New ZShield Wrap Designed to Meet CDC Guidance for Face Shields

July 15, 2020 -- ZVerse is constantly innovating its face shield products to meet the latest customer and industry demands in this fast-changing COVID-19 crisis. Its newest product, ZShield Wrap, provides extended coverage around the face and attaches from a comfortable neck mount that allows the shield to flex up for active engagement and down for idle circumstances. 

For those who opt to wear face shields, the Center for Disease Control and Prevention (CDC) recommends using one that drops below the chin and wraps around the face. The Wrap’s smart, ultra-lightweight design follows these guidelines. 

ZShield Wrap comes in addition to ZVerse’s other face shield products, ZShield Flex, ZShield Youth and ZShield Health (details below). All ZShields are easy to wear, reusable and easy to clean, and they provide a barrier that prevents the direct transfer of respiratory droplets from the user's mouth or nose onto persons, food or other objects. ZShields allow for comfortable breathing and conversation, as well as a full view of the wearer’s face. 

• ZShield Flex: ZShield Flex is ZVerse’s original neck-mounted face shield designed for everyday life. The ZShield Flex fit enables people to wear the shield for prolonged periods of time without feeling hot or confined. 
• ZShield Youth: ZShield Youth is designed to be a smaller version of the ZShield Wrap product, ideal for children ages 5 to 11. The ZShield Youth collar is designed with breakaway technology, deterring the risk of choking.
• ZShield Health: ZShield Health follows a traditional face shield design and provides an essential piece of personal protective equipment (PPE) for frontline workers. These shields are worn in combination with an N95 Respirator for best protection.

ZShields are designed and manufactured in the USA.  ZVerse deeply believes in the strength of its domestic supply chain and has best-in-class manufacturing partners all over the country working to quickly produce PPE. ZVerse is located in Columbia, South Carolina and has tripled its workforce to keep up with the ongoing demand of the COVID-19 crisis. 

ZShields are registered with the FDA as a medical device and certified with the American National Standard for Occupational and Educational Personal and Protection Devices (ANSI).
