If you love growing plants and have an eye for design, you're sure to appreciate the 8x16 Palram Canopia Balance Silver Greenhouse (2.44m x 4.87m). With its classical appearance and intelligent, user-friendly features, this large polycarbonate greenhouse is every gardener's dream.Utilising the very latest Fine Shield Technology™, this 8x16 greenhouse is expertly constructed from 4mm twin-wall polycarbonate roof panels and 0.7mm crystal-clear polycarbonate side panels, supported by a rust-resistant aluminium frame and extra beams for added strength.The light-diffusing roof panels promote an even temperature by increasing thermal insulation and reducing extreme sunlight exposure. Both roof and side panels are completely UV-protected and shatterproof, and together they allow 82% light transmission. This means your plants will enjoy optimum growing conditions, you will be protected from harmful UV rays, and the panels will neither discolour nor fade in the sun.Snow-load tested to 75kg/ m² (15.4lbs/ ft²), wind resistant to 90km/ hr (56ml/ hr), and with an apex roof which facilitates efficient rainwater runoff, this high-specification greenhouse will help your plants thrive, whatever nature throws at it.You can gain very easy access to your plants through wide double doors, which are designed with a wheelbarrow-friendly low threshold. The doors are fitted with a magnetic catch and padlock fixing too (padlock not included), so rest assured that your valuable tools and invaluable plants will always be secure.The greenhouse frame features an integral guttering system, offering you a free and sustainable supply of water for your plants, while 3 manually-opened roof vents help you regulate the temperature inside the greenhouse.Backed by a reassuring 5-year limited warranty, this polycarbonate greenhouse is completely maintenance free, saving you money and leaving you more time to nurture your plants.
