This page lists the 63 towns in West Bengal where we have a polyhouse construction guide. Each guide uses that town's own monthly climate to suggest the right structure (naturally ventilated polyhouse, fan and pad polyhouse or nethouse) and lists our construction and material services. We have built 2 projects in West Bengal so far (see our project map (opens in a new tab)).
The towns listed are 1,200 to 1,620 km in a straight line from our nearest site. On the Köppen–Geiger climate map, 54 of these towns fall in the tropical savanna (dry winter) zone (Aw) and 4 in the humid subtropical with dry winters zone (Cwa), and the rest in other zones.[1] Urban households in West Bengal spent an average of ₹5,903 per person per month in 2023–24, against an all-India urban average of ₹7,078.[2]
