TECHNICAL INFORMATION

What is the mechanical insect repellent solution used for the TROPIC 900 hat?

The product's ultra-tight component acts as a mechanical solution that limits mosquito bites when not under tension.
We chose a mechanical solution vs. a permethrin-based impregnation ( biocide product ) which is less toxic

How did we test the effectiveness of the TROPIC 900 hat against mosquito bites?

How did we test the hat's effectiveness against mosquito bites?
Thanks to a specialized laboratory, we tested the hat's effectiveness.
60 female mosquitoes (yes, only the ladies actually bite) of 3 different species (Aedes, Culex and Anopheles) were placed in a hermetically sealed room.
Result: the component blocked 95% of mosquito bites.
Full report available on request.

How effective is the mosquito netting on the TROPIC 900 hat?

The World Health Organization recommends at least 25 holes per cm² to effectively stop mosquitoes.
With 40 holes per cm², the mosquito net used on this hat won't let any through.
The net is not impregnated.

How do I fold my TROPIC 900 hat?

Simply make a "figure eight" with the edges of your hat, then fold it in half.
And off you go! Slide it into the pouch provided.
This trick will enable you to carry your hat in your backpack or suitcase without damaging it.

How can you protect yourself better in areas at risk from mosquitoes?

If you're going to an area with a high density of mosquitoes, we recommend the use of a mosquito repellent spray based on lemon eucalyptus essential oil or Icaridine.
In some countries, mosquitoes can carry serious diseases such as chikungunya, dengue fever or malaria.
