UPF Rating System
The UPF rate indicates how much of the sun's UV radiation is absorbed by the fabric. For example, a fabric with a UPF rating of 40 only allows 1/40th of the sun's UV radiation to pass through it. This means that this fabric will reduce your skin's UV radiation exposure by 40 times (97,5% UV block) in areas where the skin is protected by the fabric.
