    I already have the closed plates and the fences.
    These smoke colored poly sheets may have the anti-UV layer added as a special coating for better weather resistance. I'm not sure about that. That would be a good question for the manufacturer. But it would be another plus if it did block the harmful UV rays and just let visible light pass through.

    UV rays are both helpful and harmful. UV rays are needed to help humans and animals produce vitamin D, but overexposure is what you want to avoid. I have had pups out in my kennels and haven't had any problems with their growth that you would see if you kept pups inside and away from the sun.
