Furthermore, the nano-scale fine particles of the film strip additives ensure sufficient and even transmission of visible light,” says Zoe Zhang, general manager at Yongor.Ī testing experiment between Yongor’s SI 30H screen and four other types of screens, some aluminum (insulation)screen and film (insulation) screens, has been entrusted by Yongor to a third-party testing institution. “Yongor’s newest SI 30H screen has made a breakthrough by adding nano-scale modified materials to the transparent film, which could block the infrared part of the light in a high proportion and obviously slow down the indoor temperature rise (change). This is especially true for some models with a high shading rate that has a higher blocking of visible light, which may cause insufficient and uneven light to the plants. However, the opaque part of the combined structure of these film strips not only blocks the transmission of infrared rays but also blocks the transmission of visible light. ![]() They work by adjusting the light transmission through the adjustment of the arrangement ratio of the opaque part (the aluminum film strip, the opaque film strip) and the light-transmitting part (the opening of the transparent film strip) of the thermal screen to reduce or maintain the indoor temperature. The widely used aluminum screen and film screen function well in cooling (insulation). This is where Yongor steps in with their newest SI 30H screen. Appropriate temperature and light are key factors in ensuring the healthy growth of plants, but in many cases, the light is insufficient and needs to be supplemented.
