When is a sun protection garment not just a sun protection garment?

When it is made by ACTIVSKINS™!

Because cover provided depends (amongst other things) on the fabric used. Tightness of the weave, weight, fibres used and colours all have a bearing on how effective a garment is at keeping out harmful rays.

Ultraviolet Protection Factor (UPF) is a scale developed to rate protection provided by fabrics against solar ultraviolet radiation (UVR) and is comparable to SPF for sunscreens.

With an Ultraviolet Protection Factor (UPF) 50 guarantee, ACTIVSKINS™ Sun Protection garments ensure 50 times the protection against UVR compared to unprotected skin.

In real terms, this means that only 2% of UV rays can penetrate the fabric, thus radically reducing exposure and possible
sunburn.

Safer sun hour after hour with ACTIVSKINS™ Sun Protection – but don't forget to apply a good quality high SPF factor sun cream to exposed areas.
