This product is made out of Polystyrene that has
a UV additive which provides UV protection for 5 years plus. UV Ray
and Fluorescent light protection is based on minimal, to light exposure for 5
years or more. It has been estimated that 8 hours of fluorescent light
emitted UV bandlength radiation is equivalent to 1 minute of sunlight UV ray
exposure. For even longer UV Ray protection, we recommend our
25+ year baseball holders that are made out
of Acrylic.
Note: Be aware of Cheap Imitations. Make sure
there is a UV
Certification Report on any of the UV Baseball Holders you buy
to be sure that it is in fact UV Protectant! Our holder is
stamped "UV" on the bottom to designate "UV Protection".
1. How do you know which of Pro-Mold's
baseball cubes are UV protected and which ones are not? Both products look
identical. Answer: The UV protected baseball cube has "UV" stamped on
the bottom of it.
2. Why should I store all my baseballs
in the Pro-Mold Ball Cube instead of another brand? Answer: The
Pro-Mold Ball Cube is made in the USA with high quality raw materials from
leading American polymer (plastic) manufactures including Dow Chemical and
BASF. Many of the imported baseball cubes are made from a low grade material
using a lot of regrind which give their parts a blue tint and less optical
clarity.
