Catalogue: Section Section 8: Miscellaneous: Mylar

Light is precious and you will want to maximise usable light from your grow lights. One excellent way of doing this is to use reflective sheeting. As a rule of thumb, use reflective sheeting wherever you can. Any investment in reflective sheeting allows stray light to be redirected towards your plants. This is especially important in a small grow room. Plant growth is nearly linear with light intensity and installation of reflective sheeting will increase the light intensity. Additionally, increasing the efficiency of your hydroponic system will save money in the long term. In some cases, it may also reduce initial costs. Many people over estimate the effectiveness of aluminium foil in reflecting light. Mylar will reflect back over 95% light. Our new, space age reflector agro mylar reflects 97% light. We also offer a long life mylar, which is flame retardant and is backed with a white plastic for durability and to prevent any creasing. Our black / white sheeting is thicker grade than can be found elsewhere for durability and longer life. Black / white is sold in two metre widths and in any length. Mylar is sold in 1.4 metre widths and any length.
