Protective Screens

Protective Screens provide a clear physical barrier between staff and customers, helping you maintain hygiene and social distancing in busy commercial spaces. This range includes food-safe hygiene screens, sneeze guards and assisted service gantry glass suitable for counters, serveries and tills. Ideal for restaurants, cafes, delis, canteens, hotels, retail and office reception areas across Ireland, they support safer service without blocking visibility. Durable materials and professional finishes ensure long-term reliability in demanding hospitality environments.

• Counter-top hygiene screens and sneeze guards for tills, bars and reception desks.
• Assisted service gantry glass for hot and cold food counters and self-service lines.
• Freestanding and mobile protective screens for flexible layouts and temporary setups.
• Food-safe designs suitable for use directly over prepared dishes and buffet displays.
• Robust construction from clear, easy-clean materials for high-traffic commercial use.
• Options in multiple widths and configurations to suit existing counters and servery units.

How to choose the right Protective Screens

• Measure your counters, tills and servery units to select screens with the correct width and height for full coverage.
• Decide between fixed gantry glass for permanent food service counters and freestanding units for flexible or seasonal layouts.
• Check that materials are food-safe and suitable for use above open food if installing over buffets or hot counters.
• Consider how customers and staff will pass items through, choosing models with cut-outs or pass-through sections where needed.
• Match the style and frame finish to your front-of-house design for a professional, unobtrusive appearance.
• Assess traffic levels in your venue and choose heavier-duty screens for busy canteens, hotels and retail checkouts.

Care and maintenance

• Clean clear panels regularly with non-abrasive cloths and suitable glass or acrylic cleaners to maintain visibility.
• Avoid harsh chemicals or scouring pads that can scratch or cloud transparent surfaces.
• Inspect fixings, brackets and gantry supports frequently to ensure screens remain stable and secure.
• Wipe down contact areas and cut-outs throughout service to support hygiene and infection control.
• Follow manufacturer guidance for any heated gantry components, including regular safety checks.
• Store mobile or spare screens upright and protected from impacts when not in use to prevent damage.
