A sun cap features wider brims, neck flaps or added fabric coverage specifically to block UV exposure, while a standard cap prioritises style and branding over sun protection.

A wide-brim hat shields the ears, neck and face far more thoroughly than a standard peaked cap, which only covers the forehead and top of the head. Wide-brim and legionnaire-style hats generally provide better all-round coverage for roles or activities involving prolonged sun exposure.

Ladies and mens sun caps can be combined within the one order, useful for teams, families or workplaces needing a mix of fits and sizing across the same production run.

Sun beach hats made from straw-look, canvas or quick-dry fabric are a popular option for resorts, surf clubs and holiday venues selling or gifting branded headwear.

Embroidery generally holds up better than print on sun hats exposed to regular sun, sweat and moisture, with stitched logos resisting fading and cracking over time.
