Coolibar is a world leader in sun protective clothing. We are introducing LEVEL OF COVERAGE guidelines to help you to choose the right level of coverage for your level of sensitivity to sun exposure. All of our products are designed to be layered onto each other, for example, a tank top is Level 1 but if you put on a jacket, you are covered at Level 3. All Coolibar products, whatever the level of coverage, protect you from 98% of UVA/UVB rays.
LEVEL ONE: BASIC COVERAGE
Clothing with limited coverage, suitable for complementing other protective wear but should not be the sole protection.
Items: Bikinis, tank tops, shorts, and short skirts.
LEVEL TWO: MODERATE COVERAGE
Items in this category offer a good level of protection by covering key areas but leave more skin exposed than the higher coverage categories.
Items: Short-sleeved shirts, capris, skirts/shorts below the knee, visors, and one-piece swimsuits.
LEVEL THREE: HIGH COVERAGE
These garments provide significant body coverage but might leave some parts exposed.
Items: Long-sleeved shirts, long sleeved swimsuits and swim tights, knee-length dresses, long pants, shawls, wide-brimmed hats that cover the neck and shoulders.
LEVEL FOUR: FULL COVERAGE
Garments in this category cover the majority of the body, offering maximum sun protection in terms of coverage.
Items: Gloves, gaiters and masks, sleeves, jackets or hoodies, umbrellas, and hats with flaps, as well as full-body swimsuits, and full-length dresses.
