EN 13758-2:2003+A1:2006 (E) 4 Introduction Recent international research has shown that prolonged e
17、xposure of the skin to the sun can produce both short and long-term harmful effects. The major cause, ultraviolet radiation, can be significantly reduced by clothing. However, the level of protection offered by clothes varies considerably and is dependent on many factors. Most significant are the fa
18、bric properties and the design of the garments. EN 13758-2:2003+A1:2006 (E) 5 1 Scope This European Standard specifies the requirements for marking of clothing which are designed to offer the wearer protection against solar ultraviolet radiation exposure. 2 Normative references This European standar
19、d incorporates by dated or undated reference, provisions from other publications. These normative references are cited at the appropriate places in the text and the publications are listed hereafter. For dated references, subsequent amendments to or revisions of any of these publications apply to th
20、is standard only when incorporated in it by amendment or revision. For undated references the latest edition of the publication referred to applies (including amendments).

21、rposes of this European standard, the following terms and definitions apply: 3.1 solar ultraviolet radiation (UVR) electromagnetic radiation with wavelength between 290 and 400 nm 3.2 solar UV-A solar ultraviolet radiation with wavelength between 315 and 400 nm 3.3 solar UV-B solar ultraviolet radia
22、tion with wavelength between 280 and 315 nm 3.4 ultraviolet protection factor (UPF) ultraviolet protection factor (UPF) as determined by EN 13758-1 3.5 average UV-A transmission average UV-A transmission as defined by EN 13758-1 3.6 upper body the torso, from the base of the neck down to the hip, an

24、mpletely. Clothing designed to offer protection to the lower body shall at least cover the lower body completely. Clothing designed to offer protection to both the upper and lower body shall at least cover the upper and lower body completely. 4.2 UVR protection ! The UPF of all materials used for th
25、e clothing assembly shall be measured according to EN 13758-1. The lowest UPF value shall be larger than 40. The UVAaveragetransmission in the case of uniform samples or sample UVA transmission in the case of non-uniform samples determined according to EN 13758-1 shall be smaller than 5 %.“ 5 Markin

28、 item may be reduced with use or if stretched or wet.” UV protective clothing for which compliance with this standard is claimed can be marked with: the wording “provides UVA + UVB protection from the sun” It is recommended that a small leaflet is attached to the garment to explain the danger of UV
29、radiation exposure and the ability of the garment to reduce this exposure.

30、 a number of conflicting aspects: protection, marketability, comfort and aesthetic appeal. The aim is to ensure that garments cover significant areas of the body and use fabrics that are adequate. The minimum fabric requirements specified in this standard give sufficient protection in all but the mo
31、st extreme situations which are highly unlikely to be met in normal wearing circumstances, whilst the garment design specifications should ensure that merchandising remains viable. Furthermore, it does not radically conflict with existing national standards. blankBS EN 13758-2:2003BSI389 Chiswick Hi
