Sneeze Guards - Frequently Asked Questions(FAQ)

What is a sneeze guard?

A sneeze guard or sneeze screen is a clear protective barrier designed to protect against the spread of airborne bacteria and viruses. It acts as a shield between people, reducing the risk of spreading COVID-19. Sneeze guards are used in situations where 2-metre social distancing guidelines can’t be met, such as at till points, on food areas and between desks.

What is a sneeze guard made of?

Sneeze guards are typically made from plastic, such as acrylic, Perspex or PVC. These materials are more durable and provide a clearer view than glass designs. All sneeze guards are available in frameless and framed designs using metal, wood and plastic to suit various businesses.

When is a sneeze guard required?

Sneeze guards or sneeze screens are not required by law. However, Government guidelines state that we should use shields between people to create a physical barrier when 2m social distancing isn’t possible. Dependent on your business, you should use sneeze guards to separate staff and customers, such as at till points, desks and restaurant tables. In non-customer facing work environments, sneeze guards can reduce prolonged contact between staff by placing them between desks, office equipment, and communal areas.

What height is a sneeze guard?

Sneeze guards are available in varying heights to meet your business requirements. Shorter counter sneeze guards range from 59cm to 1m in height for tables and till points. Freestanding sneeze guards are available up to 2m tall to offer maximum protection while standing, such as between café queues and to separate workspaces.

How thick should sneeze guards be?

There are no guidelines advising on the thickness of sneeze guards. All our sneeze guards start from as little as 5mm thick, offering durable and lightweight protection against the spread of COVID-19 and other airborne viruses.
