Miroflect climate screens are transparent to sunlight and reflective of thermal heat — keeping warmth inside your greenhouse, day and night.
Traditional climate screens force a choice: light transmission or heat retention. Miroflect eliminates that trade-off.
The screen transmits PAR wavelengths (400–700 nm) fully — crops receive all the sunlight they need for photosynthesis, with no yield penalty.
A nanometric active layer applied by magnetron sputtering reflects mid-infrared radiation (MIR 9–10 µm) emitted by plants and soil back into the greenhouse.
The coated film is protected by a specially developed IR-transparent topcoat, then woven into standard screen format — fully compatible with existing greenhouse infrastructure.
Unlike opaque aluminised screens that must be retracted during daylight, Miroflect works around the clock — maximising energy savings across the full heating season.
| Feature | Standard transparent screen | Aluminised screen | Miroflect |
|---|---|---|---|
| PAR light transmission | ✓ | ✗ | ✓ |
| Reflects thermal infrared (MIR) | ✗ | ✓ | ✓ |
| Usable during daytime | ✓ | ✗ | ✓ |
| Annual gas savings vs. standard | — | Partial (night only) | ~20% |
| Compatible with existing systems | ✓ | ✓ | ✓ |
Independent measurements by Wageningen University & Research confirm 20% annual gas savings compared to standard transparent screens — from your first heating season.
Full PAR transmission means your plants see zero difference. No adjustments to lighting schedules, no yield trade-offs.
Miroflect installs exactly like a standard climate screen. No modifications to your existing drive system or structure required.
200 tonnes CO₂ equivalent saved per hectare per year. Meet sustainability targets, reduce your exposure to carbon pricing, and communicate green credentials to buyers.
The incremental cost over a standard screen is approximately CHF 30,000/ha. At current gas prices, payback is typically under 2 heating seasons.
Developed by specialists from Infrascreen and validated at Wageningen University. Protected by patent CH001221/2025 for crystallised transparent conductive oxides.
