Why Sun Protective Clothing?
Why Sun Protective Clothing?
Sun cream in many instances does not provide you with sufficient sun protection, leaving you exposed to harmful UV radiation. Over exposure to ultraviolet radiation can cause:
- Sunburn
- Wrinkles
- Sun spots
- Skin cancer including melanoma
- Irreversible skin damage
Stingray's sun protection clothing have been rigorously tested, and they have been shown to meet and exceed the Australian and New Zealand standard AS/NZS 4399:1966; ensuring their swimwear is sun-safe.
The UV-blocking swimwear technology in their UPF 50+ clothing offer you sun protection without the need for sun cream. The UPF 50+ rating is equivalent to wearing a permanent layer of broad spectrum SPF 50+ sun cream, except you don't have the trouble of re-applying. So the next time you go for a swim, you can worry a bit less about the sun and more on having fun!
