Aqualife PBT (Polybutylene terephthalate) fabric offers a breakthrough in Chlorine proof swimwear, providing Chlorine resistance without compromising on elasticity and wearability. This sublimation base dries quickly and is pleasant to wear, along with the fact that prolonged contact with Chlorine does not cause Aqualife to lose its elasticity, which frequently occurs in classic Elastane fabrics. The perfect solution for a high quality sublimation base, with the ultimate performance in chlorine resistance.
High quality Italian Polyester and PBT (Polybutylene terephthalate) blend stocked in solid colours. An Elastane free fabric that’s ideal for high performance and club swimwear, or any garment which is exposed to high levels of Chlorine thanks to its 100% Chlorine resistance. This fabric has a 2 way stretch and its soft feel and perfect wearability also make it the right choice for performance swimwear.
Swimwear fabric has been rigorously tested for sun protection and complies with Australian standards. It provides effective UV radiation (UVR) blocking, reducing your exposure to solar UVR. Depending on the fabric’s Ultraviolet Protection Factor (UPF) rating, it offers different levels of protection:
- Excellent protection (UPF 50 or 50+)
Remember that wearing swimwear with higher UPF ratings is essential, especially in Australia, where skin cancer rates are high. Additionally, consider covering exposed skin, wearing a hat, and using sunscreen for comprehensive sun safety.
