UV-TRANSMISSIVE FABRIC, METHOD OF OBTAINING THE SAME AND GARMENT BEING MADE OF THE SAID FABRIC
The invention pertains to a fabric comprising a first yarn having a UV-A transmission of between 10 and 50 % while substantially blocking UV-B transmission, and at least a second yarn different from the first yarn, the yarns being interweaved such that the fabric has regular mesh openings that give rise to a transmission of the fabric of between 20 and 65 % for UV-A and between 3 and 20 % for UV-B. The invention also pertains to a method of making such a fabric and a garment being made using such a fabric.
