Product Description
EVA ALCUDIA® CA-1321A is stabilized with HALS (colorless), UV absorber and antioxidants. It contains medium and long wave IR absorber. The main properties of these compound films are high light diffusion and heat retention.
Applications include films for small tunnels and mulching.
ALCUDIA® CA-1321A 40µm and 75µm thickness films are respectively recommended for special mulching and strawberry small tunnels.
