FAQ
YES.
When silage is not tightly covered, air and moisture can easily enter the silo and adversely affect both the ensiling process and the quality of silage during storing and feeding.
Leave it on the beds for minimum 2-3 weeks before removing them.
Imported mLLDPE, LDPE colorant, UV stabilizers, etc.
Normally, a minimum 12 months life is guaranteed.
Longer lifespan can be achieved by adding more UV stabilizers.
Production Technology: 7-layer is better than 5-layer, and better than 3-layer.
Ratio of UV Stabilizer: the more proportion of UV stabilizer, the longer life of silage tarp.
Thickness Difference: declared thickness may Not the real thickness.
