Garden tunnel film Springos GT0009F 4.5 x 2 x 2 m, 140 g/m² polyethylene, 0.4 mm, 8 mesh windows, 2 zip doors

Springos GT0009F 4.5 x 2 x 2 m garden tunnel film is a polyethylene cover designed to fit a medium-sized tunnel frame. The cover is made of 100% polyethylene foil with an embedded polypropylene mesh, weighing 140 g/m² and 0.4 mm thick. Its transparent and white-green checked surface provides light transmission while offering UV protection index 4. The film includes eight 37 x 37 cm windows with mosquito nets, two zippered roll-up doors (175 x 100 cm) secured with Velcro straps, and a ground collar for burying to improve wind resistance and thermal retention.

Advantages

The cover combines a relatively heavy-duty foil weight with a 0.4 mm thickness to balance durability and flexibility. The embedded polypropylene mesh with a 1 x 1 cm grid increases tear resistance and helps maintain structural integrity. Integrated mosquito-net windows and two zippered roll-up doors provide ventilation control and insect protection without the need for additional fittings. The ground collar and closure options reduce drafts and simplify attachment to tunnel frames.

Suitable for

• Protecting vegetable beds and seedlings from pests and light frost
• Extending the growing season for herbs, salad greens and young plants
• Creating a ventilated microclimate for delicate crops with insect protection
• Temporary field covers where easy access with zip doors is required

How to use

Place the Springos GT0009F film over a compatible tunnel frame sized approximately 4.5 x 2 x 2 m, ensuring the film’s length aligns with the frame. Bury the ground collar along the edges to fix the cover and reduce draughts. Fasten the film to structural pipes using the provided straps; adjust strap lengths as needed for a snug fit. Open the roll-up doors by unzipping and secure them with the Velcro straps when ventilation or access is required. Use the mosquito-net windows to allow airflow while preventing insect entry.

Usage recommendations

For longevity, avoid sharp tension points and trim protruding frame edges that could abrade the foil. Regularly check zippers and Velcro straps for debris and clean gently to maintain smooth operation. In strong winds, increase anchoring along the ground collar and consider additional ties to the frame. Store the film dry and rolled when not in use to reduce UV degradation.
