Vapor Apparel, N. Charleston, S.C., recently announced its Solar line of shirts has earned the Skin Cancer Foundation’s seal of recommendation.
Offered in an array of sublimation-certified colors, the Vapor Solar Long Sleeve now is recognized as UV protectant.
The Skin Cancer Foundation grands its seal of recommendation to products that meet its specific criteria for effective UV protection. To earn the seal, a manufacturer must provide scientific data showing its product sufficiently and safely aids in preventing sun-induced skin damage. The data then is reviewed by a volunteer committee of photobiologists.
“We are extremely pleased to be making this announcement,” says Brandon Barber, director of manufacturing, Vapor Apparel. “Our customers in North America and Europe have another reason to recommend our products to their most discerning clients.”
“Clothing is the first line of defense against the sun’s harmful ultraviolet rays and an important part of a complete sun-protection regimen,” says Deborah S. Sarnoff, president of the Skin Cancer Foundation. “We’re happy to welcome another great clothing brand to the seal of recommendation program, our flagship consumer initiative.” — J.L.
