White reflective PE ground cover, also called white horticultural ground cloth, reflective weed mat or black and white mulch film. The white surface reflects sunlight back into the crop canopy, while the black underside blocks light to suppress weeds.
Common specifications for woven reflective ground cover and white mulch film. Custom width, roll length, weight, color and packaging are available.
| Parameter | Standard Range |
|---|---|
| Material | PE / HDPE woven fabric or PE film, with UV stabilizer. Woven type offers stronger tear resistance; film type is lighter. |
| Weight | Woven type: 90-150 g/m² |
| Thickness | Film type: 21-40 μm; woven type is usually specified by gsm. 40 μm+ film is more durable. |
| Width | 0.4 m - 8.4 m+; common widths 1-4 m; custom widths available. |
| Roll Length | Customizable; common 100 m and 400 m rolls. |
| Light Transmittance | < 1% for effective weed suppression. |
| Reflectance | 80% - 95%, helping reflect light into the lower crop canopy. |
| Drainage | Approx. 10 L/m²·s for woven type, supporting good water permeability. |
| Lifespan | 8-10 years for UV-stabilized woven type; film type lifespan is shorter. |
| MOQ | Negotiable according to width, weight, color and packaging. |
Designed for farms and greenhouses that need light reflection, weed control, soil temperature regulation and durable ground coverage.
The white surface reflects 80-95% of light back toward the crop canopy, helping improve photosynthesis on lower leaves and supporting higher fruit quality.
The black underside blocks sunlight with <1% light transmittance, reducing weed germination and lowering herbicide and labor costs.
Bright reflected light can disturb aphids, leafhoppers and thrips, helping reduce pest pressure and insect-transmitted disease risk.
The reflective surface helps reduce soil heat in hot seasons, while ground coverage reduces water evaporation and supports moisture retention.
UV-stabilized PE woven fabric can be reused for multiple seasons, especially in orchards, greenhouses and horticultural projects.
Width, roll length, weight, color structure, guide lines, labels and packaging can be customized for distributors and private-label buyers.
