In response to increased demand for Matthews Studio Equipment’s practically-sized 40-inch by 40-inch Flags and Floppies, the company has added the new Matthshield Floppy to the lineup. The quick set-up clear Floppy facilitates protection for crew, actors and gear. Like the rest of the 40-inch by 40-inch line, it is portable enough to travel in a hatchback car and compact enough to work in tight locations.

In response to increased demand for Matthews Studio Equipment’s practically-sized 40-inch by 40-inch Flags and Floppies, the company has added the new Matthshield Floppy to the lineup. Matthshield Floppy can fold out to 40-inch by 80-inch yet weighs just five pounds so it makes an easily maneuverable partition. It features clear marine vinyl which functions as a UV protectant and comes with a 3/8-inch pin for easy mounting to standard stands and grip gear. This no-sweat solution can effectively screen cameras, crew and talent from splattering special effects or act as a safety barrier to help protect against COVID-19 transmission.

The rugged 40-inch by 40-inch frames are built with 3/8-inch stainless steel tubing that’s securely welded for long life. Premium sturdy-gauge, optically clear marine vinyl has been specially selected to withstand the elements from hot sunlight to extreme cold without yellowing or becoming brittle over time.

The rest of 40-inch by 40-inch family includes flags, top or bottom hinge Floppies (expand to 40-inch by 80-inch top hinge black/white Matthbounce Floppies, Artificial Silk and 40-inch by 40-inch Flag Bag.
