Electro Static Dissipative Coatings (ESD Coatings) also know as Anti Static Coatings - Scroll down for Conductive or Sparkproof Coatings
More than 50% of all breakdowns of electronic devices can be traced to ELECTROSTATIC DISCHARGE. In clean rooms, electronic chip manufacturing, electronic manufacturing, ESD control is vital to quality control.
One method of controlling ESD is preventing Electrostatic charge build-up by safely dissipating the charge through the judicious use of Conductive Coatings
For use in any areas where the build-up of static electricity is a hazard.
A Static Dissipative Floor has a resistance of 1,000,000 – 1,000,000,000 ohms
per 3 ft. It adds no static electricity to the environment and drains off
a 5,000 - volt charge to zero in less than 0.2 seconds.

Sparkproof Flooring also known as Static Conductive Flooring or Conductive Flooring
Manufacturing areas, solvent storage areas and dry rooms that handle or create explosive liquid, dust or vapor must develop and adhere to strict safety programs to avoid ignition of explosion hazards.. An Ignition-Control Conductive floor plays a vital role in any comprehensive ignition-control safety program.
In the same type of family of coatings as ESD coatings, a sparkproof coating is a much more conductive coating. A Conductive Floor has a resistance of 25,000 x 1,000,000 ohms per 3 ft. It can drain static charge dissipating a 5,000 - volt
charge to zero in 0.05 seconds.
A conductive floor has a much lower electrical resistance than a static
dissipative floor. It will carry the static charges to a ground quickly
and efficiently as to prevent accidental discharge and ignition. If the
floor is too conductive, an operator on the floor can become too
effectively grounded and will suffer electrical shock. For this reason
the NFPA requires all flooring surfaces to have a minimum resistance
of 25,000 ohms. Frequent contact between tools and equipment,
or dropping the tools on the floor, will cause spark and ignition.
For those circumstances, a sparkproof conductive flooring system
is highly recommended. The rapid rate of charge dissipation of
conductive flooring can create a magnetic field which can present
a problem for manufacturers of electronic components.
