Antivirus 50 Mesh Net
Antivirus 50 Mesh Net Antivirus Net 50 Mesh protects the crop against Whitefly, Leaf Miner, Aphids, Thrips and other insects. The net prevents the penetration of insects into the structure, thereby protecting the crop.
This net ensures a better-quality crop and a better yield, with less spraying of chemicals required. It can be used in all stable structures in vegetable, herb and flower production.
Typically used in tomato crops in anti-insect houses in Israel, Spain, Mexico, Chile and other places.
SPECS:
Description: Insect control net 50 mesh
Material: 0.22mm stabilised HDPE monofilaments
(Made in Israel)
Widths: 4m and 5.2m
Structure: Mesh weaving, 50/25 inch, 20/10 cm
Colours & Shade: Transparent 24%, grey 40%
UV Block: 5 years
USAGES:
Vegetables and herbs such as tomatoes, cucumbers and chives.
Suitable for permanent, rigid structure types.
ADVANTAGES:
Protection against Whitefly, Thrips (partially) and other, larger pests.
Enables uniform and healthy growth over a long season.

BioNet™ 50 Mesh Net
Photo-Selective BioNet® net protects the crop in two ways:
1) the size of the hole is smaller than the insects, and
2) it is optic. The net has special additives that block some of the light in specific wave lengths. This causes the insects that penetrate through the structure to have less orientation in the field. Photo-Selective BioNet® net protects the crop against Whitefly, Leaf Miner, Aphids, Thrips, Mite and other insects. It ensures a better yield and a better-quality crop, with less spraying of chemicals required. This net can be used in all stable structures in vegetable, herb and flower production. Typically used in tomato, cucumber, pepper, chives, basil and other crops. Photo-Selective BioNet® is a worldwide patented breakthrough innovation in agriculture. Be careful of imitations! Only METEOR produces the authentic Photo-Selective BioNet®.

E 1115 Black / White Mulch Film
Mulch film is a protection cover over the soil, primarily to modify the effect of the local climate. The most powerful feature of
plastic mulch is the impact it has on light. Light is responsible for creating both – heat and colour.
Plastic mulch can impact the development of heat by increasing or decreasing it, depending on colour.
DURABILITY: 10 months

Thermal additives and IR
Thermal additives and IR:During the day, the greenhouse air heats up. At night when the outside temperature cools down, with regular cover there is loss of heat from the greenhouse by radiation towards the outside, and the greenhouse temperature is reduced by re-emitting radiation in the infrared range. To prevent this radiation loss, special additives are incorporated within the greenhouse
plastic film. These additives block the IR radiation and help maintain the temperature in the greenhouse, preventing frost and low temperature damage.
Anti-fog/Anti-drip
Hot air contains more moisture than cold air. At night, the temperature inside the greenhouse decreases, resulting in the water vapour condensing in the air to form small distinct droplets. The effect of fog formation:
– light transmission reduction with consequent reduction in growth.
– dripping on the plants causing diseases
In order to prevent these effects, special additives are added to modify the film surface so that the water droplets are spread into a continuous invisible water layer.
Light diffusion
Direct sunlight (undiffused light) can cause a “shadow” effect and “sun burns”. Light diffusing additives will scatter the direct light, thereby preventing the shadow effect and sun burns. The light diffusion increases the photosynthetic efficiency by providing
more homogeneous light from all directions. This is advantageous to crops with self-shading characteristics, such as cucumbers, tomatoes, squash, roses and others. The film is suitable for an area with high radiation.
Anti-virus
The human eye is sensitive to 400-700 nm, while insects are sensitive to a UV range of less than 400 nm. By blocking the UV range, insects
inside the greenhouses are less active. As a result, less agrochemicals are used. With red roses, UV blocking prevents the roses from blackening.
Anti-mist
Mist forms in a greenhouse when the temperature drops and the relative humidity reaches a saturation point.Mist has a negative impact on the plants, when the leaves are subjected to a thin moist layer. Mist blocks out the sun’s rays in the morning.
Anti-dust
The multi-layer construction and special polymers usage result in a smooth film that prevents dust accumulation on the outside. This is an important feature to ensure maximum light transmission and ease of film cleaning.
