Elastic Arm Sleeves UPF 50 with UPF50 BUFF certification

Elastic sleeves or cuffs, designed for outdoor use in warm and/or moderate temperature environments. They have UPF50 certification which offers certified protection against UV radiation from sunlight.

They are designed to dry moisture quickly and efficiently, making them ideal for medium and high intensity activities or warm environments.

They are made from recycled polyester and are very soft, light and breathable and have no seams, which makes them very pleasant to the touch and comfortable for the worker.

CHARACTERISTICS

SUN PROTECTION:

Product certified as Personal Protective Equipment against ultraviolet (UV) radiation from the sun, in accordance with Regulation (EU) 2016/425. Products marked with this icon have been tested in accordance with the following test standards: EN ISO 13688:2013 General requirements, Protective clothing and fabric according to AS/NZ 4399:2017 'Evaluation and classification of sun protection clothing', with results reaching UPF 50 (blocks 98% of UV radiation).

QUICK-DRY:

Fabric with high absorption properties that evaporates sweat and moisture faster.

THE SILICONE ADJUSTMENT:

The upper opening of the sleeve is elastic and includes a silicone fit that holds the product comfortably in place without moving.

HEYQ SMART TEMP COOLING TECHNOLOGY:

It's a revolutionary textile technology that provides fabrics with the ability to interact with body temperature and respond dynamically to body heat. The cooling function is activated when the worker is hot and sweating and deactivated once cooling is complete. It helps to ensure optimum comfort and performance. It is specifically designed for textiles that come in direct contact with the skin, providing a new level of thermal comfort.

WAY STRETCH:

Elastic fabric that expands in all directions for greater comfort and freedom of movement.

MOISTURE MANAGEMENT:

A tissue structure that allows sweat and steam to be transferred out of the body through the tissue itself. It provides comfort and helps to keep body temperature stable.

COMPOSITION

Textile: 86% polyester and 14% elastane.

Elastic band: 83% Polyamide and 17% Elastane.

BENEFITS
