UV protection even when wet
The fabric used in this UV protection product OLAIAN blocks at least 98% of UVB and 95% of UVA rays (UPF 50+). This guarantees effective protection against the sun. It can be used in and out of the water for water sports.
What does UPF 50+ mean?
UPF is a sun protection index (Ultra Violet Protection Factor) standardized and standardized worldwide.
It defines the textile's level of protection and, more precisely, the proportion of UV transmission.
To meet the standards, it must block at least 95% of UV rays. UPF 50+ means that the textile blocks at least 95% of UVA and 98% of UVB rays.
Protect the little ones!
Because a child's defense system is met in place after the age of 3, their skin is very sensitive to the sun. For the same exposure, the effects of the sun are 2 to 3 times greater for a child than for an adult. So it's important to protect them effectively.
Behavior in the sun
Although this hat provides protection from the sun, phenomena such as reverberation (on water, sand, etc.), heat, time of day, etc. must be taken into account. Wearing a hat doesn't mean you don't have to take appropriate precautions: wear sunglasses, apply appropriate sun cream regularly, wear an anti-UV top or anti-UV shorts, drink regularly, etc.
