In light of the current COVID-19 crisis the world is facing; it is more important than ever to ensure the safety of your employees and the customers that are visiting your business premesis.
With the social distancing rules that are in force by the UK Government, it has meant that many businesses have had to close their doors for the foreseeable future. The option of working from home is simply not possible in some sectors which have meant these industries have come to a complete halt.
Many businesses simply don't have the capability to allow all members of staff to remotely work from home due to the nature of their services and infrastructure of their company. Essential key workers have no choice but to continue to fight the fight against coronavirus whilst being at their place of work, on the front line.
As a result, all open businesses and workplaces are creating their own rules that fall in line with the social distancing measures the Government have put in place. This is to minimise the contact between each person and reduce interactions where possible.
We have seen many businesses change and adapt to the current climate and enforce safety measures so their business can keep operating. These include changing working hours, staggered or flexible shift patterns, job sharing, skeleton staff, no visitor policy, video conferencing, virtual meetings, as well as restrictions on the number of people allowed in the premises at any one time.
All of the above play a crucial role in keeping staff and visitors safe during this pandemic, however, there is more you can do, especially in customer-facing scenarios.
You can easily adapt your workspace to create partitions between your staff and visitors. We know how easily coronavirus can spread so by imposing a physical barrier you can significantly reduce the risk of an infectious sneeze or cough getting to your employees.
The most frequent question we are getting asked at the moment is what Types of Partition Screens are available that will keep our employees safe? Well, there is plenty on offer, we have the UK’s largest range of office partition screens and social distancing screens.
Our most cost-effective solution is the Roller Banner Clear Protective Divider. Available in just 72 hours, this portable protection screen can be used in a wide range of settings. Lightweight and easy to move to any location where a divider screen is needed.

Freestanding room dividers are ideal for blocking off restricted areas and maintaining a safe social distance between employees and the general public. They can be linked together to create a wall that directs foot traffic in a certain direction, or just as easily away from a restricted area.
You can choose from fabric-covered floor standing office screens or glazed screens, however, glazed screens are the most suitable for the environment we are currently faced with.
They each feature two stabilising feet that provide stability when in use. When more than one office screen is linked together, each individual partition only requires one stabilising foot, however, we supply two with each office screen so they are able to be used separately if required.
Transparent Partition Screens, also known as glazed screens or acrylic partitions. They are the most effective way of protecting your staff and the public from potential risks. Available as desk mounted and freestanding options, both benefit from wipable, easy-clean surfaces that help prevent the excessive spread of bacteria and germs.
See-through screen partitions enable you to create a workable barrier without compromising visibility, communication and service levels.
