Efficient protection against harmful UV radiation for human can be ensured by wearing garment made from bast fibers: linen and hemp, which also provide high use comfort thanks to high hygroscopicity, air permeability and cool touch. This paper describes application of nanolignin as a UV blocker for linen fabrics. Lignin with nano structure obtained by ultrasonic treatment was padded on linen fabrics. The linen fabrics covered by nanolignin show also antibacterial properties. Thanks to nanolignin application for finishing process of linen fabrics, it is possible to obtain multifunctional textile products with the following additional properties: UV barrier, antibacterial, antistatic properties guaranteeing positive effect on human physiology.
