women of all races.
- Immune suppression therapies for transplant recipients can cause sun sensitivity.

weakened and vulnerable to UV exposure.

What is sun protective clothing?
Sun protective clothing features everyday lightweight fabrics either treated with a proprietary
UV inhibitor or woven to eliminate the penetration of harmful UV rays to your skin.
Sun protective clothing eliminates the need to apply inconvenient and messy sunscreens.
What should I look for in sun protective clothing?
Understand that all fabrics are not all the same - threads and weave vary. Cottons, for example,
tend to have a poor UPF rating due to the nature of the weave. Canvas and denim have a high
UPF rating but are heavy and too hot for sunny, hot situations. A typical summer-weight cotton
t-shirt has a UPF of about 7, and even less when wet. Sun Solutions garments offer the lightest
weight fabrics (generally 3 ounces per yard), allowing you to have full coverage in the hottest
conditions. Our clothing also wicks moisture away from the body.
Are there special instruction as far as the wash and care?
No, these fabrics are easy to keep clean. They are machine washable and stain resistant!
