Plastic-film greenhouses are prevailing in most of the mild climate regions
In addition to the general demands on plastic-film greenhouses, influences on the greenhouse contruction are existing, which are dependant on the climate conditions in the different climate regions.
Ventilation, humidity control, light transmissivity, heating, cooling aud the collection of rain water for irrigation are functions of climatization, which are dependant on the greenhouse construction.
The plastic-film greenhouses have developed themselves in many countries according to the national traditions.
