Crops we cover

Application by crop type

Tomato & capsicum

17–19 GSM nursery cover for frost-prone nights.

Strawberry

17 GSM floating row to protect flowers and fruit.

Leafy greens

17 GSM cover keeps insects out and weather stable.

Orchard floor

23 GSM black for weed suppression in apple/grape orchards.

Grade selection

Choosing the right crop cover grade

Pick the lightest grade your site allows: heavier GSM holds more heat but lets less light through. For crop-by-crop low-tunnel advice, see our UV crop cover guide.

Frost-prone nights

17–19 GSM white over nursery beds and tomato or capsicum seedlings. The cover holds a 2–3°C lift over ambient.

Windy regions

23 GSM white for exposed fields.

Season length

The standard grade lasts one crop season in north Indian conditions. For two seasons, ask for higher UV loading — see UV-treated agriculture fabric.

Bed or tunnel width

Choose 160, 240 or 320 cm to cover each bed in one piece. Wider rolls mean fewer field joints and faster laying.

Colour

White over growing crops. Black only for orchard-floor weed control, where blocking light is the goal.

Laying

Leave slack over the row so the cover lifts as plants grow, then bury or peg the edges.

Buyer FAQ

Crop cover: buyer questions

What GSM crop cover should I buy?

17 GSM for floating row cover on strawberry and leafy greens, 19 GSM for general use and 23 GSM for windy regions. Heavier GSM holds more heat but lets less light through, so choose the lightest grade your site allows.

How long does UV-stabilised crop cover last?

The standard grade is UV-stabilised for one crop season in north Indian conditions, about 600 kLy of solar exposure. If one cover must serve two seasons, ask for higher UV loading when you order.

Which widths and roll lengths are available?

160 cm, 240 cm and 320 cm widths, in 250 m or 500 m rolls, jute-wrap packed. Other widths and roll lengths are available on request for large farms and greenhouse projects.

Does crop cover protect against frost?

Yes. On frost-prone nights the cover holds a 2–3°C lift over ambient, while air and rain still pass through. Use 17–19 GSM over nursery beds and tomato or capsicum seedlings.

How is non-woven crop cover different from plastic film?

Non-woven crop cover breathes. Air, rain and irrigation water pass through, and it avoids the condensation that builds up under plastic film. It also shields crops from frost, insects and hail.

What is the MOQ, and when should we order?

500 kg per GSM and colour. Book 2–3 months before sowing, so there is time to trial a sample, confirm GSM and width, and receive rolls before the first frost-prone nights.
