When our first child was born, it became obvious: we needed clothing capable of protecting children effectively from UV rays, without compromising comfort or style.
The birth of UVEA
This is how UVEA was born – a French brand dedicated to UV-protective clothing certified UPF 80. Our mission: to offer everyone – women, men, and children – a textile protection that is effective, durable, and comfortable to wear. Quality and durability We selected the most high-performance fabrics: tested, resistant, certified UPF 80. This strictest standard in the world ensures our garments keep protecting even after multiple washes and exposures. Among our flagship products, the long-sleeve UV-protective women’s shirt and the recycled men’s swimsuitembody our will to combine technologyand environmental responsibility.
A complete range for the whole family Over time, our collection has grown to meet every need: Women’s clothing, elegant and technical, Men’s clothing , designed for sport and the sea, A children’s lineto protect the youngest, and UV-protective accessories to complete everyday protection.
