UPF 15 indicates that the fabric blocks roughly 93% of UV rays and allows about 7% of available UV radiation to pass through.UPF 10 to 30 = Fair ProtectionUPF 30 to 50 = Good Protection UPS 50+ = Excellent Protection Quantity Information: Quantity = number of continuous yards., Orders of more than 10 yards may ship in more than 1 piece.
