Premier Polytunnels Blog

For the first time ever, our Construction Advice Helpline will not be available on Saturday 15^th April and Easter Sunday (16^th April). This is because one of our directors is getting married and we will all be celebrating with the happy couple.

You may or may not know that over the last few months the price of steel has been steadily rising and looks set to continue increasing.

Here at Premier Polytunnels we are currently absorbing the rising cost of steel so as to avoid passing increases onto our customers.

Premier Polytunnels will be closed from 12:30pm on Thursday 22^nd December and will re-open at 8:30am on Tuesday 3^rd January 2017.

The ‘Premier’ team would like to thank everyone for their support throughout 2016 – it has been a very, very busy year. (The production team are ready for a long nap and a few mince pies!)

What our covers are:

1. Thermal Anti Drip polythene films – the preferred cover of UK growers.

2. ‘Clear’ polythene – with a ‘cloudy’ finish due to being diffused. (Diffused = scatters light).

3. Long-lasting – with an expected lifespan of 7-10 years, depending on the thickness.

4. UV resistant – the additives in our polytunnel covers prevent UV degradation for up to 4-5 years.

Here at Premier Polytunnels we are proud to supply the very highest quality polytunnels to many schools throughout the UK.

It is no surprise that polytunnels are so popular with schools as an outdoor classroom is a fantastic space for schoolchildren to learn many subjects that are on the national curriculum in a fun, exploratory way.

Since we launched our YouTube channel earlier this year, we have been busy discovering lots of videos which have been uploaded by some of our customers... and we think you should see them too! 

OK, maybe a small screen...

Over the last few months we have been working with the very talented Bryan at The Reverb Factory and the results are fantastic! Take a look at our brand new YouTube channel to see for yourselves...

We’ve struck gold!

The votes have been counted and the results are now in for the Great British Growing Awards 2016, and we are delighted to announce that we have won the Gold Award for the Best Greenhouse / Polytunnel Brand.

Dreary January is finally over and we can all really start looking forward to the year ahead. Why not start as you mean to go on this year and give yourself a home-grown health kick?

Premier Polytunnels will be closed from 5pm on Wednesday 23rd December and will re-open at 8:30am on Monday 4th January 2016.
