Balaclava
by UVeto Australia

Description

Full coverage. No weak spots. The UVeto Balaclava is built for environments where exposure is constant and partial protection isn’t enough. Designed to cover the face, neck and crown in one layer, it helps reduce risk from UV, wind, dust and airborne debris across the areas most commonly left exposed.

Made from UPF50+ rated polyester and compliant with AS/NZS 4399:2020, it gives you a reliable, standardised solution for sun protection across teams. The fold-down front design allows users to adjust coverage based on conditions, without removing the garment or interrupting work. This is what you specify when full-day exposure becomes the issue, not just heat.
