In order to keep up with today's ever-changing global and local health crises, cashier safety shields, sometimes known as safety dividers, serve as unobtrusive barriers that provide an additional layer of protection between checkout clerks and customers. Used in grocery and convenience stores, retail stores, pharmacies and more, cashier safety shields provide the necessary shield to prevent the spread of germs and bacteria, especially those associated with infectious diseases.

These protective safety shields are available in a number of different sizes and can be installed directly onto existing checkout counters. Performance plastics are the preferred materials for cashier safety dividers as they give the appearance and function of glass while maintaining better clarity and higher impact strength. They are also lighter weight and offer improved design flexibility and easy installation.

Piedmont Plastics offers a number of ideal solutions including acrylic, polycarbonate and laminates that can be easily cleaned with common disinfectants without “crazing” or damaging the material. Additionally, anti-scratch and other specially formulated coatings are available depending on the requirements of the application.

Piedmont Plastics has invested in and planned for consistent availability of materials across our branch network, significantly reducing published manufacturer lead times. Additionally, our business is built to make inventory transfers among our branches fast and simple, and with over 48 stocking locations throughout North America, we can easily transfer materials among our branches to meet the immediate needs of our customers.
