Tempered Glass: The Cost-Effective Option
While acrylic or plexiglass guards are much more prevalent, tempered glass is a far more durable option—and is often very similar in price to other alternatives. Tempered glass is shatter resistant, scratch resistant, and perfect for high-traffic environments such as retail.

We can't speak highly enough of Dillmeier’s customer service

Sneeze Guard FAQs
Learn more about some of the most frequently-asked questions we receive when it comes to sneeze guard applications.
Also known as glass shields, sneeze guards were originally invented to prevent contamination at buffets and self-service food counters, but are now being deployed to safeguard person-to-person interactions for a variety of applications. Whether in food service, retail, hospitality or office settings, we can fabricate a sneeze guard for added protection.
Dillmeier Glass Company’s sneeze guards are manufactured using tempered or laminated glass--these materials are less likely to suffer from scratches, discoloration and damage than acrylic or plexiglass. Tempered glass is recommended because of its durability, shatter-proof properties, and scratch-free, transparent surface. For added safety, laminated glass is produced with two pieces of regular or tempered glass sandwiched between clear plastic resin. Should breakage occur, all layers are held together, instead of shattering into pieces or pebbles.
According to Dillmeier Glass Company partner, Stainless Innovations, true protection (see accompanying illustration) is dependent on display size, customer height, and specified use, such as retail, foodservice, or office settings. Our team can assist you with any type of solution to meet your design needs and specifications.
Yes, sneeze guards can facilitate many customizations for added branding and personalization. These include logos, shapes, and designs, sandblasting, silk screening, reeded glass, and back-painting and color-matching.
Unlike plexiglass or acrylic, tempered glass sneeze guards can resist general wear and tear with proper maintenance and cleaning. Using a gentle cleaning solvent and soft cloth, most surfaces can be wiped clean without any residue, ghosting, or scratches.
