Silver On Black Agricultural Mulch Film Biodegradable Plastic Ground Cover To Kill Weeds
Silver On Black Mulch Film Agricultural Mulch Film Manufacturer
Product description:
Silver-black mulch film is a multi-layer co-extruded PE functional two-color agricultural film. Its standard structure is silver on top and black on the bottom. When laid, the silver side faces the sky, and the black side is in close contact with the soil.
One side of the film is coated with highly reflective silver masterbatch, and the other side with high-shading carbon black masterbatch, combining the two core functions of reflective insect repellent and shading weed control into one. Distinguished from ordinary white or pure black mulch film, it is a multi-functional mulch film specifically designed for fruits, vegetables, and cash crops.

Advantages:
I.Silver Surface Layer (Upward) Functions
1. Physically repels pests and reduces viral diseases.
High reflectivity (85%~98%) reflects ultraviolet and blue-violet light, interfering with pests' vision and preventing them from landing to lay eggs, thus reducing pesticide use.
2. Provides supplemental lighting at the bottom, resulting in even fruit coloring.
Reflects sunlight to the lower leaves and the back of the fruit, eliminating uneven coloring on the fruit, resulting in more even coloring and higher sugar content in grapes, strawberries, and watermelons, increasing the marketable fruit rate.
3. Cools the soil in summer and prevents excessive vegetative growth.
Reflection reduces surface heat absorption, keeping the soil temperature 5~10℃ lower than with transparent mulch in summer, preventing root burn and excessive vegetative growth.
II. Black Bottom Layer (Fall-to-the-Ground) Functions
1. Provides complete shading and strong weed suppression.
Nearly 100% shading rate blocks weed photosynthesis, resulting in almost no weed growth, saving on manual weeding and herbicide costs, making it the first choice for green planting.
2. Retains water and fertilizer and prevents soil compaction.
It prevents soil moisture evaporation, saving 30%~40% of water; reduces rainwater erosion, prevents soil nutrient loss and surface compaction, and maintains loose and breathable soil.
3. Balanced temperature control.
In winter and spring, it slightly increases soil temperature by 2~3℃ to promote early seedling emergence; in summer, it inhibits sudden increases in soil temperature, ensuring a stable environment for root growth.
Product Application:
1. Fruits and Vegetables (Most Applicable):
High-quality fruits such as strawberries, watermelons, cantaloupes, honeydew melons, blueberries, grapes, kiwis, peaches, and cherries; solves problems such as poor coloring, aphid infestations, and rampant weeds, significantly improving the appearance of the fruits.
2. Solanaceous Vegetables (Greenhouse/Open Field Summer/Autumn Crops):
Tomatoes, peppers, bell peppers, eggplants, and cucumbers; these crops are highly susceptible to whiteflies and aphids. The silver-black film can significantly reduce viral diseases and decrease the frequency of pesticide application.
3. Horticulture and Seedling Cultivation:
Flowers, potted seedlings, and young fruit trees; reflects light to strengthen seedlings, suppresses weeds between rows, and reduces nursery management labor.
