Coldblack

Home › Technology › Coldblack

Dark colours are known to heat up in direct sunlight more than light colours because they absorb both the visible and invisible elements of the sun’s rays. coldblack® is a special fi nishing technology for textiles that reduces heat build-up on dark fabrics.

Many textiles that are worn in summer or in the sunshine offer poor protection from damaging UV rays. The new coldblack® generation now guarantees a minimum UV protection of UPF 30 when applied for any textile* in any colour without affecting the look or feel of the product.

* Important: the UPF value can vary depending on structure, thickness and material. Depending on the article, Schoeller fabrics can achieve values of UPF 50+ (exact results can be requested by giving the article number).

The advantages

  • Optimal protection from heating up due to sunlight
  • Textiles stay cool to the touch
  • Reliable protection from UV rays (minimum UPF 30)
