Design Thinking
When the pandemic hit, a sudden need for protective gear occurred. In collaboration with the DropBucket team, I managed to turn around our production from sustainable bins to offering protective screens in only four days. By utilizing rapid prototyping and 3D renderings, it was possible to fast-forward the product development and launch the product online even before we had the stock ready. During the pandemic, we helped a range of universities, municipalities, schools, restaurants and companies in Denmark, Germany and the Faroe Islands.
Challenge
When the pandemic hit, a sudden need for protective gear occurred, especially in places where many people gathered needed protective screens to keep everyone safe. At the same time, we experienced a time where many people were in isolation, which made it essential to make the screens transparent to see each other when working.
Solution
The screens were made to meet the need for people to meet at workspaces, restaurants, and canteens safely. The screens were made in Denmark of recycled plastic, are easy to set up at any table, foldable for easy transportation and storage, and recycled at the end of life. They are easy to wash and can also be used with whiteboard markers that quickly come off.
