As the greenhouse with the longest service life, the glass greenhouse is suitable for use in various regions and various climatic conditions. Therefore, it has the widest audience. According to the different ways of use, it can be divided into: vegetable glass greenhouse, flower glass greenhouse, seedling glass greenhouse, ecological glass greenhouse, scientific research glass greenhouse, three-dimensional glass greenhouse, special-shaped glass greenhouse, leisure glass greenhouse, intelligent glass greenhouse, etc. The geological conditions and natural environment of the greenhouse are different, so the cost of site leveling and greenhouse foundation varies greatly. It is not included in the statistics of the overall cost of the greenhouse. Then the construction cost of a commercial greenhouse is left with the main structure, covering materials and greenhouse system.
Main structure
Generally speaking, the height of a greenhouse will directly affect the construction cost. Although the increase in height will increase the amount of greenhouse materials used, this increase in price is very small in terms of the overall cost ratio. The main reason why the height causes the greenhouse cost to increase is the increase in the specifications of the materials used in the greenhouse. After the height increases, it is subject to greater environmental impact, such as wind loads and snow disasters. Therefore, in terms of the main structure, when the shoulder height is 6 meters or less. The price of the main structure of a commercial glass greenhouse is 15.8USD/㎡-20.4USD/㎡.
Covering materials
Covering materials are divided into top covering materials and wall covering materials. In order to reduce the self-weight of commercial glass greenhouses, we generally use single-layer tempered glass for top covering materials. At the same time, in order to enhance the thermal insulation effect of commercial glass greenhouses, we generally use double-layer hollow tempered glass for wall covering materials. Or customers can choose film as part of the greenhouse covering material to reduce the construction cost of the greenhouse. For the choice of glass, ultra-clear glass has a light transmittance of 91% (ordinary glass 86%), but the price is 30% higher. The price of covering materials for commercial glass greenhouses is 15.6USD/㎡. -20.5USD/㎡.
Greenhouse system
In order to make the environmental conditions inside the greenhouse more conducive to plant growth, some systems need to be added. For example, cooling system, shading system, ventilation system. These systems are related to the main structure of the greenhouse, so they are included in the construction cost of commercial glass greenhouses. However, the lighting system, irrigation system, and seedling bed system will have very different costs due to product price differences, system solutions, and the amount of layout, so they are not included in the construction cost of commercial glass greenhouses. The price of the shading system of a commercial glass greenhouse is 1.2USD/㎡. -1.8USD/㎡; the price of the cooling system is 1.7USD/㎡-2.1USD/㎡. The price of the ventilation system is 2.1USD/㎡-2.6USD/㎡.
From this we can conclude that the main structure (accounting for 35%-45% of the total cost), covering materials (25%-35%), and environmental control systems (20%-30%). Therefore, in order to obtain a more accurate construction cost of a commercial glass greenhouse, you still need to contact pandagreenhouse.
