Safety Goggles/Face Shield Total Quality Assurance

Health authorities suggested that eye and face protection should be used when there is a risk of contamination to the eyes from splashing secretions, blood, bodily fluids or excretions.

Manufacturers and retailers are shifting their production lines and joining the effort to produce life-saving products around the world. 

For manufacturers not familiar with the complex production requirements for safety goggles and face shields, it becomes more demanding in their manufacturing process to produce quality and compliant products.

Safety googles serve as a protective gear intended to tightly fit the face by means of an adjustable headstrap, that surround the eyes in order to shield the eyes from certain hazards. Face shields are devices used to protect the user’s eyes and face from potentially infectious materials.
