[ edit ] Summary UPF Testing Protocol AATCC 183 method defines the UPF rating for a fabric/textile as the ratio of UV measured without the protection of the fabric (compared to) with protection of the fabric. A manufacturer may publish a test result to a maximum of UPF 50 . With our products, you can enjoy your outdoor lifestyle and protect yourself and your family from the harmful rays of the sun. This means the fabric blocks 98% or more of all ultra-violet rays! I have been wearing the Sun Hat and Fusion shirt/jacket everyday! A number of fabrics and textiles in common use today need no further UV-blocking enhancement based on their inherent fiber structure, density of weave , and dye components - especially darker colors and indigo dyes. ASTM D 6603 is a consumer format recommended for visible hangtag and care labelling of sun protective clothing and textiles.
