1. Sun Protective Textiles „BOTANIC SUNPROTECTION“

2. 08-05-2009 | 2 Why?  Because of changes in recreational behavior, dermatologists indicate a considerable global increase in the occurance of skin cancer.  Recently experts estimate that there are more than 200,000 incidences per annum of skin cancer in Germany alone. In Australia it is reported that 50% of people above the age of 40 are affected to some degree by skin cancer.*  Dermatologists warn that particularly children should be protected from long periods of incident solar radiation, e.g. with sun protective textiles.  But also sportsmen and people who occupationally have to remain outdoors sun protection is vital.

6. 08-05-2009 | 6 Textile UV-Protection  Sun-protective clothing is any garment that can provide adequate protection from the sun. Generally speaking, clothing must have a UPF value of 15 to 50+ (blocks 93 - 98% of UV radiation), and cover or shade sufficient skin to protect a person from the damaging rays of the sun*.  Textiles are predestined for UV-protection. The use of the appropriate textile materials and constructions in particular textiles gives a good protection against intense radiation.  For certain textiles UVPs (Ultraviolet Protection Factors) can be reached which are far above those from sun creams.  It is not possible to assess the UV permeability of textiles (how much UV-radiation goes through textile materials onto skin) by close examination – the measurement techniques are well defined. *International UV Testing Laboratories

10. 08-05-2009 | 10 Findings  Large effect on the sun protection factor between bright and dull fibers  Tightness of the dull fabric has an exponential influence on sun protection factor Tightness of the bright fabric has nearly no influence  Large effect on the sun protection factor between white and coloured fabrics  Finer yarns (same fabric weight) have better sun protection effect than thicker yarns.  Fibrillation and hairiness has quite a big positive effect on the sun protection factor  Expanded knitted fabric loses most of the sun protection factor
