As we step into a post-pandemic world, businesses and organizations are keenly focused on innovative ways to enhance their operational safety and aesthetic appeal. One solution that many have turned to is using glass partitions or barriers in public spaces. These partitions not only foster a sense of openness and transparency but also contribute significantly to creating safer environments.
Gone are the days of impersonal plastic sheeting. Glass partitions provide a sleek and effective physical barrier, allowing businesses to uphold health guidelines without sacrificing customer service or aesthetics. Natural light flows freely, maintaining a sense of openness and connection. Whether in a retail setting, office environment, or healthcare facility, glass partitions create a safe and inviting atmosphere for everyone.
In this blog post, we will explore the benefits of glass partitions for health, safety, and style as well as some tips on how to use them effectively in your business or organization.

While the past few years have highlighted the need for physical barriers in public spaces, the future of glass partitions extends far beyond pandemic concerns. They offer a permanent, stylish, and practical solution for enhancing safety and fostering a sense of well-being in any setting.
Benefits include:
Glass partitions are an effective way for businesses and facilities to uphold health regulations while still allowing customers or guests to access services. By providing a physical barrier between people, glass partitions help prevent the spread of disease without limiting customer service. They come in many shapes and sizes, making them practical for any setting.
Glass partitions are an investment in the future of your business. They create a safe and welcoming environment for both employees and customers while adding a touch of sophistication and style.
While alternatives like plastic or acrylic barriers have been used, they often fall short in terms of longevity and aesthetic value. Glass, on the other hand, maintains its clarity and integrity even with regular cleaning and use, making it a superior choice for sustainable design.
Unlike glass, plastic, and acrylic barriers:
At New Angle Beveling, we not only manufacture glass to create custom protective barriers but also to enhance public safety.
We suggest either tempered or laminated glass, or a combination of the two – tempered laminated glass – for partitions.
Through our tempering process, in which glass is heated to extreme temperatures and cooled quickly, panes of glass are made 4-5x stronger than annealed glass. Should it break, tempered glass shatters into pebble-like pieces rather than jagged shards.
Tempered glass is ideal for spaces where glass strength and public safety are considerations.
Our laminated glass boasts a thin protective layer of plastic that is bonded between 2 panes of glass. If broken, laminated glass does not fall apart. Instead, its pieces — though cracked — remain in place, protecting those on both sides of the glass should a breakage occur.
New Angle Beveling can fabricate glass to meet the specific needs of your installation project.
We can cut glass precisely to fit unique spaces or match the contour of permanent fixtures and semi-permanent objects, such as:
We can shape tempered and laminated glass into nearly any traditional geometric pattern to meet the dimensions of your installation project. Shapes include:
In addition, we can also create custom cutouts within panes of glass, such as speak holes or pass-throughs, to allow as little interference as possible while conducting business as usual.
