The fabrics we use for covertogs are chlorine resistant. That doesn't mean they are chlorine proof, but with the right care, they will last much longer than most swimwear that contains elastane. Elastane is the stretchy fibre that gives the fabric its stretch and its these fibres that chlorine breaks/destroys - especially if your swimwear is not rinsed out with fresh clean water immediately after your swim.
The UPF (ultraviolet protection factor) is a numerical rating given to clothing to indicate how effectively the fabric blocks ultraviolet (UV) radiation. A UPF rating of 25 means that only 1/25th (or 4%) of the UV radiation can penetrate the fabric. Unlike SPF, which only expresses a sunscreens protective value in terms of limited wavelengths of light, UPF applies to a range of broad spectrum UVA and UVB radiation. The highest UPF rating a garment can be assigned is 50+. A piece in this range is determined as providing “excellent” protection from UV radiation. You can read more about this on my blog here
