We exist for the cause

Best sun protection ever

"Since I bought this hat I no longer need to apply sunscreen to the top of ears or back of the neck. I wear this when doing gardening and I'm not left with that yucky sticky feeling. I also wear this hat when I swim in the sea! Love love love it! 5 stars Solbari!"

Steve - Melbourne, Australia

So wearable with peace of mind

"Very happy with my top, lovely colour and breathable fabric. Washes up well and is easy care. The thumbholes are also a great idea. The top is great for travel or the day out. Excellent customer service, with quick delivery."

Julie - New South Wales, Australia

Fabulous UPF50+ sun protection

"This is the best polo shirt I've purchased in years. I've been impacted with skin cancer related issues on my arms and shoulder. Thankyou for your great service to the community."

Allie - Palm Beach, USA

Comfortable to wear, even on hot days

"The shirt keeps me cool even on hot days. The thumb-hole design also protects the backs of my hands when necessary. I've had a number compliments about how good it looks on me."

Rebecca, Port Douglas, Australia

Why we created Solbari

Did you know not all fabrics protect the same from the sun? Research shows that ordinary clothing and hats may be equivalent to wearing SPF5 sunscreen.

Skin cancer accounts for 80% of all new cancers diagnosed each year in Australia. Skin cancer and melanoma is preventable in 95% of cases.

2 in every 3 Australians
will be diagnosed with skin cancer by the age of 70. Sun protective clothing is the best way to protect your skin.

Why do I need sun protective clothing?

All Solbari products offer the highest sun protection available in the World for fabrics blocking UVA and UVB rays.

Regular clothes and hats may be letting through harmful ultraviolet rays, leaving your skin exposed.

Medical experts recommend Solbari for optimal skin protection against the sun all day long.

What you need to know about how UVA and UVB rays affect your skin

Many of us see the ultraviolet (UV) index on weather reports and read about UV alerts at particular times of the day. But do you know what it actually means and how it affects you?

There are two main types of UV rays and both cause damage to skin cells. Ultraviolet light is a form of radiation invisible to the human eye. Ultraviolet wavelengths of sunlight are made up of UVB, which has shorter wavelengths and higher energy, and UVA, which has longer wavelengths and lower energy.

If skin cancer and melanoma is so serious why do so many people expose their skin to the sun?

This blog explores the reasons why despite the alarming increase in skin cancer rates the general public continue to expose their skin to the sun without protection. Reasons put forward include low levels of awareness of skin cancer, popular culture trends, the fact that we are living longer, spending more time outdoors, and concerns about Vitamin D.

Protecting our oceans from sunscreen chemicals: UPF 50+ sun protective clothing is the answer

This blog describes how sunscreen chemicals have adversely impacted the ecology of our oceans. Mineral based sunscreens are less impactful and are a better alternative. Dermatologists agree that UPF 50+ sun protective clothing is the best way to prevent sunburn, skin ageing and skin cancer without damaging the ocean.

How to pick the perfect sun hat for sun protection

This blog describes the features of a sun hat if you are looking to be protected from the sun, to prevent skin cancer, skin ageing and sunburn. The features of a sun hat which offer maximum sun protection include a UPF50+ rating, a broad brim and a neck flap. A UPF50+ broad brim sun hat is key to skin cancer prevention.
