Pearly MINI Series
Diffused and Cool – Solar selective wavelength penetration.
Soft Diffused Lighting – Filters unwanted wavelengths, retaining cool, diffused GREEN light.
Controlled FIR and NIR – Reduce temperatures by max. 10°C or 50°F.
Weathering Resistant – Avient UV and Light Stabilizers for extra durability and longevity.
Extra light diffusion + High Haze + Balanced light.
VULCAN Polycarbonate Corrugated MINI (32/9) Profile
VULCAN MINI (32/9) Polycarbonate sheet has the shortest depth (9mm) and width (32mm) of all VULCAN corrugated profiles.
The closely-knit corrugations offer unique reflection and refraction properties, creating a lighting environment suitable for greenhouse plants, especially flowers, which makes VULCAN MINI profile the best choice for areas with advanced agricultural needs.
Product Overview
Pearly GREEN
VULCAN Pearly GREEN has been designed as a solar heat protection application that attenuates longer wavelength heat-producing infrared radiation very effectively through reflection, but at the same time, allowing a high percentage of cool, diffused GREEN light to pass through.
Pearly GREEN have particle sizes in the range of 10~60μm, and is suitable for general-purpose infrared blocking applications.
Pearly GREEN reflects rather than absorbs heat producing far-red solar radiation without affecting the transmittance of the GREEN spectrum, and retains cool, diffused GREEN light.
