SG Blocks Launches Container-Based Health and Safety Modules

Brooklyn-based SG Blocks, which specializes in container-based structures, has launched a series of container-based health and safety modules to help support the response to the novel coronavirus (COVID-19) pandemic.

The applications for the container-based product line include, but are not limited to, the following:

• COVID-19 externalized patient care rooms
• Staff testing and re-testing centers
• Hospital/caregiver staff housing
• Staff offices for those requiring quarantine or monitoring
• First responder units
• Airport & venue screening and quarantine

“We believe these products can offer states, cities and employer’s options for those in their care or custody,” said Paul Galvin, Chairman and CEO of SG Blocks. “They are designed to help students, patients, health professionals and others exposed to COVID-19 isolate in a safe place. Those that work in the service economy, especially emergency and medical personnel, should have an option other than going home to risk infecting loved ones.”
