Few things in life are as satisfying as growing your own plants, be it flowers, vegetables, or herbs. Greenhouses offer an ideal growing environment to make that happen and Palram – Canopia makes ideal DIY greenhouse kits. The differences are in the details.

The Hybrid Greenhouse combines two types of polycarbonate panels to create a balanced environment for your plants. Polycarbonate is a virtually unbreakable polymer that provides the light transmission benefits of glass, but is lighter, stronger, and safer.

The diffused roof panels are made of 4mm twin-wall polycarbonate, which have twice the heat retention of single layer panels and allow the light to reach your plants at all angles for more even sunlight and growth while preventing plant burn. The side panels are translucent polycarbonate, providing over 90% light transmission, while blocking harmful UV rays.

Both the panels and the aluminum frame are engineered to be extremely durable, resistant to harsh weather, and maintain their high quality. This attention to detail continues with an integrated gutter system for drainage as well as a roof vent and hinged door to provide airflow and allow adjustment of heat, humidity, and ventilation.

We know it may feel intimidating to put together a greenhouse which is why the Hybrid is designed as a ready to assemble DIY project, with no special tools needed.

Extend your growing season and display your plants while protecting them from harsh sunlight with a hybrid-glazed greenhouse kit!

  1. Tony Read Country: United Kingdom (UK)

    Excellent product backed up by first class customer service

    This is an excellent product backed up with first class customer service. As other reviews have mentioned it is well worth spending the time to make a good and above all level base early on. When taken slowly and carefully the picture instructions are fine and the design is really quite ingenious. Perhaps best not to build it at the...
  2. Jaedon Country: United Kingdom (UK)

    Excellent value for money

    Allow plenty of time for construction and secure the base to form foundations early in the build or you’ll battle with any slight wind. A little care is needed as not all parts are numbered, but the picture based instructions were better than expected. Once complete, it quickly hears up, so should work well and definitely worth ordering an automatic...

    Aluminum and Polycarbonate: Good Team

    Assembly was a bit of a hassle, making me question my purchase. Yet, the greenhouse has already faced rain and wind, standing tall and unscathed. The materials are definitely reliable.

The warranty for all our greenhouses is for at least 5 years, some for more. The crystal-clear single layer or twin-wall polycarbonate panels maintain their integrity, they do not discolor, opacify, fracture or shatter over time.
Each wall section can carry up to 44 lbs. at most – an entire wall would depend upon the greenhouse’ size.
It can be anchored to a foundation, depending on the greenhouse, some have compatible holes at the bottom of the greenhouse base, and some have their own integrated anchoring. Yes, the greenhouse can be anchored to concrete slab. It can be anchored directly to the ground using ground stakes (ground stakes are not supplied with the greenhouse kits). *Firmly connect the product to a level surface immediately after completion of the assembly. Anchoring this product to the ground is essential to its stability and rigidity. It is required to complete this stage in order for your warranty to be valid.
The Canopia Greenhouse can be used year-round, but there are several factors to consider. The two main factors are weather and plants. What are the plants you want to grow and how much heat or cold can they handle? No matter where you live, greenhouses can be 20-40 degrees hotter inside during the day and at night they will be the same temperature as the outdoors. This is without any supplemental heating or cooling. Depending on where you live, heating and / or cooling your greenhouse can make a difference. If you need to heat or cool your greenhouse in extreme weather conditions, you may want to consider a twin-wall greenhouse such as the Canopia Glory Greenhouse which has a 10mm polycarbonate covering.
