Polycarbonate:

What is the difference between solid polycarbonate and acrylic glass (plexiglass)?

A sheet of acrylic glass is strong and can withstand 5 times more impact than glass.
Solid polycarbonate is even stronger and can withstand 250 times more impact than glass.
Unlike acrylic glass, polycarbonate does not form sharp edges when broken.
Flexibility: Polycarbonate is more flexible than acrylic glass.

Cellular polycarbonate is a hollow material, where two thin sheets are connected by internal partitions.
Solid polycarbonate is a single sheet of a specific thickness and is available in both flat and profiled (corrugated) sheets.

Yes, but it depends on the density of the cellular polycarbonate:
4mm thick sheets can be rolled easily.
6mm – 8mm thick sheets can be rolled depending on their density.
10mm thick sheets should be rolled carefully.
16mm and above cannot be rolled due to their high density.
Solid polycarbonate cannot be rolled.

Yes, we offer a polycarbonate cutting service according to your required dimensions. The cutting cost depends on the volume of work.

Premifarm Vertical Farms:

How easy is it to grow greens on your own?

It’s easy. With the Premifarm vertical farm, we provide green seeds, instructions for managing growth modes, and recommendations for growing crops. Even a child can learn how to do it.

For home use, Premifarm Mini is the best choice. Its compact size allows it to be placed in a spacious kitchen, living room, or garage. The low noise level makes it suitable for home use, but we recommend placing it away from bedrooms and children’s rooms.

In some cases, depending on the size of the home and the household’s need for greens and microgreens, the Premifarm Basic vertical farm can also be installed.

Premifarm Basic is designed for public spaces, such as:

Restaurants
Corporations and production facilities with large staff
Educational institutions (schools, kindergartens)
