Bio Plus Retractable Mini-Tunnel System

A simple system, quick to install, easy to maneuver and 3 times less expensive than a large tunnel.

• Three years of research have led to the creation of a removable shelter system. It is simple, quick to install, easy to maneuver, and three times less expensive than a large tunnel.

  This system consists of hoops, a perforated thermal transparent film on the sides and “bungee” elastic cords which allow the structure to be held in place and the sides to be raised and lowered according to the desired climate.

  The advantages are numerous: extended production season, better yield, less disease caused by rain, protection against hail and wind.
