The FS-1001-4 Face Shield by Innovative Automation provides total face protection from liquid splash and droplets for healthcare workers on the frontline and in large scale sectors such as industrial, laboratory, retail chains, manufacturing and more.
Many of Innovative’s Face Shields are distributed directly to healthcare professionals fighting the spread of Covid-19. This layer of protection is crucial to shield these frontline workers from infected droplets expelled when a patient coughs or sneezes. It is believed that respiratory droplets are a leading cause of Covid-19 virus transmission.
Our manufacturing team has engineered a comfortable and high-quality face shield to add to your staff’s PPE. Stock is available for large volume orders today, contact us to learn more about our bulk discounts. Minimum order quantity is 100 units.
Please Note: Orders below 100 units will be fulfilled by our distributor
This Canadian made face shield easily fits over protective eyewear, prescription glasses and masks. The lens is manufactured from an optically clear, low distorting, polyester film.
The face shield is lightweight and comfortable when worn for long periods of time. An anti-fog coating reduces fogging potential.
A soft polyurethane foam headband prevents respiratory droplets from entering from above. The headband, combined with an ultrasonically welded, latex-free head strap, securely positions the device on the wearer.
Innovative Automation begins looking into how we’re able to help in the fight against COVID19. Face shields are identified as an item we’re able to manufacture at our facility in Barrie, ON.
