GGPO® Clear Film FL690H 150 MICRONS
FL690H is a flagship 150μm (6 mil) 5-layer co-extruded film belonging to the premium GGPO® Greenhouse Film. Designed as a 3rd-generation high-performance cover, FL690H combines super-clear direct light transmission with an ultra-durable inner coating that delivers long-lasting anti-drip and anti-fog protection. Engineered to perform reliably as a standard commercial covering in most global regions, it provides maximum PAR light penetration while safeguarding crops against dust, algae, and harsh agricultural chemicals.
Key Performance Benefits
-
Super Clear Direct Light: Delivers up to 91% light transmission, providing direct PAR light ideal for high-light-demanding crops and high-latitude, low-sunlight regions.
-
Super Long Anti-Drip & Anti-Fog: Features a durable internal coating layer that prevents water droplet condensation, reducing crop disease risks and maintaining optical clarity.
-
Bee-Friendly & UV-Open Technology: Formulated with a UV-open structure that allows essential natural light spectrums to pass, encouraging natural bee pollination and promoting vibrant crop pigmentation.
-
High Chemical & Environmental Resistance: Built with advanced UV stabilizers and high pesticide resistance to prevent premature film breakdown in heavily treated commercial setups.
-
Dust & Algae Resistance: Specialized surface properties prevent dust accumulation and algae growth, maintaining peak light levels throughout the film's service life.

Recommended Crops and Applications
FL690H is specifically optimized for high-wire commercial crops, cut flowers, and regional installations requiring unhindered light intake:
-
Fruiting Vegetables: High-wire tomatoes, peppers, cucumbers, and melons.
-
Floriculture: Roses, carnations, and high-value flowering plants.
-
Geographic Regions: Ideal for high-latitude regions with low sunlight exposure, as well as a dependable, standard clear greenhouse film for general worldwide climates.
How This Model Compares
Compared to standard 3-layer films or light-diffusing models like TTPE® Diffusion Films, the FL690H prioritizes maximum direct light penetration (91% PAR) for light-starved environments. While 150μm films provide standard multi-year durability, high-load snow or wind zones may benefit from heavier-gauge versions or reinforced alternatives like TOYOTANI® Woven Fabric Film.
Quality Control and Test Documentation
Manufactured under strict ISO-certified quality protocols, every roll of FL690H undergoes rigorous laboratory verification before shipment:
-
Optical spectrophotometer analysis for guaranteed 91% light transmission.
-
Dart-drop impact and 26 MPa tensile strain testing to verify mechanical resilience.
-
Every order is supplied with a certified Technical Data Sheet (TDS) and quality inspection report.
Installation and Correct-Side Orientation
To ensure the long-lasting anti-drip coating functions correctly and the film achieves its full service life, strictly follow these installation guidelines:
-
Correct Orientation: The specialized anti-drip coating is applied to one surface. Install the film with the coated side facing inside the greenhouse. Look for the printed orientation logos/marks on the film surface.
-
Surface Protection: Avoid dragging or rubbing the outer coating against rough surfaces during cutting or mounting to prevent coating damage.
-
Recommended Mounting Hardware: Secure the film using LOCKUP® Locking Profiles and VINIPET® Wiggle Wires to eliminate friction against the frame.
-
Frame Maintenance: Never allow the film to touch rusty steel pipes. Ensure all structural metal is clean and properly treated against corrosion.
-
Structure Geometry: Maintain smooth, continuous angles on your structure. Avoid concave pockets, dead bends, or loose sagging where water can pool.
-
Temperature & Timing: Install during early morning or late evening when temperatures are mild. Apply firmer tension during cold winter installations and lighter tension in warm summer conditions.
-
Initial Humidity Note: It is recommended to maintain humidity around 70% inside the greenhouse during initial setup to activate optimal performance.

Clear Film FL690H 150 MICRONS FAQ
Which direction should the FL690H film face during installation?
The anti-drip coating side must face inside the greenhouse structure. Follow the printed logo marks on the film surface for correct alignment.
Is FL690H suitable for bumblebee pollination?
Yes, FL690H features a UV-OPEN formulation that lets beneficial UV light spectrums pass, allowing bees to navigate and pollinate naturally.
Can I use FL690H on rusty greenhouse frames?
No. Direct contact with rusty steel pipes accelerates thermal breakdown and voids the warranty. Ensure frames are clean or covered with protective profile locks.
