How do you create a desk sneeze guard?
A desk sneeze guard is a great way to protect yourself and your employees from splashes and sprays or provide privacy dividers between desks in an open office. ShopPOPdisplays carries a large selection of barriers and sneeze guards as well as DIY components to build your desk sneeze guards. To get started, measure your desktop to determine the sneeze guard size.
You can build custom desk sneeze guards using our precut acrylic sheets and connectors. The 3-panel sneeze guard is a popular configuration that will require one main panel, two side panels, and six L-shape connectors. If you are making a sneeze guard for an irregular shape desk, use our living hinge connectors that are flexible and contour to different angles. Finally, use our T-shape gripper connectors to mount the sneeze guard to your desktop.
What is the best material for an office sneeze guard?
Clear acrylic plastic is the best material for an office sneeze guard. Acrylic plastic offers a beautiful glass-like look at half the weight and increased durability. Polycarbonate plastic is another good choice that is similar to acrylic plastic but provides additional toughness and flame resistance which is required by some building codes and use cases.
