Agricultural Buyer & Farmer FAQs

How does UV-treated Spunbond fabric protect crops against weather and pests?

Spunbond crop cover fleece acts as a micro-porous climate screen. It creates a sheltered microclimate over crop beds, maintaining soil temperature 2°C to 4°C above ambient cold conditions, softening rainfall impact to prevent soil crusting, and physically barring insects, birds, and pests from reaching leaves and fruit bunches without suffocating the plants.

Does rainwater and air pass through the crop cover?

Yes. Because Spunbond non-woven fabric consists of an intertwined matrix of continuous micro-filaments rather than a solid plastic film, it allows rainwater, overhead irrigation spray, and air circulation to pass naturally without pooling or causing fungal mildew.

How long does Thusmaa agricultural Spunbond fabric last under open sun?

Our agricultural rolls are compounded with high-efficiency UV masterbatch formulations (HALS). Depending on the specified UV dosage and sunlight intensity, field life spans from a single crop cycle (6 months) up to 2 full growing seasons (18–24 months).

What widths are available for large farm fields?

We extrude rolls up to 3.2 meters width on our main production lines. For expansive farm plots and plantation beds, we provide custom ultrasonic welded wide-width sheets up to 6.4 meters and 12 meters, allowing farmers to cover multiple planting beds in a single pass.
