Flame Retardant Ridder Sun Shading (RSS) Screens with aluminum strips combine high energy savings, superior cooling, and fire safety to meet the needs of growers in Europe, Canada, and the US. Their closed-structure design delivers energy savings of up to 68%, making them especially valuable in colder northern climates where a single, year-round screen is often used.
These screens provide superior cooling by reflecting sunlight, reducing heat absorption, and lowering greenhouse temperatures during hot conditions. The aluminum top layer on the screen acts as an effective sunlight reflector. The combination of high reflectivity and low convection is facilitated by the white underlayer of the flame-retardant aluminum film, which prevents the top air layer from warming, maintaining an optimal climate.
Open-structure models allow maximum airflow, making them ideal for tropical climates and compatible with roof ventilation, while closed models can be paired with active cooling systems to increase their effectiveness. Both versions offer shading of 55-75%, meaning that growers can select an appropriate screen for their crop and greenhouse situation.
Beyond temperature control, the flame retardant RSS screens improve crop quality and yield by regulating humidity, overall creating a stable climate. They prevent condensation during sudden temperature drops and maintain consistent humidity, which reduces disease risk and enhances plant health. The robust construction of the flame retardant RSS screens ensures long-term durability, maintaining high performance throughout the lifespan of the screens.
With their ability to reduce energy costs, enhance cooling, regulate moisture, and ensure crop stability, aluminum, flame retardant Ridder Sun Shading (RSS) Screens provide growers with a reliable, durable solution for year-round climate management.
