This face shield has undergone review in a clinical setting and is recommended when fabricated as instructed. This is a Rapid Application Group design optimized for selective laser sintering (SLS). This will allow those with Selective Laser Sintering or MJP assets to have a clinical tested design for production. This was designed with a local consortium that Rapid Application Group lead with local healthcare professionals. Features:• Optimized design for selective laser sintering (SLS) or MJP using Nylon 12• Forehead coverage to ensure maximum protection• Multi use locking mechanism on the sides to secure the shield• Locking system allows for a wide variety of attaching straps.
