AGRAVIS offers you a wide range of films for your silos. You will also find the right product for covering land here.
Silage films:
silage films maintain silage quality in the sealed silo. It protects the air-tight underlay film from UV radiation, mechanical stress and the elements. It also reduces air exchange between the silage and the underlay film. AGRAVIS Raiffeisen AG offers you a wide product range for silage films.
• Elan three-layer film
The three-layer film from Elan is produced using a special extrusion process (TriEx). During this process, the individual layers are combined into a highly resilient bond with one another in the melt, yet without intermixing with one another. Users can achieve specific mechanical, visual and thermal characteristics which surpass conventional German Agricultural Society (DLG) requirements.
Highly resilient bond between materials without intermixing with one another
Comparable with a 200 μ silage film, yet up to a third thinner and lighter
Many run lengths to choose from
The factory-produced fold in the product (C-fold) enables users to easily unfold and spread the Elan silage film over their silo system from the middle to the longitudinal sides. This ensures that the desired green side is facing upwards after the film is spread.
12-month warranty for weather resistance during normal use.
• Silo2Block film: highly efficient thanks to modern seven-layer structure
• Polydress O2 Barrier 2-in-1 – combination between silage and underlay films
After the combination film has been laid out, the underlay film absorbs moisture from the ensilage material. This improves firmness, stretching and puncture resistance significantly. The water vapour diffuses through the underlay film and condenses on the silage film, which blocks the vapour. This causes the underlay film to separate from the silage film and nestle against the silo stock’s uneven surface.
Stack depending on the dry matter content in the silage Three layers are possible if dry matter is more than 45 per cent; stack only two layers if dry matter is less than 45 per cent. If you do not, the lower bales will deform and air may penetrate into the bales between the film layers
Lay out the storage facility in such a way that it is not possible to damage the films. If there is a problem with mice, open storage facility with sandy floor; net cover if there is a problem with birds.
If you value dimensionally stable bales and simple, clean silage unwrapping, you’re on the right track with Polydress® Round Bale Film. Crop packing will all run smoothly with this round bale film.
Advantages:
High film stability on the mantel surface to ensure more effective mechanical protection for storage and transport
Suitable for all stationary and mobile round bale combination balers with film feed
Available for edge-to-edge; length: 2,000 m; width: 1.28 m
Also available as over-the-edge film for McHale and Göweil round balers; length: 2,000 m; width: 1.38 m
Baletite is an innovative polyethylene foil which serves as a replacement for traditional round bale netting. It was specially developed for the new generation of bale wrapping machines which can attach films instead of nets to improve the ensilage process. This means additional protection for bale content. The film can be used for grass, maize and sugar beet. It is suitable due to its limited UV resistance but not for straw or hay.
Advantages:
Better oxygen barrier
Extraordinary puncture resistance
Additional protection for bale edges
More compact, denser bales
Smooth film surface
Thickness: 13 µm, 16 µm
Available lengths: 2,000 m/2,400 m; widths: 95 cm/128 cm/138 cm
Combined with Silotite stretch film, the Baletite net replacement film is an innovative next generation dual film wrapping method. It provides a significantly improved oxygen barrier. This combination delivers more compact, denser bales which are better shaped and better protected.
The tenobale Compressor is a new solution which uses high-grade stretch film to provide easy handling of silage bales while improving retention of energy content and nutrients.
Advantages:
Long side also protected with film
Improved air seal for better feed conservation and staple feed quality
Maximum compression
Highly compact bales and extra protection for transport and storage
More stable shape of bales, thus providing easier handling
Joint opening and disposal of stretch and mantle films
No freezing up, unlike with nets
New/other feedstuffs can be ensiled; areas of use: maize husk residue, CCM, maize silage, beet pulp, grass silage, pomace
Tube films are an interesting alternative to conventional silo structures. Polydress FarmTube offers all-round reliable protection for such uses. The film is first choice for professional feed conservation and storage of food crops.
Advantages:
wide range of uses – food crops, grain, rapeseed, potatoes and ensilaged grass and maize.
The harvest advancement film stores the solar energy irradiated into the soil, thus ensuring the soil warms up and providing an air layer near to the ground. At least 500 holes per square metre with a hole diameter of 1 cm are required for ventilation and water flow.
Covertan harvest advancement fleece is suitable for the following crops:
All vegetable species – as frost protection and harvest advancement directly after planting
Potatoes – as frost protection and harvest advancement directly before planting
Asparagus – as a double cover for harvest advancement
Advantages:
Highly elastic, yet tear-resistant, adjustable to be very tight and easy to handle thanks to modern non-woven technology and the 30 cm edge reinforcement
Extra edge lamination makes this harvest advancement fleece very light and highly tear-resistant
19 and 22 g/m² increase the climate effect and improve mechanical resilience
Thickness: 17 g/m², 19 g/m², 22 g/m²
Available in white
Available lengths: 100 m/250 m/customised lengths on request; and widths: 1.60 m to 20.10 m
Asparagus films
We have been experts in film products for more than 40 years. There have been new developments in this area ever since then. We also offer films and fleeces optimally matched to asparagus harvest advancement.
The mechanical properties of the Raiffeisen HiProPlus pocket film provide maximum durability. You can regulate crops as required by turning over the film, thus allowing for more breaks and improved manpower planning.
Material:
100% low density polyethylene (LDPE) without regeneration
UV stability factor 6 at 100 my or 8 at 150 my if used and stored correctly
Optimised fusing of pockets, ensuring increased tear resistance
Advantages:
Thickness: 100 µm, 150 µm
Available in black/white
Available lengths: 300 m/1,000 m/customised lengths on request; and width: 1.40 m
Thermal film XXL is very wide and is used on its own or as a double cover on film that has already been attached. A maximum thermal effect is achieved thanks to the high proportion of thermal additives and especially thanks to the width. This film type can be used as a double cover layer in combination with all film types. If you heat the ground with the thermal film XXL and then lift the black-and-white film at the first stitch, you can regulate the asparagus yield to an optimum extent throughout the season.
The greenhouse effect is increased if you tense the thermal film XXL over frames, creating an air buffer between the bank and the thermal film. This air buffer prevents the ground from cooling at night.
Advantages:
50 µm thick
Can be supplied as transparent film
Available lengths: 1,000 m; and width: 2 m;
also available in transparent thermal pocket film version
For high-pressure and round balers
Baler yarn
