Greenhouse and Agricultural Film Resin (mLLDPE)
Metallocene LLDPE for greenhouse covers, tunnel film and mulch film.
Agricultural film works outdoors for a full season. BASTONE supplies metallocene LLDPE from PetroChina Dushanzi for blown greenhouse, tunnel and mulch film, and anti-fog and weather-resistant masterbatch to match.
Common Problems in Agricultural Film
What buyers ask us about, and the grades that solve it.
Film that tears before the season ends
Wind, snow load and handling pull on thin film. Metallocene LLDPE with a tight molecular weight distribution gives consistent mechanical performance.
Recommended grades
Sun damage and brittleness
UV and heat age film over the season. Weather-resistant masterbatch protects colour and mechanical properties.
Recommended grades
Condensation dripping on the crop
Droplets scatter light and wet the leaves. Anti-fog masterbatch suppresses droplet formation on PE film.

Which resin is used for greenhouse film?
EZP2010HA and EZP2005H are metallocene LLDPE grades listed for greenhouse covering, tunnel and mulch film. EZP2005H states a melt flow rate of 0.5 g/10 min and a density of 0.920 g/cm³.
Why does greenhouse film need anti-fog additive?
Warm, humid air condenses on cold film. Droplets reduce light transmission and fall on the crop. Anti-fog masterbatch at 3 to 15 percent loading suppresses droplet formation.
How long does agricultural film last outdoors?
Life depends on thickness, stabilizer package and climate. Ask BASTONE for the datasheet and the aging test conditions of the weather-resistant masterbatch.
