Businesses have been taking extra precautions lately for the well-being of their employees and customers. The Centers for Disease Control (CDC) recommends that employers should have a COVID-19 health and safety plan to protect employees that includes placing barriers (e.g., sneeze guard) between employees and customers and employees working in close proximity.
Rockford Systems, a specialist in industrial combustion safety solutions for companies that use thermal processes in their industrial operations, is helping organizations protect employee health and safety by launching its new GermBlock™ line of cough and sneeze shields.
GermBlock™ shields, designed for industrial, commercial, clean room, and retail settings, limit the spread of airborne droplets resulting from coughing, sneezing or speaking from reaching a nearby person, therefore helping to mitigate COVID-19 infection.
Constructed of heavy-duty clear 3/16" polycarbonate and 16-gauge 304 stainless steel framing with full penetration welds, the shields are offered in tabletop, floor standing, and extended-leg versions in popular sizes. The full penetration welds eliminate gaps or cracks that prevent bacterial build up. GermBlock™ shields are offered in standard, clean room, and custom models. The stainless-steel frame allows the shields to be washed down and sterilized per the CDC's recommendation for frequent cleaning.
GermBlock™ shields are 100% made in the USA. Orders can be turned around quickly to support customers with urgent bio protection needs.
