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 clothing is sun-safe.
The UV-blocking clothing technology 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 are at the beach, you can worry a bit less about the sun and more on having fun!

Can this hat replace suncream for my child?
The hat provides excellent coverage and sun protection, but suncream is still recommended for exposed areas of skin and to protect against any reflected UV rays.
How should I clean the hat?
To ensure longevity, machine wash the hat in cold water with mild detergent. Avoid using bleach or fabric softeners. Hang to dry in the shade to maintain its colour and elasticity over time.

What sets UPF 50+ clothing apart from regular clothing?
Our UPF 50+ clothing offers superior protection by blocking over 97.5% of harmful UV rays, unlike regular clothing, which often provides little or no UV defence. Standard fabrics may let UV rays penetrate, leading to sunburn and long-term skin damage. In contrast, our UPF 50+ clothing and swimwear provides a level of UV protection that is certified and ensures safe exposure during outdoor activities.
