What is UPF and why is it important for sun protective clothing?
UPF stands for Ultraviolet Protection Factor and it is a rating system used to measure the effectiveness of sun protective clothing in blocking harmful UV radiation from the sun. The UPF rating indicates the amount of UV radiation that can penetrate the fabric and reach the skin. The higher the UPF rating, the greater the protection the clothing provides against UV rays. It is crucial to wear sun protective clothing with a high UPF, as prolonged exposure to UV radiation can lead to sunburn, premature aging, and an increased risk of skin cancer. By wearing clothing with a high UPF, individuals can significantly reduce their exposure to harmful UV rays, ensuring better protection and maintaining healthier skin.
