Why choose Solbari?

With our active, outdoor lifestyle and the intensity of the Australian sun, we know a thing or two about sun protection.

Australia invented sunscreen and the UPF rating system for fabrics. Australia is world renowned for being the global leader in skin cancer prevention, diagnosis and treatment.

We started Solbari to create a sun protective clothing range that we would want to wear ourselves. We believe it is possible to enjoy the outdoors in style whilst staying protected from the sun.

Solbari UPF 50+ sun protective clothing incorporates fabrics which have been tested and rated UPF 50+ by the AustralianGovernment, but also includes design and function in mind to maximise the level of sun protection coverage and comfort.

Our horizons have expanded since we started as we are now the Australian leaders in sun protective clothing with customers in over 70 countries, but we remain focused on our original goal. We have expanded our UPF 50+ sun protective range to cater to people with sensitive skin conditions including eczema, psoriasis and lupus.

Our customer reviews from Google and Facebook are consistently above 4/5 and have been the recipient of the Skin & Cancer Healthy Skin award on multiple occasions.

What you need to know about how UVA and UVB rays affect your skin

Many of us see the ultraviolet (UV) index on weather reports and read about UV alerts at particular times of the day. But do you know what it actually means and how it affects you?

There are two main types of UV rays and both cause damage to skin cells and contribute to skin cancer. Ultraviolet light is a form of radiation invisible to the human eye. Ultraviolet wavelengths of sunlight are made up of UVB, which has shorter wavelengths and higher energy, and UVA, which has longer wavelengths and lower energy.

Why you should wear sunscreen everyday

Your skin is your body’s largest organ and it needs the best protection against the harsh effects of the environment. Constant exposure to the sun’s ultra violet (UV) rays can lead to damage to your skin such as wrinkles, age spots and skin cancer. Sun damage is cumulative, which means that the damage to the skin caused by the sun’s UV rays all adds up.
