Columbus, Ohio-based Plaskolite has seen business rise six-fold since mid-March for its acrylic sheet, makings of the clear plastic barriers that have been installed everywhere from courtrooms to Walmarts and coffee shops. Buses, airplanes and maybe movie theaters are among what's next.

Founded in 1950, Plaskolite got its start producing hula hoops and fly swatters but has since grown to be a leader in the roughly $4 billion market for acrylic sheet, also known as plexiglass. Last year the company, which is majority owned by’s Pritzker Private Capital, did an estimated $650 million in sales.

"Every day I come in and hear about a new application," he says. Plaskolite is now manufacturing clear barriers installed between booths and tables at restaurants, shatterproof partitions to separate bus drivers from boarding passengers and"barrier stations" for employers to safely take workers' temperatures at the start of shifts.
