Looking for solutions to make the transition back to the classroom safe and easier?

With many schools across the country resuming in person instruction, precautions are needed to keep students and educators healthy. We've compiled simple recommendations from the CDC to slow the spread of COVID-19 and maintain a healthy school environment.

Keeping Surfaces Clean and Minimizing Contact

High touch surfaces are a breeding ground for germs. The CDC recommends regular cleaning and disinfecting of commonly touched surfaces like door handles and drinking fountains. However, most people don't have the resources to clean surfaces each time it's been touched, that's why we've introduced our DFEND Antimicrobial Film.

DFEND Antimicrobial Film In Action

Using Copper Ionization, DFEND inhibits 99.9% of surface germs between cleanings. Copper is a superior biocide because it's effective at any humidity level or temperature.

It's also important to modify layouts and eliminate unnecessary contact where possible. Portal Touchless Door Opening is another useful touchless tool. Portal is the new standard for physical access that works with any low-energy door operator. Experience touchless entry, universal accessibility, and increased safety. 

 Physical Barriers and Guides

The CDC advocates for installing "physical barriers, such as sneeze guards and partitions, particularly in areas where it is difficult for individuals to remain at least 6 feet apart (e.g., reception desks)." The VZGuard Protective Barrier Shield and Multipurpose Activity Board is the perfect combination for classroom visibility and protection. VZGuard is a one piece, clear protective barrier to shield students and professionals that can easily be cleaned with soap & water.

 Recognizing Signs and Symptoms

Conducting daily health checks can help detect if any students or staff are experiencing COVID-19 systems. The reality is, having a person manually check temperatures is expensive and risky due to inability to properly social distance. Our TEMP Thermal Reader can monitor temperatures, enforce face mask policy, and use facial recognition to create real-time profiles. 

 A built-in infrared thermometer displays highly accurate and reliable readings by measuring forehead and facial skin surface temperature with no-contact.
