Bed head protectors are essentially used in hospital, healthcare centres, day centres and care homes where damage can be caused to the structure of the wall or indeed to medical facilities such as gas line that may come in contact with wheeled beds and trolleys.
Bed head protectors provide protection to vulnerable wall surfaces and help to prevent damage to essential hospital services.
Manufactured in various lengths to suit customer requirements they can be supplied singularly or in pairs. All protectors may be fixed vertically or horizontally, and either flat back to the wall or on spacer blocks. Stop ends are injection moulded to suit the chosen protector.
Please note where motorized reclining beds are in use it is not advised to install a horizontal bed head protector.
Consult manufacturer for fixing instructions.

VOC Emissions
Yeoman Shield PVC-U Falmouth Wall & Door Protection panels have been tested for VOC to ISO 16000-10:2006 Indoor air - Part 10.
The test showed the following results:
The interpretation of these results by BRE are if all the walls (less door and window) of the 30 m³ reference room described in BS EN 16515‑2017 (with a ventilation rate of 0.5 air changes per hour) were clad with the Yeoman Shield PVC-U Falmouth Wall & Door Protection Panels, the increase in TVOC in the room would
be <20 µg/m³ for TVOC and <10 µg/m³ for formaldehyde and these are deemed to be low.
BREEAM Hea 02 has limits of 300 µg/m³ for TVOC and 100 µg/m³ for formaldehyde, so the theoretical increases in TVOC and formaldehyde from using our PVC-U sheet are deemed as low.
