During the Covid-19 pandemic in 2020, the UK manufacturing collaboration MAN Group designed and produced an easy to assemble face visor to meet the increased demands for low cost, high quality Personal Protection Equipment.
20,000 units were donated to front-line heroes in the NHS and charities in the UK. Brandauer then took up the mantle of manufacturing for the commercial market and a further 30,000 units were manufactured for general distribution, helping to increase the safety of the public and reduce the spread of Covid-19.

Simple assembly instructions provided to users
Wash your hands prior to assembly. The visor should be kept in its original packaging prior to use and care should be taken to avoid any unnecessary contamination.
1. REMOVE FILM
Using a clean dust free surface, carefully remove the protective film from both sides of the screen. Be careful not to rush.
2. PUSH CLIP
Align the holes of the visor and push the forehead front two ‘pips’ in first, followed by the two side pips to fasten.
3. ADJUST FIT
Push outside strap through guide tabs on the inside strap. Place on your head and tighten strap until comfortable.
Thanks for the great feedback!
“The visors will certainly be put to good use! They are strong and decent which is great compared to some that we have had!”
“I can personally recommend these visors. I’ve bought enough to see me through for at least a year. or maybe longer, because they are washable!”
“Everyone found them more comfortable than others”
“Just wanted you to know that out of all the visors I have tried, this one is the very best. It’s so easy to put together, but more importantly, for me anyway, the visor wraps around the face far more than any others I have tried and therefore offers far more protection. I will be ordering more of these and will use this type from now on.”
“Thank you for the donation of 150 visors for Dougie Mac, Donna Louise and Approach, enabling us to continue to support our patients and service users during this time.”
