▲ “Splash-proof acrylic partitions" manufactured and sold by Technoplast in Thailand

Technoplast (Thailand) (hereinafter referred to as Technoplast) has been producing and selling infection prevention products since the first wave of COVID-19 in Japan. In Thailand, the company continues this effort by creating its own COVID-19 prevention products using plastic and resin processing technology. One such product is the "Splash-Proof Acrylic Partition," which is highlighted here.

We interviewed Mr. Hiroyuki Konuma from "Akha Mae Chan Tai Coffee Shop," who is using this product, to understand the background and reasons behind its adoption.

▲ Located on the first basement floor of Empire Tower (directly connected to BTS Chong Nonsi Station), the official name of this coffee shop is “Akha Mae Chan Tai Coffee Shop & Multipurpose Space.”

The Splash-Proof Acrylic Partition from Technoplast Found Through an Internet Search

Mr. Konuma： When we were preparing to open in January 2021, COVID-19 started spreading again in Thailand, and the Thai government issued strict infection control guidelines. We searched for acrylic sneeze guards for the customer seating at stores in Chatuchak and online, but in Thailand, only cheap-looking vinyl products were available. Importing from Singapore, Malaysia, or China was costly. Through an Internet search, we came across Technoplast's "Splash-Proof Acrylic Partition". I immediately made an inquiry using the web form.

Mr. Konuma： Technoplast's splash-proof acrylic boards are reasonably priced and look great. They are fantastic. Currently, we use five acrylic boards in our shop. Even after the COVID-19 pandemic ends, we can continue to using them for a long time by attaching flyers or menus, so there’s no need to store them away.

One of the projects initiated by the General Incorporated Association for the Promotion of Self-reliance in Asia (GIAPSA) as part of its support activities for hill tribes mainly in northern Thailand has culminated in the establishment of this coffee shop. Due to poverty, the villagers of Mae Chan Tai, who had been cultivating poppy flowers until the early 2000s, took on the challenge of producing and selling coffee beans.
