Furniture Purpose-Made for Healthcare
Not everything in healthcare needs to be complicated. At Shield, our focus is on creating quality designs with high standards and unique innovations that allow for an ease of use that can be difficult to find with other products. With a sleek look, you can make any healthcare environment feel more inviting while knowing that the material won’t harbor bacteria and will keep those who enter safe.
But how do we maintain that our products look amazing while also being safe? It’s the material. Shield uses acrylic solid surface, a mix of aluminum trihydrate (ATH) and polymethyl methacrylate (PMMA) to create a product that is non-porous, anti-microbial and incredibly durable.
What is our product?
When searching for furniture, we know a lot of your options probably look the same. We’re not trying to reinvent the wheel, just make it better. All of our products offer a sleek design that has been created to make your workday easier and the patient experience more enjoyable.
Within this series we will be breaking down all of Shield Headwall’s products and showcasing the design features as well as how our aesthetics prove that hospital furniture doesn’t have to be cold or sterile.
“We could have just bolted a solid surface top onto a laminate piece of office furniture and called it a day. But we all know that won't deliver the performance healthcare requires and doesn't honor the clinical environments and professionals we work to serve.”
- Stephen Hopkins, AIA, NCARB, LEED AP, MBA, Founder and Chief Design Officer at SHIELD
