If double glazing is so good
how come many of the manufacturers don't offer it?

Because most gardeners don't heat their greenhouses through the winter?
It's only cactus growers and similar who tend to heat their greenhouses
significantly (i.e. maintaining a temperature of 40 deg F or
thereabouts) as opposed to merely maintaining it frost-free.

But surely if it's cheaper then even a cold greenhouse would benefit
from double glazing, you might get away with no heating at all.

I would expect that double-glazing a glass greenhouse would almost
double its initial cost.

If demand is not large, it is no suprise that there are
few manufacturers catering to the demand for double-glazed
structures.
