Donite’s Fight Against COVID-19 Continues with Launch of Divider Screens

Leading industrial vacuum forming company, Donite Plastics has joined the fight against COVID-19 in recent months with a number of new products, designed and manufactured by the Saintfield-based company. 

Following the recent and much publicised release of the Head Box, the sophisticated thermoformed plastic box that prevents disease transmission between clinical staff and other patients, as well as a new range of visors, Donite Plastics then shifted their focus to prevent transmission of the deadly disease amongst employees within public sector bodies, educational authorities and schools and business organisations, once a return to the office is made. 

The company has launched a style of COVID divider screens, suitable for a variety of businesses and organisations. Featuring hanging, freestanding and counter divider screens, each screen can be made bespoke to the client’s specification.

Using WHO guidelines to create the product, the screens are designed to protect against viruses, coughs and sneezes; and reduce the risk of staff and customers contracting COVID-19.

The clear polycarbonate material, which is highly transparent and known for its use in high impact environments due to its durability and strength, provides a clear view between persons.

Donite Plastics Managing Director, Michael Knight, spoke about their newest range of products saying, “The onset of the Coronavirus had meant that lots of businesses are having to think outside the box and are using innovation to help in the fight against Coronavirus. Here at Donite Plastics, we have been consulting with people in the medical profession, as well as other relevant sectors, to see how we could add value and use our experience to assist. 

“Recently we changed our focus to those businesses that are now considering a return to office. We understand this is a nerve-wrecking time for many but we want to offer a solution for businesses to ensure a safe working environment on the inevitable return to the office.  

“Our range of COVID divider screens are of the highest quality and very competitively priced

We showcased the range at an Open Day on 9thJuly, and intend to host another on Monday, 17thAugust.”

Michael concluded, “The team here at Donite, in addition to their daily thermoforming tasks, has worked extremely hard ensuring the products are of the highest quality and fit for purpose and they are all delighted to be able to make a difference in the fight against COVID-19.”
