can Solarveil do for you?
Solarveil fabric is ideal for: The beach,
golfing, fishing, boating, tennis, Sporting events or any other
outdoor activity. Solarveil is great for children as well. They
can play outdoors, even in the water because Solarveil
retains its sun blocking ability when wet and it dries in just
are other sun protective fabrics on the market that block varying
degrees of UVA and UVB rays, as does regular clothing. Some of
these other fabrics are less effective in blocking the more deeply
penetrating UVA rays. The main problem is these fabrics have
little breathability and therefore, are very hot to wear. The
advantages of Solarveil are its total breathability, excellent
wicking properties and the ability to block both UVB and UVA
rays. This unique combination of features is the reason why
Solarveil is revolutionary and has been patented.
does Solarveil work?
Sun Protection Apparel, through its complex manufacturing
process, is specifically designed to reduce transmission of the
invisible ultraviolet rays of the sun, while keeping the wearer
cooler and more comfortable. This unique design makes it totally
breathable, yet is still blocks most of the UVA and UVB
rays. This is possible because of the complex yarn structure,
which reflects, refracts and blocks the UVA and UVB rays. The
fabric is also treated with a UV inhibitor which absorbs UVA and
UVB radiation to further prevent the sun’s harmful rays from
reaching the skin.
much protection do you get?
A single layer of Solarveil blocks
70%-80% of UVA and UVB rays, and a double layer blocks 90%-95%.
Most of our styles are designed with a double layer of Solarveil
in the high exposure areas to give added protection.
also has excellent wicking properties, which is the ability to
pull perspiration away from the skin. This, combined with the open
knit construction that allows air to easily pass through the
fabric which rapidly evaporates moisture, creates an air
conditioning effect keeping the wearer cooler and more
