CARVART Introduces New Glass Screen to Reduce the Spread of COVID-19

In response to the COVID-19 pandemic, leading architectural glass products and hardware systems company CARVART has created glassSCREENS>Shield, a new collection of tempered glass protective screens that can be ordered and installed on the frontlines within a week.

These versatile non-porous shields prevent microbes from entering the surface and can withstand the harsh industrial-level cleaning products that are now a requirement. They are in high demand at public-facing businesses across North America that include pharmacies, healthcare facilities, grocery stores, banks, shippers, government institutions, and many others to protect both the essential employees and their customers.

The Inspiration

“The creation of glassSCREENS>Shield was the result of a phone call with a pharmacist friend,” stated CARVART CEO Edward Geyman. “They needed better protection and urgently requested a more effective screen. The CARVART team immediately jumped into action, and within a week, we were delivering the first screens. We’re honored to be able to use our expertise to do our part to help our community and brave network of essential workers.”

The Response

CARVART utilized their 20-plus years of industry-leading experience to react quickly to the growing need to limit exposure while essential personnel completed transactions. Their strength in design, engineering and fabrication allowed their team to be agile and quickly develop new customizable products, meeting functional needs while preserving CARVART’s focus on design and aesthetics. 

Geyman continues, “For CARVART, health and safety are a top priority both for our own teams and our clients. Our facilities are following guidelines to produce products to meet this demand with accelerated delivery and installation support.”

The Product

The glassSCREENS>Shield line includes three styles and multiple sizes of a freestanding Countertop unit, a single Full-Height unit and a foldable Full Height Double screen with various features such as Add- On Units, Transaction Windows, Protection Screens with Shutters, No Draft Speak Through Windows and Casters. As in all of the CARVART portfolio of One Common Thread solutions, these options are all customizable to meet specific onsite criteria.

The glassSCREENS>Shields are produced in Brooklyn, New York and out for national delivery within a week of ordering. While created specifically to combat the spread of COVID-19, the sleek and durable screens can easily be a permanent solution as businesses continue to adjust their employee safety measures.
