Sneeze Guards, also known as Health Shields, are designed to protect the health and safety of your staff and customers. Manufactured right here in Carrum Downs, Melbourne, from local and imported products.

Installation is easy to follow and require 3 simple hand tools, an Allen key which is included, a Screw Driver and Scissors.

Designed using our V-Slot Extrusion, our Sneeze Guards can be customised for every application, from desk mount shields in office applications, to standing health shields for production lines, and of course bench mount health shields for counter sales. Modular by design, every component from the frame, brackets and screws, to the acrylic sheets can be replaced within minutes.

Before starting any build, it is always a great idea to get organised. Start by unpacking your kit and checking it against the BOM (Bill of Materials). If you find any parts missing, please contact Maker Store as soon as possible.
