About island Tribe
Island Tribe sun protection products offer superior protection against the sun, especially for those who practise (water) sports. The products are not water-based, allowing a single application to provide 4–6 hours of protection in, under, near, and on the water.
Our products are available at leading outdoor and sports retailers and, of course, online through various webshops. Would you like to sell Island Tribe products as well? Please get in touch by emailing: info@islandtribe.eu
Thanks to their outstanding quality, Island Tribe is recommended by the Cancer Council Australia, Cancer Research UK, and CANSA. This makes the products highly suitable for people with sensitive skin, as well as for children and babies. Island Tribe was originally developed in South Africa and Australia—where the sun is particularly intense—to protect the many outdoor sports enthusiasts.
Hence the motto: island Tribe – Tame the Sun!
Because the production process of Island Tribe products is quite complex, they can only be produced in relatively small quantities. In return, you get a product that offers maximum protection against UVA and UVB radiation and is extremely water- and sweat-resistant. It’s therefore no surprise that many divers and snorkellers also choose Island Tribe—to protect both their skin and the oceans and coral reefs.
Island Tribe Europe
Thanks to our strong surf and kite culture, island Tribe Europe is based in the Netherlands. All sun protection products — including clear gel, clear gel spray, sun stick, lip balm, aftersun, and a specially developed SPF 50 Kids Clear Gel — are now available throughout the Netherlands and Europe.
Many other brands claim to be “water-resistant,” but in reality, they are not — or only partially so. This is often because they are developed on a water base. island Tribe Europe not only holds all the necessary certifications but also confidently provides research and test results to substantiate its “water-resistant” claim. Island Tribe Clear Gel was first developed in 1992 specifically for surfers and water sports enthusiasts.
Today, island Tribe offers a complete range of sun protection products, now sold in more than 25 countries worldwide.
