Haimer
From stay-at-home orders forcing businesses to close for months to businesses reopening and struggling to find personal protective equipment (PPE), COVID-19 has impacted the world in devastating ways and created new issues for people to face. In response, Haimer provided an innovative solution to help employees return to work safely.

The Haimer face shield helps minimize the spread of illnesses while providing comfort to the wearer. The adjustable visor is made of high-quality plastic which allows for repeatable use. The product is sustainable and environmentally friendly through easily replaceable visors and head cushions. It also fulfills PSA Regulation (EU) 2016/425 category II, respectively requirements of eye protection according to EN 166:2001, ANSI/ISEA Z87.1-2020, CSA Z94.3:20 to protect against droplets and splashes (partly applied).
The face shield is produced by injection molding on German machines. When the first shipment of the Haimer face shields arrived at Haimer USA, the team decided to donate masks to the Old Saybrook Dentist office in Old Saybrook, Connecticut. Upon receiving the donation, Dr. Paul Bied, DDS and his staff tried them out at the practice.
“It is definitely made to the highest quality,” Bied says. “It is very comfortable to wear.”
The Haimer face shield is suitable for production companies (industry and handcraft) and offices as the visual field is not limited.
