Where to get Correx to make cold frame?
Where can I get Correx?
I want to make a cold frame to grow vegetables through the winter. Correx seems to be the best glazing material. Do you agree? I've never seen it on sale. Do you know where it can be obtained? Also - any design ideas would be welcomed. -- Chris |

I did a quick Google search on correx and found, among others: http://www.mugi.co.uk/bgwhite/wherecorrex.htm Searching on twinwall, results included: http://www.diyplastics.com/twinwallpricelist.htm No idea if these are up to date, but you'll know better what you're looking for than I do anyhow. I wonder if some of the DIY sheds may be able to help. Mike. |

Fran Clear polycarbonate. I assume our friend wants the hollow kind, with outer skins held apart by parallel webs. I think "Twinwall" is another brand. Mike. |

Correx is a lower quality twin wall polycarbonate sheet, which is good for
making shelters, frames. cloches etc, whilst "Twin walled Poly carb" is usually used to describe the higher quality product as against "Triple walled" Could be worth contacting http://www.kaysersberg-plastics.com/index.htm ( Products..construction) -- David Hill Abacus nurseries www.abacus-nurseries.co.uk |

Thanks, David. In that case the OP might also try Plastics by Post. They do have a website. Franz |
