Electrostatic discharge (ESD) flooring is used for laboratories where sensitive electronic equipment is used or manufactured. It is important to choose the right ESD flooring to protect sensitive equipment, prevent costly damage, and ensure the safety of laboratory personnel. Key factors to consider when selecting ESD flooring include electrical resistance levels, durability, and compatibility with existing lab equipment and safety protocols. With a wide variety of ESD flooring materials available—such as conductive, dissipative, and antistatic flooring, each of which manages static electricity differently—how can you be sure you are making the right choice for your lab? What questions do you need to ask your client or your project team when you're building or renovating a lab facility?

This webinar will provide insights into the installation, testing, and maintenance of ESD flooring systems. Learn the importance of proper installation to achieve the desired level of static control, the necessity of regular testing to ensure the flooring continues to perform effectively over time, and maintenance strategies to help extend ESD flooring’s lifespan and effectiveness.
