Restaurant Sneeze Guard: Safely Reopening America

The New Normal.

Due to COVID-19, restaurants have been instructed to comply with social distancing guidelines for guest safety. These guidelines include staying 6 feet away from another person, abstaining from large group gatherings, and taking extra care in the cleaning of surfaces that many people come into contact with. Sometimes staying 6 feet apart is not practical for the space. In those instances, the CDC has recommended installing safety partitions to separate individuals in tighter spaces. Safer-at-Home orders have been put into place across America resulting in the closing of businesses. With hope for the future, these businesses are looking into all possible ways to reopen and do so safely. Egg + Flour, a pasta restaurant in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, has prepared their business for reopening by installing restaurant sneeze guard safety partitions from Goff’s Enterprises.

Egg + Flour was looking for a solution to keep employees and guests safe in their restaurant. With the guideline in place to stay 6 feet apart from the next person, Egg + Flour would have had to eliminate half of their seating to open by these standards. This would heavily limit their capacity. This restaurant needed a solution that is both effective and easy to maintain, with customer and employee safety in mind.

Goff’s Personal Safety Partition was designed to separate areas of close contact between individuals. This will provide guests and employees with a safe and comfortable space to dine and work in. These restaurant sneeze guards will also allow Egg + Flour to operate at higher capacities while meeting CDC Guidelines.

"Personal safety partitions at Egg + Flour help them maintain their high standard of cleanliness while maximizing capacity to meet CDC Guidelines."

The Solution.

Personal Safety Partitions shield against airborne contaminants caused by a person’s cough or sneeze. This prevents the spread of viruses creating better public safety. With a minimally intrusive design, the restaurant sneeze guard allows full visibility. In addition, safety partitions also create a sound barrier between users without being distracting.

Installed at the service counter or point-of-purchase, Goff’s Personal Safety Partitions qualify as personal protective equipment, by providing a safety barrier between employees and guests. Upon reopening, Egg + Flour can go about business as usual with confidence. Most importantly, this means if someone coughs or sneezes, guests are protected from contaminants. Just as employees would wipe down the counters or tables, cleaning and sanitizing the restaurant sneeze guard is quick and easy. This is a safe solution for businesses to keep a clean surface on both sides of the clear PVC partition.

Guidelines stating that people must remain 6 feet apart causes the issue of reduced capacity for restaurants like Egg + Flour. Increase capacity and group accommodations by using both hanging and standing restaurant sneeze guards throughout the dining area. Portable Personal Safety Partitions are light weight and easily placed where desired.
