Müller puts workers' safety first with SegriScreen Shield

Like many of the UK’s food & beverage manufacturing facilities, Müller's site in Minsterley has had to show great resilience to keep the nation’s crucial supplies flowing through the Covid-19 pandemic.

Yet keeping a factory with several hundred staff operating safely and adhering to social distancing measures is by no means straightforward, especially when it’s coupled with a surge in production demand!

With this challenge before them, Müller Minsterley's senior managers saw the SegriScreen Shield screens and weighed up this product alongside a handful of other options, including the consideration of making their own screens in-house.

Why Müller chose SegriScreen Shield

After contacting Klipspringer, the site's management decided to invest in the most future-proof and compliant option that would not compromise their commitment to food safety and product integrity, whilst also being robust enough to last however long social distancing should be required – potentially up to several months.

Following their order being placed for several transparent SegriScreen Shields from Klipspringer, these were manufactured and delivered within just 4 working days, with installation happening almost instantly thanks to minimal set-up being required.
How the SegriScreen Shields benefited Müller

Now that the Shield partition screens have been in use for several weeks, Keith Grady, Maintenance Manager at Müller Minsterley, shared the following comments:

“The SegriScreen Shields that we have purchased have been a great benefit to the site for aiding social distancing in these unusual times. They were easy to construct and effective with the clear screen causing no hinderance visually to the operations team when in use. They are easy to clean, stable and a very limited trip hazard thanks to the design of the feet. Due to the size, they are easy to move around with no manual handling issues, meaning they can be utilised in different areas of the site.”

We also received feedback from Chris Hawkes, one of the Line Leaders at Müller's Minsterley production site:

“The screens we are using are highly effective and very easy to clean after use. They are easily positioned and are 100% fit for their social distancing purpose.”
