Process Overview:
UV protection fabric technology involves treating textiles with UV-blocking agents or using fibers that inherently resist ultraviolet radiation. This process helps reduce the penetration of harmful UV rays, providing skin protection while maintaining comfort, breathability, and flexibility. UV-protective fabrics are widely used in apparel, outdoor gear, and accessories that require sun protection.

Advantages and Limitations:
UV-protective fabrics offer reliable defense against harmful rays, reducing the risk of sunburn and long-term skin damage. Advantages include durability, suitability for daily wear or outdoor activities, and compatibility with various fibers such as cotton, polyester, nylon, and blends. Limitations include potential reduction in softness depending on treatment, higher production costs, and diminished effectiveness after prolonged UV exposure or repeated washing.

Ideal Applications:

• Polyester / Nylon / Blends: outdoor jackets, sportswear, swimwear

• Cotton / Blends: casual shirts, hats, sun-protective clothing

• Specialty fabrics: tents, awnings, umbrellas, outdoor furniture covers

• Accessories: scarves, arm sleeves, UV-protective gloves
