BetterShield™ 3D Contoured Shields
Face Shields
A Better Way to Protect Healthcare Teams
Unlike traditional flat shields, BetterShield offers full-face coverage—including under the chin and along the sides—where exposure risks are often overlooked.
With distortion-free optics and a secure, comfortable fit, BetterShield protects your team without compromising clarity or compatibility with eyewear and face mask.
Why Choose BetterShield?

Protects from all angles—including the often-missed sides and bottom of the face.
Proven Protection in Real-World Settings
Ideal for sterile processing, operating rooms, and high-risk procedural areas where droplets can travel up to 5 feet.
Clinically Tested
Outperforms standard flat shields in splash protection trials—minimizing the risk of facial exposure.
Fog-Free, Distortion-Free Optics
Maintains visibility during critical tasks—even with glasses, goggles, or N95 masks.
Safe & Comfortable Materials
Includes adjustable options and foam headrest models for extended use.
Made Without BPA or Latex
To support a cleaner, safer choice for users and the environment.
Face Shields
Aligned with Leading Research
A 2022 AJIC study* showed that currently recommended PPE did not prevent splash exposure in sterile processing areas—even when used correctly. Droplets reached up to 5 feet, soaking PPE and exposing face, neck, and chest areas.
BetterShield was designed in direct response to these risks, closing the coverage gap left by traditional flat shields.

Face Shields
Preferred by Healthcare Workers
Multi-site, multi-award hospital testing* revealed that healthcare workers preferred BetterShield over the nearest competitor by more than 300%.
