Protect a classic to curve styled computer keyboard against dust, grime, dirt, or similar such contaminants with a see-through, easy-to-install, and non-obstructive keyboard protector.

A high-grade silicone, hard-wearing polyurethane or thermoplastic urethane crafted protective sheet is perfect to stop liquid spills, cookie crumbs, dust particles, perspiration, staining, oil grease, or bacteria’s settling on a standard keyboard.

A typical mask, at a mere 0.1 – 0.25mm in thickness, is designed to coat the top-surface of a notebook, laptop or desktop PC keyboard, including the wrist area, keys, and touch-pad, while at the same time maintaining a quality typing experience.

A heavy-duty protective cover, with detailed molding, often comes constructed to fit a particular PC or model brand, such as those manufacture by HP, Dell Toshiba, Fujitsu, and Apple. A solid, fitting sheet offers complete protection, while still being able to retain sensitivity and key response.

Safe to disinfect and clean, a notebook or desktop keyboard sheet is simple to maintain in a clean and germ-free state – cleaning is often a case of using a disinfecting or germicidal wipe with a cover in situ or to lift off and clean with soap and warm water. Going with either option is effective at stopping the build-up of staining or the spread of bacteria in a shared area.

A clear, transparent keyboard mask is well-made to resist cracks, abrasions, and splitting after constant use, while a matte finish is ideal to limit glare. A translucent cover, with the ability to show all keys clearly, is also offered in pinks to light blues for a more personal or individual style. An unobtrusive shield, with prolonged use in mind, is constructed to remain in place at all times, even when a lid is shut on a notebook.

A quality keyboard cover, with a slim silicone construction also offers the additional benefit of dampening the noise of countless keystrokes, and that is often appreciated in educational to open plan office environments.

Overall, a thin, soft, and flexible sheet of polyurethane or silicone is perfect to protect a keyboard from general wear to avoiding dirt, spills and grime, and suited to a complete array of situations from a school, cafe, office or similar set-up in a public environment.
