GREENHOUSE COVERINGS

Protect your investment with quality covering materials designed for Canadian climates. From economical polyethylene film to premium polycarbonate panels, OMNI provides the covering solutions you need to maintain optimal growing environments year-round.

Premium Covering & Film Materials

The right covering material makes all the difference in greenhouse performance, energy efficiency, and crop success. OMNI offers a range of premium greenhouse coverings designed to withstand Canadian weather conditions while providing optimal light transmission and thermal performance for your growing operation.

Whether you’re covering a new greenhouse structure, replacing aging materials, or upgrading to more efficient coverings, OMNI works with Canadian growers to provide the right covering solution. Our materials are UV-protected to block harmful ultraviolet rays, preventing damage to both the covering and your plants while ensuring years of reliable performance.

Based in Vineland, Ontario, OMNI serves customers throughout Canada from coast to coast—and also supports growers in the United States. As part of the Paul Boers Manufacturing family since our 1988 founding, we combine decades of industry experience with access to quality covering materials at competitive pricing.

Choosing the right material

Greenhouse Coverings

Climate & Season

Canadian growers face diverse climate conditions. Polyethylene film works well for seasonal operations and milder climates, while polycarbonate panels excel in harsh winter conditions and year-round growing requiring maximum insulation.

Budget & Longevity

Polyethylene film offers the lowest initial cost but requires more frequent replacement. Reinforced poly provides better durability at moderate cost. Polycarbonate panels represent higher upfront investment but deliver longest lifespan and best energy efficiency.

Frequently Asked Questions

What's the difference between standard and reinforced polyethylene film?

Standard polyethylene film is economical and works well for most applications. Reinforced poly film incorporates strengthening material that provides exceptional puncture and tear resistance—ideal for high-traffic areas, windy locations, or operations needing maximum durability. Reinforced film typically lasts longer than standard film.

How long do greenhouse coverings last in Canadian climates?

Lifespan varies by material and conditions. UV-protected polyethylene film typically lasts 4-6 years. Reinforced poly film often lasts longer. Twinwall polycarbonate panels can last 10-20+ years with proper maintenance. Harsh weather, snow loads, and UV exposure affect all covering materials over time.

Can I order custom sizes for covering materials?

Yes. Custom lengths are available for polyethylene film upon request. Reinforced poly film offers custom sizing (800 sq ft minimum). Polycarbonate panels are available in standard sizes, and minimum orders may apply. Contact OMNI to discuss your specific size requirements.

Which coverings are the most energy-efficient for Canadian winters?

Twinwall polycarbonate panels provide the best thermal insulation, making them most energy-efficient for Canadian winter conditions. The 8mm twinwall construction significantly reduces heat loss compared to single-layer film, lowering heating costs for year-round operations.

Do materials come with UV protection?

Yes. OMNI’s polyethylene films are UV-protected to block harmful ultraviolet rays, extending material lifespan and protecting plants. Polycarbonate panels inherently resist UV degradation and include UV protection to prevent yellowing and maintain light transmission over many years.
