An innovative approach was made to introducing new novel eco-friendly herbal oil treated UV protective finish on Bamboo 100%, Tencel 100% and Bamboo/Tencel 50:50 fabrics. The three herbal oils were selected and treated on all the three fabrics. The fabrics are taken for UV test using a spectrophotometer. The untreated and treated fabrics are then evaluated.
