Holding
Splashskins by MadMax Up to the Light
(Potomac, MD; November 7,
2008) UV
(ultraviolet) protective swimwear has proven its worth in
the United States and around the globe. Dermatologists
recommend fabric coverage as the best protection for
those who will be out under the sun's harmful rays.
Children and teenagers have more sensitive skin than
adults do, and over 80% of a person's lifetime exposure
to the sun occurs by the age of eighteen. UV protective
swimwear, originated in Australia, has risen in
popularity as more and more parents consider the health
factors and everyday practicality of purchasing
high-quality UV protective swimwear and clothing for
their children.
However, not all so-called UV
protective swimwear and clothing perform as advertised.
How can consumers be assured they are really getting the
protection that such garments promote? UV protection is
guaranteed through an established leader in the UV
swimwear market: Splashskins
by MadMax. Splashskins
are made of the highest quality, 50+ UPF rated fabrics
available. It should be noted that 50 Ultraviolet
Protection Factor is the highest rating given to fabric
and equates to at least 97.5% UV blockage. The standard
to which the fabric is tested is AS/NZS 4399:1996; the
standard developed in Australia. "Our policy is a 100%
guarantee to consumers purely through the construction of
our products," says Amy Fowler, owner and creator of the
Splashskins
line.
Along with the high-quality UV
fabric, Splashskins swimwear is adorned with chunky
zippers and sewn with double-stitched seams. Splashskins
by MadMax suits are brightly colored, including
Turquoise, Pink, and Sea Blue. Solid colors are often
paired with the swimwear line's signature bold patterns.
Children wearing Splashskins can easily be spotted in any
body of water or at a distance, making it easier to find
them in a busy beach or pool area. With such features -
stitching, bold colors and stylish patterns such as
'Liquid Teal' and 'Storm,' Splashskins swimwear and
accessories provide long-lasting quality and protection
for families.
Splashskins by MadMax are available
in one-piece Unisuits as well as 'Splashshirts' and
'Splashshorts' separates with coordinating hats and
sunglasses. View the line of UV-protective swimwear
