Gharieni launches illuminated protective screen for facial treatments

We launched the Gharieni PlexiShield in reaction to the needs of the market in order to find the best solution for our spa tables following COVID-19
– Sammy Gharieni

Gharieni has unveiled an illuminated protective screen to separate clients and therapists during facial treatments.

Named the Gharieni PlexiShield, the thermoformed screen has been developed to ensure a safe environment for clients and therapists during facials which is easy to clean and provides an added light source for therapists.

Gharieni has designed the shield with built-in LED lights, which are seamlessly integrated into the plexiglass screen, to make the shield easy to clean and disinfect which will be crucial as spas reopen with rigours hygiene procedures.

The product can be easily attached to the metal frame under the headrest of all Gharieni spa tables series MLW and MO1, with the direct connection to the frame ensuring maximum leg space for therapists while they conduct treatments on clients’ heads and face.

In addition, the direct connection between the frame and spa table provides optimum stability and makes any additional height adjustment unnecessary, as the shield automatically adjusts to the height of the spa table.

“We launched the Gharieni PlexiShield in reaction to the needs of the market in order to find the best solution for our spa tables following COVID-19,” said Sammy Gharieni.

“There are two main differences between our PlexiShield and others on the market.. Firstly, we found a way to attach the PlexiShield directly to the frame, which means no disturbing stands as well as optimal leg space for the therapist.

“Secondly, the shield is innovative because it is able to be fully illuminated and act as an effective light source.”

The PlexiShield set includes the Plexiglass shield, two rails and fixtures for easy assembling.

If not in use, the shield can be detached and stowed easily in a compact fashion and doesn’t waste space in treatment rooms.
