Brim ‘N Shade
by UVeto Australia

Turn a hard hat into full sun protection.

The UVeto Brim ‘N Shade is designed to upgrade standard hard hats with the coverage of a wide brim hat while maintaining site compliance. Combining a broad surrounding brim with an extended rear neck flap, it helps protect the face, ears and neck from prolonged UV exposure in harsh outdoor environments. Unlike simple neck flaps, the Brim ‘N Shade adds true overhead shading around the entire helmet, reducing direct sun exposure across multiple angles throughout the day. The generous 25cm neck flap extends protection down the back of the neck and upper shoulders, helping reduce one of the most common exposure points on site.

Built for industrial use, it attaches securely to most hard hats while remaining lightweight and comfortable for long shifts. The UPF50+ rated fabric complies with AS/NZS 4399:2019 sun protection standards, supporting site-wide UV management programs across construction, mining, utilities and infrastructure work. This is the solution for crews that need the protection of a wide brim hat… but can’t stop wearing hard hats.
