Polytunnel Plastic

denismac

I just got all the bits and pieces to erect a polytunnel frame. The tunnel will be about 10ft x 15ft with each end covered also. I haven't got the cover yet as I'm not sure where to get the UV resistant stuff. I could just cover it with builders sheeting but it is not likely to last very long. I am wondering if anyone might point me in the right direction.

I bought a polytunnel complete with 5-7yr UV resistant plastic from Highbank Ltd, Kilkenny (www.highbankonline.com). 4.5m wide x 4.0 m long tunnel came with 9.2 x 9.0 m plastic.

Enjoy.

I dont know if they will supply the plastic on its own. It looks a bit pricey and a bit light anyway. I got the plans from the net that uses 2" piping and it appears to be a fairly strong structure.

Also Polydome.

All the tunnel suppliers will sell plastic on its own. I got tunnel from Polydome 8 yrs ago with 5 yr plastic. It is still on the tunnel and we'll certainly get this year maybe even next year before replacing the plastic.
