per season to remove dust and debris. Store away from moisture in winter.
• Rotation: Alternate shading according to seasons (remove in autumn to maximize light).

For large greenhouses, consider layering two cloths of different densities for adjustable control.
