Sunglasses Make Great UV Safety Reminders in Winter

Make your winter promotions an awareness campaign on UV risks as well with custom sunglasses giveaways.

Winter is indeed the right time not to just talk about the fashion aspects of designer sunglasses but UV exposure risks as well.  Did you know that the UV exposure risks is maximum during winter? Snow reflects more UV rays than most other surfaces, thereby exposing the eyes to a high UV risk. Protecting the eyes against UV radiation is the primary purpose of wearing sunglasses. During winter , it is likely that, consumers may forget about UV protection. A simple reminder will help.

No Winter Break For UV Rays

According to reports, more than 80% of Americans wear sunglasses during  summer while only about one-third do so in the winter! It is understandable that people  often associate UV radiation with summer. However, the fact is that the invisible UV rays remain in the atmosphere in all 4 seasons including winter. Thus, you need not see a brighter and hotter sun  to be at UV risk! In fact, the pale winter skies can more easily hide the dangers of UV radiation from unsuspecting consumers.

Remember, UV rays do not take a winter break! Persistent exposure to UV rays can damage the eyes as much in winter as in summer. So hand out custom sunglasses to keep the outdoorsy audience safe and stylish while promoting your brand. Winter season is a great season to especially target skiers, snowboarders, and the like. Think of it as your opportunity to educate consumers about the need to always wear sunglasses.
