Plexiglass, which is often used in payment compartments, has become indispensable after Covid-19, especially for shopping malls with crowded masses.

Sales of Plexiglas have surged around the world since the pandemic hit, as offices, schools, restaurants and retail stores seek protection from droplets that health officials suspect spread the coronavirus.

Wearing masks is likely to continue, as is the social distancing and other safety measures that consumers are familiar with. But now experts say retailers need to strike a “balance” between caution and going back to the old ways, because people are more comfortable with activities that place them back in public spaces.

Creating an Enjoyable Environment in Shopping Malls

Growing before COVID-19 and accelerating during the pandemic, online shopping is gaining more and more strength every day. Many experts say that the increase in demand for e-Commerce started as a security measure and has become a convenience issue.

The key now is to transform stores and the shopping experience into one that customers can enjoy with ease and feel safe when wandering the aisles, taking orders or trying to return an item. At this point, the use of plexiglass can create significant advantages. The use of plexi, which will provide advantages especially in food and beverage environments, can also be used for different purposes in clothing stores.

Plexi in Cafes and Restaurants

It is undoubtedly common in shopping centers to create a system that focuses on all visitors visiting as many stores as possible. For this reason, all restaurants and cafes in shopping centers have as many tables as possible.

The fact that many tables are located close to each other makes restaurants and cafes in shopping malls much more risky for the spread of the virus. The use of plexi around tables or in the intervals between long countertops positioned bar-style can avoid this problem.
