LUMENEX™
ETFE GREENHOUSE ROOF SYSTEM

THE VENLO F-CLEAN® ROOF SYSTEM
FOR EXTREME CIRCUSTANCES

For locations where system aging due to UV radiation, contamination or mechanical stress, such as earthquakes, must be considered, our innovative ETFE Venlo greenhouse roof system is the ideal solution. The use of this F-Clean® brand material in our Venlo greenhouse roof system ensures high UV light transmission. The film itself is self-cleaning and has unsurpassed resistance to aging and unexpected external forces.

The BOAL greenhouse roofing system, suitable for integration of ETFE film, has been developed in collaboration with AGC Green-Tech with special attention to sustainability and ease of construction. As a result of this collaboration, the highly translucent F-Clean® roofing material integrates extremely well with our high-tech Lumenex™ Venlo greenhouse roofing system.

  • DURABLE;
  • EASY AND SAFE INSTALLATION;
  • Long lifespan;
  • High light transmission.

Technical information

The Venlo ETFE system is designed for greenhouse configurations with a section size of 4.80 metres and sections up to 5.00 metres. The specially designed slim greenhouse profiles provide robust cover solutions into which you can efficiently integrate and enclose the ETFE to create a protected growing environment quickly and safely. 

The system is made based on the membrane size of the film, which saves time in fixing and avoids unnecessary material loss.

The Lumenex™ Venlo greenhouse roof system suitable for ETFE foil integration is accurately calculated and tested for local load factors using specific TNO software. By producing according to certified quality processes ISO 9001, ISO 14001, OHSAS 18001 and CE, we guarantee the quality of the BOAL F-Clean® greenhouse cover solution.

For effortless integration of the ETFE foil into the BOAL F-Clean® foil greenhouse roof system, we recommend using our specially developed roofcart. It ensures a fast, safe and efficient installation.
