This is the ultraviolet protection factor (from the English Ultraviolet Protection Factor). The textile industry uses it as a standard to determine the level of sun protection of a garment's fabric, rated from 15 to 50+. Our UPF 50+ rashguards have the maximum UV protection , i.e. 98% of the sun's rays are blocked, even when wet. This protection is obtained without chemical treatment , thanks to the very tight mesh of the micro fibers. It is therefore permanent and will remain wash after wash.
Here are some arguments for sunscreen versus F2M lycras: diffuses its chemical components in the water / without toxic products effective if applied ½ hour before exposure / effective as soon as worn protection guaranteed if applied regularly / lycra worn = unlimited protection single use / durable and reusable plastic tube container / made from recycled fishing nets the sand sticks / nothing sticks and you are even protected from rubbing In the long term, the sun protection provided by lycras is the most economical and the most ecological.
Here are 4 good reasons to fall for an F2M rashguards : - it is certified UPF50+, maximum sun protection , without any chemical additives - without imprint on marine life - it is made in France - short circuits - it is made of recycled fishing nets and nylons - circular economy - it is extra resistant to chlorine and salt water and maintains its shape - top of the range
“If I put on my T-shirt, don't I need an anti-UV top? » Your dry t-shirt will block UV rays up to 80% and once wet only 65%, while F2M lycras protect you from 98% of UVA and UVB dry or wet. They are all UPF50+ certified , the maximum sun protection.
