Over the summer the Acorn Works team has been installing hygiene protection screens in a number of office environments for customers across East Anglia.

These dividers, also known as sneeze screens or cough guards, can increase the safety of working areas by acting as a barrier between co-workers to reduce the transmission of airborne particles. Alongside ensuring adequate space between work stations, they are an essential part of creating a Covid-Secure work place.

When fabricated from clear transparent acrylic, colleagues are still able to maintain visual contact while workspaces are kept light and open.
