Insulation Fixing Aids

Greenhouse insulation is easy to fit in greenhouses - aluminium or wooden greenhouses - and polythene tunnels as long as you have the correct greenhouse fixing aids to suit the greenhouse.

For Aluminium Greenhouses

Insulation is easy to secure to the frame of the greenhouse by using retaining clips - such as our Alliplugs which fit into the bolt channels / glazing channels of aluminium greenhouses. This makes fixing insulation quick and easy - and the retaining clips can be used again and again without their strength being affected. To make a good, neat job you'll need approximately 10 clips per 12 ft of insulation material. Remember to cut and fasten the bubble insulation around windows, vents and louvers so they can still be opened - use our All Weather Tape to securely hold the insulation in place.

For Wooden Greenhouses

When fixing insulation within a wooden greenhouse we recommend you use our Woodpins as these have large heads making them easy to remove and reuse for holding shading material later in the year.

For Polythene Tunnels

The best way to hold bubble insulation within a poly tunnel is to use either All Weather Tape or Double Sided Tape to hold the bubble insulation. Polytunnels can be very large spaces to keep warm over winter, so you would be better if you could get all your plants into one area then section this area off using bubble insulation to form a separating wall.
