UV Protection Clothing enters the 22nd century with innovation

The demands of climate change and environmental pollution on us humans are present. The iQ Company provides an answer with its new collection "FREE: clothing for modern people in a changing world". The German textile manufacturer wants nothing less than the most sustainable clothing worldwide.

The small manufacturing company from the Rheingau region counters the increasing global warming with ultra-light shirts. iQ UV prevents the overexploitation of resources with the predominant use of recycled materials. The extremely breathable fabrics are only 110 grams per square metre, 83% of which is recycled from old fishing nets and carpets. The additional 17% elastane brings the high wearing comfort and adaptability of the products to any body type. The manufacturer recommends its clothing for temperatures between 25 and 37 degrees Celsius.

FREE is freedom, the freedom to be out in the sun at any time. Because - hard to believe - but the extremely light and thin shirts also reduce the risk of skin cancer with the highest UV protection 50+. FREE is an innovation of the textile industry and a contribution to a healthy future.

The "iQ UV" brand has focused on UV prevention for 20 years. The sporty-casual collections for leisure, outdoor, water sports, beach and work protection have the highest UV standard. The company pays attention to environmental protection and sustainability, producing its UV protective clothing from recycled PET bottles or old fishing nets with OEKO Tex Standard 100. A high level of wearing comfort and a pleasant, cooling effect are, in addition to the protective effect, the reason why iQ UV shirts, UV caps, UV hats, as well as UV neck protection for helmets are popular.
