Face shields are a type of personal protective equipment (PPE) designed to protect the wearer’s face from potential hazards, such as splashes, droplets, and particles. Face shields are typically made of transparent plastic and are worn over the face to provide a barrier between the wearer and the environment. They are commonly used in medical settings, such as hospitals, to protect healthcare workers from exposure to infectious agents. Face shields are also used in industrial settings to protect workers from hazardous materials, such as chemicals, dust, and flying debris.
Face shields are available from a variety of manufacturers and come in a range of prices. Prices can vary depending on the type of face shield and the manufacturer. Basic face shields can range from $3 to $15, while more advanced face shields with additional features, such as adjustable straps or anti-fog coating, can range from $20 to $50. Popular face shield manufacturers include 3M, Honeywell, and Uvex.
