Does it have UV protection? How does it do in long sun exposures like greenhouses?

Hello, thank you for bringing us your questions about our 20 ft. x 100 ft. 6-mil Fire Retardant String Reinforced Polyethylene Construction Film. I'm sorry to say that flame retardant products contain no UV protection. This is due to the UV resistance additive and the fire retardant additive work against each other in the blend during manufacturing causing them to cancel each other out. As a result this fire retardant product is not recommended for greenhouse use with an expected life expectancy of 3-6 months under UV exposure. We would be happy to answer any further questions about best product application and use right away though. Please reach out to us at (760)747-6095 any time Monday - Friday during business hours and we would be more than happy to help you.
