Anti-Static (ESD) Coatings

An ESD, anti static coating flooring system serves as the safe control of electrical static charge that accumulates from a person’s movement across a polymer floor. ESD flooring helps to greatly reduce or eliminate the potential of accidental electrostatic discharge, which can damage sensitive electronic components during manufacture.

Anti-Static Flooring

Anti-static industrial floors prevents the generation of electrostatic discharges or ESD, which is the pulse of static electricity that happens when a charged person or surface comes into contact with another object. The discharge may be visible as a spark or tiny blue bolt of electricity, although the majority of static electricity is not usually apparent.

Industrial Uses

While many organizations may consider anti-static flooring options for a variety of reasons, certain industries require anti-static floors as a most basic safety precaution. Chemical manufacturers and processors, as well as any businesses that may use flammable chemicals or materials in their operations, need to create static-free work environments to avoid igniting chemicals, fumes or even microscopic flammable particles. Electrostatic discharge can render sensitive electronic components useless, so organizations involved in the production or assembly of semiconductors or electronic goods usually need anti-static floors.

Electronics Industry Uses

Most often, the need for an ESD Floor (usually as a critical component of an entire ESD program) is necessary in the electronics industry. This is especially true in circuit board assembly and production. We will work closely with our contractor partners to install the ESD anti static coatings solution that meets your requirements.
