Mulch Film

Description

As a leading mulch film manufacturer factory, we HGDNAgro utilize advanced 3-layer and 5-layer co-extrusion blow molding machines. This technology allows us to distribute raw materials evenly, ensuring the film is tough, flexible, and resistant to tearing during machine installation.

Features

• Pest Repellent: The silver upper side reflects sunlight, confusing and repelling pests like aphids and thrips.

• Weed Control: The black underside blocks visible light, effectively preventing weed growth and reducing herbicide costs.

• Moisture Retention: Significantly reduces water evaporation, saving irrigation costs by up to 30%.

FAQs for Mulch Film:

1. What raw materials are used in your mulch films, and how does this affect performance and durability?
   • We primarily utilize 100% virgin Low-Density Polyethylene (LDPE) and Linear Low-Density Polyethylene (LLDPE), often enhanced with metallocene for superior strength. Unlike recycled materials, virgin resins ensure consistent film integrity, optimal tensile strength (crucial for machine application), and predictable degradation patterns. This precise material blend, combined with advanced multi-layer co-extrusion technology, guarantees maximum resistance to tearing, punctures, and premature degradation, directly translating to higher yields and reduced labor for your end-users.
2. Can you produce mulch film in custom sizes, thicknesses, and colors? What are the limitations for customization? 
   • Absolutely. As a direct manufacturer, customization is our core competency. We regularly produce film in widths from 0.5m to 6m, thicknesses ranging from 15 to 100 microns, and specific lengths per roll up to 5000m. Beyond standard black, clear, or silver/black, we can develop custom color blends to meet unique light spectrum requirements. Our technical team works closely with you to understand the application (e.g., specific crop, soil type, climate) to advise on optimal specifications, ensuring the customized film performs precisely as intended without compromising structural integrity.
3. How do you ensure the consistent quality and performance of your mulch film batches?
   • Quality control is integrated into every stage of our ISO 9001 certified manufacturing process. We conduct rigorous incoming raw material inspections, followed by in-process monitoring of film thickness, width, and tension. Post-production, every batch undergoes comprehensive lab testing for tensile strength (MD/TD), elongation at break, dart impact resistance, and UV transmission/blocking rates according to ASTM or equivalent standards. We provide detailed QC reports for each shipment, guaranteeing that every roll meets your exact specifications and performance expectations.
4. Is your mulch film suitable for mechanized installation, and what specific features ensure smooth machine application?

   • Absolutely. Our mulch films are specifically engineered for high-speed, mechanized installation.

5. Do you offer biodegradable or compostable mulch film options, and what are their advantages and limitations??
   • Yes, we offer advanced biodegradable mulch films, typically made from PBAT, PLA, and other bio-based polymers, designed to naturally decompose in the soil after a specific period. The primary advantage is eliminating the need for film removal and disposal, significantly reducing labor costs and environmental impact.
