Does My Business Need Sneeze Guards?

Right now, it is important to take extra precautions to help keep your business safe for your employees and customers. People are using face masks, face shields, and other PPE products to stay healthy. Another product that businesses are using is sneeze guards.

What is a Sneeze Guard?

A sneeze guard is an acrylic or plexiglass barrier that businesses use to help fight the spread of pathogens. Because of the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic, businesses of all kinds are using sneeze guards. You have probably seen them in your local grocery stores and restaurants. Many businesses place them at their checkout counter, front desks, or help stands. This limits exposure while allowing your company to safely interact with costumers and conduct business.

Why should my business use sneeze guards?

The CDC recommends that companies practice social distancing which includes staying 6 feet apart from others. But in some cases, social distancing may not be possible. Sneeze guards are one of the only tools that allow employees to interact safely with their customers when social distancing becomes difficult. These barriers create added protection to gloves and a mask.

Custom Sneeze Guards

While many companies offer pre-made sneeze guards, your company may need sneeze guards that are custom made to fit your environment. Unfortunately, it is unknown how long it is going to be until customers can enter a business without safety precautions. Businesses are now investing in sneeze guards and partitions that are built specifically for their building.
