With <\/span>reopenings<\/span><\/a> happening at various levels worldwide, the conversation in a lot of businesses has shifted from how to work remotely to how to function safely and compliant with regulations upon getting back to a workplace setting. A lot of this is going to be done through a combination of best practices as well as having the right equipment in place. By taking the time to properly look at all the items available, you can help support your reopening.<\/span><\/p>\n

\"Social<\/b>Getting Back To Work<\/span><\/b><\/h2>\n

Before we talk about specific items, let\u2019s discuss a few concerns that people may have as they go back to work.<\/span><\/p>\n

Minimizing contact<\/b>: Mandating social distancing is one thing, but another source of concern is transmission through shared surfaces, especially in somewhere like an office setting where there may be shared equipment like a copy machine.<\/span><\/p>\n

Screening<\/b>: While it\u2019s not possible to detect COVID-19 in every single person that comes into your building, many employees would feel more comfortable with a form of detection to at least keep anyone who is symptomatic from entering.<\/span><\/p>\n

On-demand cleaning<\/b>: Having your cleaning company step up their regimen is great, but you want to make sure that your employees have resources they can use to do quick cleaning jobs (ie. sanitizing their desks) themselves.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

PPE stockpiles<\/b>: It\u2019s also important that you have enough backup PPE essentials like masks, gloves, and sanitizers so that running out is never going to be a concern, especially while you\u2019re in the middle of operations.<\/span><\/b><\/p>\n

Key Items For Any Workspace<\/span><\/b><\/h2>\n

Now, we can look at some of the extremely useful and smart items you can start stocking up on to support your company\u2019s reopening plans.<\/span><\/p>\n

1. Sanitizer Bracelets<\/span><\/h3>\n

Hand sanitizer is a key item when it comes to keeping your employees protected. One type of equipment that you may not be familiar with when it comes to sanitizer storage, though, are sanitizer bracelets, like the <\/span>Sanitizer Bracelets<\/span><\/a>. These are discreet bracelets filled with hand sanitizer, making them handy for people who want to have quick access after touching a shared surface, but may not have a bag or purse for storage. These bracelets are designed for multiple uses with a refillable cell, and are made of medical-grade silicone. You can also promote that your company is looking for new ways to be safe by adding your company logo with screen printing.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

2. Infrared Thermometers<\/span><\/h3>\n

Screening people coming into your business is going to lower the chance of exposure to someone who\u2019s sick, which is where the <\/span>Wall Mounted Infrared Contactless Thermometer (Pre-Order)<\/span><\/a> comes in. These are well-suited for settings like schools, retail stores, and restaurants, because of their quick reading time and high reading alarm. It\u2019s also easy to use and can be put in a wall mount or adjustable stand while charging.<\/span><\/p>\n

3. UV Wand Sterilizers<\/span><\/h3>\n

For those who haven\u2019t heard of our products like the <\/span>Custom Portable UV Wand Sterilizers<\/span><\/a>, these are tools that you wave over a surface or item before touching it. The UV rays kill off microorganisms like viruses and bacteria before you touch them. This compact wand can easily be stored in your pocket or purse when you are moving around during a workday. Each one also gets roughly 7 to 8 hours of use per charge with the 450mAh battery. Showcase your brand while you\u2019re cleaning and sterilizing items by using screen printing to add to your brand logo.<\/span><\/p>\n

4. Sanitizer Stations<\/span><\/h3>\n

Having on-hand tools to sterilize and clean the space around you is a great start, but sometimes you need a larger amount of sanitizer to service a group. This is where the <\/span>Custom Sanitizer Station – Sanitizer Not Included<\/span><\/a> is most useful. Each of these self-standing stations holds around 40 oz of gel hand sanitizer, but you need to buy it separately. This is also specifically designed to lower transmission risk for people who are getting the sanitizer. With a built-in shield, this helps keep the nearby area safe and clean, with a touchless design that avoids contact with buttons and levers. Customize it further by adding your logo to a full-size printed laminated card using screen printing.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

5. Mighty Mugs<\/span><\/h3>\n

A good way to avoid transmission vectors is to make sure that everyone is drinking out of their own personal vessels, like the <\/span>Solo Plastic 11 oz. No Spill Mighty Mug<\/span><\/a>. The Mighty Mug solo uses Smartgrip technology to avoid spills while you are busy at work. This also fits great under single-serve coffee machines to make sure that you don\u2019t mix your cup up with anybody else. This cut is dishwasher safe and BPA-free. You can also add your logo for added customization using pad printing<\/span><\/p>\n

6. PPE Kits<\/span><\/h3>\n

Equally important is making sure that your team is properly equipped to get back to work. Supplying everyone with a <\/span>Return To Work Kit – Red<\/span><\/a> is a good place to start. This has key PPE basics like hand sanitizer, a mask, and a set of nitrile gloves, along with some added components. These include:<\/span><\/p>\n
