*Extra-wide bases.
*Guards from flying liquids or glass.
Working in the lab means hazards. Whether it's flying drops of liquid or glass, you are always pouring, opening, transferring or otherwise handling hazardous solvents, reagents, vials and chemicals. That's why it's so important to make it as easy as possible to protect yourself while executing certain potentially hazardous tasks.
Engineering ways to stay safe, like working behind a protective shield like the one shown above, keep you safe while allowing you to work freely and easily. A perfect combination.
These three popular biohazard shields or splash guards sit on the bench or in front of an instrument and provide a working space protected by angled, clear plastic. You can easily work behind it while putting an invisible shield between danger and your eyes and face.
