this year that in the United States, Melanoma cases will reach 47,700 with
deaths of 7,700. It is the fastest growing of all cancers, and among all
accidental deaths it has experienced the largest percentage of increase
from 1986 -1996, 22%. Textiles treated with the BFX protection block
98%-99% of the sun's harmful UVA & UVB rays. They
manufacture their own fabrics;
they fabric finish, assemble, print and dye. The
majority of their products are made from USA
components and assembled in Mexico. They also
offer a long staple Peruvian yarn in a cotton polo shirt.
They embellish the shirts by printing both in
Mexico and in the US. Their products are
distributed from their domestic distribution
facility, and they ship internationally.
They produced products under
their own branded names, "Higgins Natural" and "BFX",
and have also provided products for some of the major designers and retail
brand names in the industry.
