PES/PES Two-Component Yarn

SunShield is a skin-core structured yarn. The skin layer consists of bright PET and the core is made of super-dull polymer containing nanometric titanium dioxide. The titanium core shields against UV rays, providing superior protection from sun radiation. Furthermore, even when wet, this fabric solves the "see-through" problem, one of the biggest drawbacks of standard polyester. SunShield is the perfect solution for sun blocking applications.
