It’s flooring—and then some. Made for More.
Static Protection with Style, Flexibility and Outstanding Electrical Performance
When people walk across a floor they generate static. Static charges accumulate on their body and discharge to the first person or object they touch. These random electrostatic discharge (ESD) events can damage or destroy the circuitry inside electronic components, corrupt data, cause lost or dropped calls and wreak havoc in networked offices.
Who Needs ESD Flooring?
Any business that manufactures, handles or relies on high-performance electronic components is vulnerable to ESD. Facilities include electronics manufacturing and handling (SMT), PSAPs, flight towers, IT rooms, cleanrooms, labs, universities, government offices, military operations and many others. If you’re not sure if you need ESD carpet, contact our partner and static control expert, StaticWorx.
What Does ESD Flooring Do?
A static-control system safeguards expensive electronics and protects valuable data against random ESD events. In most business environments, people generate most charges by walking, making a static-control floor the center of an effective ESD-control system. The most effective static-control floors transport charges to ground and inhibit static generation.
About Interface ShadowFX ESD Carpet
Interface ShadowFX ESD carpet tile inhibits static generation and measures in the optimal static-dissipative range. ShadowFX ESD carpet tiles are available in a variety of beautiful patterns and colors inspired by nature. Many of Interface's i2™ styles offer non directional installation, which reduces installation time and waste while mergeable dye lots elminate matching issues should a tile need replacement later.
