Sun Block Fabric / Sun Protective Fabric / UV-cut Fabric

SPORTINGTEX®-Sun Block Fabric / Sun Protective Fabric / UV Cut Fabric

How does Sun Block Fabric / Sun Protective Fabric work?

Sun Block Fabric / Sun Protective fabric is using UV-cut fiber that is capable to isolate or reflect UV rays, reducing thermal transmission, and protecting our skin from UV radiation.

Sun Block Fabric / Sun Protective fabric also involves with chosen fabric structure. Sportingtex’s UV-Cut fabric chooses high-tech fiber with tight density fabric structure, UV Ray cannot go through the fabric into our skin.

Prevent direct sunlight and damage to the skin

Technically, fabric with UPF 1 means the protection from sunlight is about 10 minutes. If people are wearing a T-shirt with UPF 20 that means we can stay in the sun for 200 minutes (approximately 3 hours long). The higher the number rating, the more UV protection we get protection. It is very protective that people who have to stay outdoor all day long would need to wear UV-Cut functional clothes with UPF 40 at least.

The Sun Block Fabric / UV-Cut fabric has 3 ratings, based on the different UPF (as the table abvoe), due to different fabric structures and covering rates will affect the heat insulating ability and UV protection.

Moisture Wicking Fabric / Quick Dry Fabric

What is a Moisture Wicking Fabric?

A moisture wicking fabric is a fabric that is designed to pull moisture away from the body. In other words, moisture-wicking fabrics are designed to keep you dry.

Quick dry fiber cross section
(Capillary Action)

How does Moisture Wicking Fabric work?

SPORTINGTEX wicking fabrics use uniquely “X shaped” cross-section fiber, combined with high absorption technology that moisture and sweat can be pulled away from the skin very quickly and transmitted to the fabric surface, and also help to diffuse on the fabric surface much wider/faster.

Capillary action is a process of how moisture wicking fabrics draw moisture.

In addition, in the process of moisture wicking, when the liquid sweat is transformed into water vapor, it will produce a heat absorption phenomenon, which will be taken away by the water vapor. Therefore, the fabric not only has the function of wicking but also It provides you with a cool and comfortable wearing feeling.

Benefits of Moisture Wicking Fabric

1. Keep skin and clothes dry to reduce the smell.
2. The special-shaped section structure of the fiber makes the textile more breathable.
3. The fiber is not easily deformed.
4. Thermoregulation (regulating body temperature when surrounding temperature drops.
