The Kocotree Mint Sunscreen Coat innovatively introduces the concept of "thorough physical protection" and replaces chemical additives with different techniques to integrate sun-protective, cooling, quick-drying, and antibacterial functions, becoming a children's sun-protective coat that is safe, clean, and high-performance.
The product uses titanium-dioxide light factor to become inherently UV-resistant, achieving the effect of multi-band protection. After 1,000 washes, its UPF value retains 453+, which can block 99.7% of UV rays to protect children's delicate skin and prevent the risk of sunburns. In addition, it uses broadband photon irradiation to change the yarn's molecular structure to form a super-antibacterial barrier, which can retain an antibacterial effect, far exceeding 7A level after 1,000 washes, to make the sun-protective coat safer and cleaner and protect children's health.
Compared to traditional sun-protective coats with chemical additives, we've incorporated a cooling factor into the yarn core to create an inherently cool yarn with a cooling factor of 0.32, exceeding 93% of the national standard, making the sun-protective coat suitable for outdoor activities such as urban travel and camping. The porous hollow yarn can rapidly expel moisture to the surface of the coat to achieve a level 3 quick-drying effect (tested after 1,000 washes). This, combined with a breathable mesh design in the underarms and other sweat-prone areas, allows for rapid heat dissipation and thermal regulation, keeping your body cool and dry.
The product is minimalist and lightweight without redundant details. Matched with the microbat design, it is loose enough to fit different body shapes and allows for freedom of movement. It is also equipped with a food-grade ABS whistle for children to call their parents in an emergency for quicker positioning, preventing the occurrence of dangerous situations.
