Balaclava Air
by UVeto Australia

Stay covered. Stay cool. Keep working. The Balaclava Air by UVeto Australia is designed for hot, exposed environments where airflow matters just as much as protection. Built with UPF50+ rated fabric and a breathable mesh panel across the nose and mouth, it helps shield workers from sun, dust and debris without trapping heat.

Unlike traditional balaclavas that can feel heavy or restrictive, this is made for movement, airflow and long shifts. It sits comfortably under helmets and hard hats, with adjustable panels that let users control coverage as conditions change. This is the layer you add when sunscreen and standard PPE aren’t enough to manage full-day exposure.

Best for:

• Construction, civil and road crews
• Mining, agriculture and outdoor industries
• Hot, dusty or high UV environments
• Long shifts in direct sun exposure
• Teams needing consistent, wearable sun protection

Pairs well with:

• UV protection sleeves → extend coverage to arms
• Hard hat attachments → integrate full head and neck protection
• Safety eyewear → protect eyes in high-glare environments
• Outdoor PPE systems → standardise site-wide sun protection

Features:

• UPF50+ rated polyester helps block harmful UV exposure
• Breathable mesh panel improves airflow around nose and mouth
• Adjustable face and side panels for flexible coverage
• Lightweight construction reduces heat build-up during extended wear
• Protects against dust, wind and airborne debris
• Stretch fit design sits comfortably under helmets or hard hats
• One size fits most for simple rollout across teams
• Machine washable for repeat daily use
