1. iQ UV: How did you become aware of us?
J. Dufner: As a tennis player and tournament participant, I often spend hours in the sun. This poses significant risks to the skin. Therefore, I was looking for certified safe sun protection clothing. Initially, I discovered IQ-UV on the internet and ordered some caps. Later, I encountered IQ-UV at a trade fair for occupational safety and personal protective equipment, where I could learn more about the products. That was very convincing. Since then, I frequently wear IQ-UV shirts, caps, and other products.
2. iQ UV: Why did you choose our sun protection clothing?
J. Dufner: Wearing safety-tested and certified protection from specialists was crucial for me. I place great importance on the excellent blend of fashionable style and functional technical fiber technology.

Why a UV Protection Neck Scarf is so Important A UV protection neck scarf is an essential accessory to reliably protect you and your family from harmful sun exposure. The skin on the neck and nape is often unprotected and particularly sensitive. A UV protection scarf provides a simple and effective solution that goes far beyond conventional clothing. Unlike sunscreen, which must be reapplied regularly, a UV protection scarf offers long-lasting protection that doesn’t fade with sweat or light rain. Whether hiking, cycling, at the beach, or simply in everyday life – with a high-quality UV protection neck scarf, you can enjoy sunny days worry-free while preventing sunburn and long-term skin damage. This protection is TÜV-tested and guarantees you safety you can rely on. The Versatility of a UV Protection Neck Scarf The possible uses of a UV protection neck scarf are virtually unlimited, making it a true multitasker. You can wear it classically as a scarf to protect your neck and décolleté from the sun. But that’s not all. On particularly hot days, it can quickly be transformed into a headscarf that shields your scalp from intense radiation. Many models, often designed as tube scarves, can also be worn as headbands, wristbands, or even as a temporary face covering. This flexibility makes the UV protection scarf the ideal companion for athletes, outdoor enthusiasts, and families. Especially for children in sizes 92 to 100, such a scarf is a practical and reliable protection that can accompany every adventure. Materials and Comfort: What Makes a Good UV Protection Scarf A crucial factor for the effectiveness and comfort of a UV protection scarf is the material. Our scarves are made of innovative, lightweight fabrics specifically developed to provide a high UV protection factor (UPF). At the same time, the materials are extremely breathable, so you won’t overheat even during physical activity. Moisture is quickly wicked away from the skin, and the fabric dries in no time. The result is a cool and comfortable wearing experience, even on the hottest days. Many of our products are also made from recycled materials, such as old fishing nets. By choosing one, you’re opting not only for a functional but also for a sustainable UV protection neck scarf. For the Whole Family: UV Protection Scarves for Babies and Children The delicate skin of babies and children requires the best possible protection. A UV protection scarf is the perfect complement to the rest of your UV protective clothing. Especially for the little ones who cannot protect themselves yet, a UV protection scarf provides a safe barrier against the sun. The soft and skin-friendly materials are ideal for sensitive children’s skin. Thanks to the elastic fit, the scarf sits comfortably and securely without slipping – whether playing on the playground or splashing in the kids’ pool. In sizes 92/98 and up, you will find suitable models that not only protect but also impress with child-friendly designs. Care and Durability of Your UV Protection Neck Scarf A high-quality UV protection neck scarf is an investment that pays off in the long run. Our products are designed to withstand the demands of an active lifestyle. The materials are durable, colorfast, and retain their shape and, above all, their protective function even after frequent washing.
