Technical Features & Benefits

It's NOT Polyester!

Our fabrics are an innovative blend of nylon and spandex.

UV Protection Does Not Wash Out 

Our fabrics are not dipped, sprayed or washed with UV protective chemicals - as a result there is nothing to wash away.

Quick Dry Fabric 

Fabric has cooling effect when wet with sweat or water. Fabric is excellent for protection while enjoying the beach.

Blocks 98% of Sun's Rays 

Translates to excellent UV ratings. All BloqTek fabrics provide a minimum of UPF 50+ - assuring peace of mind with UV protection across all colors and styles.  

Lightweight 

Great for keeping cool on hot days and perfect for layering garments during cold months. 

Travel Friendly 

BloqUV packs small and creases come out when garment is hung.

Soft Fabric 

Our BloqUV apparel is soft for all-day wear and comfort. 

4-Way Stretch 

Provide recovery and greater freedom of motion and durability with your garment. 

UV Lab Tested 

Every batch and color are tested by independent UV laboratory both wet and dry. We have UPF levels on each color in our collection. 

Coral Reef Safe 

With BloqUV you don't have to apply sunscreen (only on exposed areas). The majority of popular sunscreen brands contain extremely harmful chemicals that cause irreversible damage to coral reefs and marine life.

Chemical Free UV Protection 

UV Chemicals are NOT added to our fabrics to achieve UPF levels. BloqTek fabric is manufactured without UV chemicals, maintaining UV protection throughout the life of the garment. 

Moisture Wicking 

Pulls moisture away from the skin using tiny, built-in capillaries. Moisture is drawn to the exterior of the fabric, which makes it easier to evaporate and cooler for the user.
