UPF 50+ Sun Protection
UPF 50+ is the highest sun protection rating available for fabrics, blocking 98% of harmful UV radiation. Our board shorts with UPF 50+ protection provide excellent sun safety for extended water activities and beach exposure. Unlike sunscreen which requires reapplication, UPF protection is built into the fabric and remains effective throughout wear.
UPF rating measures fabric's ability to block UV radiation from reaching the skin. A UPF 50+ rating means that less than 2% of UV rays penetrate the fabric, providing excellent protection against both UVA and UVB rays. This protection is particularly important for water sports where water reflection increases UV exposure and sunscreen may wash off. Our UPF 50+ board shorts are tested and certified to international standards for sun protection.
Our UPF 50+ fabrics achieve sun protection through tightly woven construction and specialized fiber treatments. The fabric construction itself blocks UV rays, while additional treatments enhance protection without compromising breathability or quick-dry performance. UPF 50+ protection is available on all our fabric options including recycled polyester, nylon, and microfiber, allowing brands to offer sun protection across their entire board shorts range.

Sustainable Board Shorts Manufacturing
Sustainability is increasingly important in swimwear manufacturing due to the environmental impact of synthetic fabrics. Our recycled polyester board shorts are made from post-consumer plastic bottles, reducing waste and demand for virgin polyester. The recycled polyester maintains the same performance characteristics as virgin polyester while significantly reducing environmental footprint. GRS certification ensures the recycled content is verified throughout the supply chain.
Beyond fabric selection, our sustainable manufacturing practices include water-efficient dyeing processes, reduced chemical usage through OEKO-TEX certification, and waste minimization in cutting and sewing operations. We work with suppliers who share our commitment to environmental responsibility, ensuring that sustainability extends throughout the entire production chain from raw materials to finished garments.
Our bluesign-certified fabrics represent the highest standard in sustainable textile production, covering the entire supply chain from raw materials to finished garments. This certification ensures that all chemical processes meet strict environmental standards, reducing water consumption, minimizing emissions, and eliminating harmful substances from the production chain. Brands targeting environmentally conscious consumers can leverage our sustainable options to meet growing demand for eco-friendly swimwear.
