TROPIC, technical trousers with certified UV protection

We know that prolonged exposure to ultraviolet (UV) rays poses a risk to skin health, and those who regularly work outdoors are particularly susceptible. To mitigate this risk, it is essential to use personal protective equipment (PPE) that includes technical clothing with certified shielding properties. For this reason, Kapriol has decided to add the new TROPIC trousers with UPF50+ protection to its product range. Let's take a closer look at what we are talking about: UV rays, in particular UVA and UVB components, are responsible for skin damage, which is why wearing protective clothing is the ideal choice. The effectiveness of a fabric against UV radiation is measured by the Ultraviolet Protection Factor (UPF), according to international standards. A high UPF value indicates a greater ability of the fabric to block the penetration of UV rays. For example, trousers with UPF 50 guarantee effective protection even in conditions of intense and prolonged sun exposure, much like using a high protection sunscreen. Let's summarise the main features of the new TROPIC trousers, available in three colours: beige, grey and orange. High-density fabric and dense weave structure for UPF-certified UV protection for real protection. Optimised thermal comfort and breathability for prolonged use in hot environments. Ergonomic design to ensure freedom of movement. Ideal for road workers and construction sites, technicians and maintenance workers in outdoor environments, agricultural and forestry personnel, and recreational activities with high sun exposure. Protect your skin, wear Kapriol safety.
