What is UPF 50+ protection?
UPF 50+ is the highest rating for fabrics. It means that the fabric blocks 98% of UV rays.
All of our apparel, this polo included, are certified UPF 50+ under the rigorous Australian and New Zealand standard AS/NZS 4399:1966.
Why does my child need to wear sun protective clothing?
Children’s skin is thinner and more sensitive to sun damage - especially during water activities, when suncream can easily wash off. UPF 50+ swimwear blocks over 98% of harmful UV rays, offering reliable protection that doesn’t wear off like suncream.
For babies under 6 months, sunscreen isn’t recommended at all - so sun protective clothing is essential for keeping their delicate skin safe.
Why do you use Stingray fabric?
We choose Stingray because they are the original Australian sun protective clothing manufacturer, trusted since 1986. Their advanced fabrics are designed to block harmful UV rays through the fabric’s construction – without using chemical additives. By combining premium fibres, dense fabric weaves and specialist techniques, Stingray creates certified UPF 50+ protection that lasts for the lifetime of the garment, even after countless washes. This means long‑lasting, reliable sun protection you can trust.
