Our products offer no protection against infrared radiation because no damaging effect of infrared radiation has been known up to now, except in the cases of people heavily exposed to it, such as steelworkers. In contrast, the heat generated by insulation is a biological warning signal for the body to get out of the sun. Additionally, there are no corresponding filter substances that could be used in the products.
