The barrier is designed to be easily positioned onto [existing desks in the classroom environment](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/eduba) and will go to work providing students with a way to maintain distance from one another. The [see-through design of the barrier](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ma-camilla-isabel-reyes) allows children to still see their fellow students and the teacher to help them feel more connected. The Bluemap Design x ClearSpace Safety Barriers are paired with a nameplate in the front for helping to dedicate specific desks to students to use. ## Trend Insights (Trend Hunter) - Score: 6.0/10 - Popularity: 94% | Activity: 76% | Freshness: 9% - Audience gender: 50% men, 50% women - Primary generations: Gen Z, Gen Alpha - Top markets: North America ## Categories [Trend Hunter](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends) > [Lifestyle](https://www.trendhunter.com/lifestyle) > [Health](https://www.trendhunter.com/health) ## Key Themes ### What Makes This Trend Stand Out - **Classroom Safety Barriers:** The development of clear safety barriers for classrooms presents an opportunity for companies to innovate and adapt during the COVID-19 pandemic. - **Flexible Desk Designs:** Creating flexible desks that can easily accommodate safety barriers presents an opportunity for furniture designers to meet changing classroom needs. - **Touchless Technology for Classroom Materials:** As concerns over germ transmission continue, the use of touchless technology to pass out classroom materials presents an opportunity for tech companies to innovate. ### Sectors Adopting This - **Education:** The education industry can benefit from safety barriers as they help prevent the spread of COVID-19 in classroom settings. - **Furniture:** Furniture designers can create innovative and flexible desk designs to accommodate safety barriers in classrooms. - **Technology:** Tech companies can innovate with touchless technology for classroom materials to help prevent the transmission of germs in educational settings. ## Related on Trend Hunter - [At-Home Classroom Gadgets](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/berrylikejumbo.md) - [Air-Cleaning Office Partitions](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/partition-air-purifier.md) - [Work-Enhancing Partitioning Systems](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/partitioning-system.md) - [Colorful School Desk Designs](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/clever-school-desk1.md) - [Mobile Professional Workstation Systems](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/mobile-desk-divider.md) - [Design-Conscious Office Dividers](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/calm-collection.md) - [Personalized Learning Desks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/d2l.md) - [Sound-Absorbing Cozy Desks](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/buddyhub.md) - [Contemporary Privacy Screen Collections](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/calm-system.md)
