Following Microsoft’s announcement to reduce support for Internet Explorer 11 even further, along with their recommendation to switch to Microsoft Edge, we, too, have now decided not to support this browser any longer. This was a conscious decision, on the one hand in order to protect you and your data, and on the other to ensure that we can implement new technologies that Internet Explorer 11 does not support.

How does UV protection work with regard to apparel?

For our UV protective apparel we only use materials where the UV protection is not achieved via chemical treatment. Instead, the protective function results from the use of special yarns and/or fabric constructions (e.g. extremely dense weaves).

Advantages:

  • The function is integrated into the fabric itself
  • The protection is long-lasting and is not diminished by perspiration or contact with water
  • The UV protection factor is also suitable for intense sunlight (UVA + UVB protection)

Apparel with an UV protection factor of 40+ quotes the EN 13758-1:2001+A1:2006 standard. Only covered areas are protected. The protection may be reduced with use or if stretched or wet.
