Canopy tents with UV protection

The most important measurements to take

For textiles, UV protection is usually indicated as UPF (Ultraviolet Protection Factor). This same measurement is also used with regard to canopy tents, umbrellas and awnings. Specifically, it is used to inform consumers about the degree of UV protection of a particular product.

The UPF value according to the UV 801 standard breaks down as follows:

  • UPF 15 to 2: medium protection
  • UPF 25 to 50: high protection
  • UPF 50+: excellent protection

Always pay attention to the UPF value when purchasing a canopy tent. The scale stops at 50, so any value above that loses significance and is equated to 50+. If the value is below that, the risk of sunburn or overheating the inside of the canopy tent greatly increases, and such unprotecting textiles are therefore to be avoided.

in short

What exactly are UV rays?

Solar radiation reaching the Earth is divided into infrared rays (which are invisible and generate heat), visible rays (i.e., light) and UV rays. The latter, also known as ultraviolet rays, are invisible but contain the most energy and are subdivided into:

  • UVA rays (which reach the Earth unimpeded),
  • UVB rays (up to 10% of which reach the Earth),
  • and UVC rays (which do not reach the Earth, being stopped by the ozone layer).

Prolonged exposure in adults and even brief exposure for children to UV rays can trigger sunburn and rashes. Damage to skin cells leads to premature aging and, in severe cases, skin cancer. Sun protection therefore plays a key role in skin health, and adequate UV protection is essential.
