Covid-19 Impact on U.S. UPF Sun Protective Clothing Market Size to surge at 7.6% CAGR is expected to reach $1.05 Billion in 2027

U.S. UPF Sun Protective Clothing Market Growth & Trends

The U.S. UPF sun protective clothing market size is expected to reach USD 1.05 billion by 2027, exhibiting a CAGR of 7.6%, according to a new report by Grand View Research, Inc. Rapid technological advancements in the field of medical science have resulted in augmenting awareness regarding the harmful effects of the sun. Exposure to UV radiation is the primary factor responsible for causing skin cancer and contributing to skin aging amongst the populace in the country. Therefore, sun protection methods such as using sunscreen and wearing sun-protective clothing are essential for the prevention of skin cancer and related damaging effects.

The depletion of the ozone layer has reduced the natural atmospheric protection from the harmful ultraviolet radiation. Rising awareness regarding the dangers of excessive exposure to the sun is expected to boost research activities in the textile industry for the development of UPF UV protective clothing.

Initially, these clothes were designed for babies and children swimwear; however, the development in design and increased awareness regarding UV protective clothing has resulted in its adoption by adults. Limited durability of sunscreen lotions (the need to reapply sunscreen after 120 minutes) has resulted in boosting the demand for sun protective clothing.
