  Higgins Industries, Inc./ BFX Textiles : is a manufacturer of primarily knitted apparel products that include tees, polo shirts, active apparel and sweatshirts. The BioShield products are consistent with Higgins Industries commitment to environmentally sound technology. In 1990 they were honored at the United Nations by UNEP and the Fashion Guild, and received acknowledgement in 1997 from the President's Council on Sustainable Development for their development of environmentally sound textile chemicals. Higgins introduced a UV sun protective clothing process called "BFX". Certified and tested by International UV Testing Laboratories at Auburn University, this BFX process has received a 50+UPF rating, the highest International rating level available. It is estimated 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.
