4 tips for choosing beach umbrellas
1. UV protection
It’s important to protect your skin from UV rays existing in sunlight. Ultraviolet (UV) radiation is a form of non-ionizing radiation that is emitted by the sun and artificial sources. While UV rays have some benefits for people, including the creation of Vitamin D, they also can cause health risks.
SPF (sun protection factors) is the best standard to help you choose the right beach umbrella. If it normally takes 10 minutes for your skin to burn without coverage, an SPF 15 beach umbrella prolongs the time by 15 to 150 minutes. A sun umbrella physically blocks UV rays to protect your skin. SPF50+ is the common performance of a beach umbrella.
2. Fabric
Although beach umbrellas have various sizes and styles, the most important part is the fabric. As the largest part of the beach umbrella, the fabric can significantly affect the sunshade and protection effect of the beach umbrella.
