Utilizing Glass Distraction Markers in Office Spaces

The environment in which we work can drastically impact our level of productivity. Glass conference rooms and office spaces allow for an open, collaborative, and bright workplace. However, with glass walls come some issues we don’t often consider. 

When a glass wall is crystal clear, it becomes a collision hazard. While seeing someone unknowingly walk into a wall can be humorous on TV shows and in movies, in reality, it can create a workplace safety issue. Additionally, there are times in the office when privacy is required. How can commercial spaces achieve the desired level of privacy without completely shutting off a space with curtains or blinds? 

That’s where distraction markers come in. Distraction markers add safety to your workplace, create privacy without ruining aesthetics, and can even incorporate your brand or a unique element of design into your space. 

What Are Distraction Markers?

Distraction markers are strips of 3M Decorative Film, such as Dusted Crystal or FASARA, applied at eye level to glass surfaces. Examples of distraction markers in an office setting include frosted glass stripes on conference room walls, custom logo designs on office doors, and geometric patterns on room dividers.

Why You Should Invest in Distraction Markers

  1. Improve Safety in the Workplace: Installing distraction markers on glass walls and partitions is an investment in the safety of your employees. Reduce the likelihood of collisions by indicating the clear barrier’s presence with the 3M Decorative Glass Finish of your choice. 
  2. Sleekly Create Privacy: While open floor plans and sleek, modern offices are highly sought after, they can result in little to no privacy. Blinds and shades are certainly an option to create privacy, but they can take away from a space’s aesthetics. Distraction markers give you the ability to create subtle privacy in a way that best suits your workplace. 
  3. Elevate Aesthetics & Boost Brand Awareness: Traditional office settings often lack visual appeal. Distraction markers provide a cost-effective solution for adding unique design elements or logos, enhancing your office’s interior. They are quick to install, non-intrusive, and ensure minimal disruption to business operations.
