Static Electricity Is a Silent Killer
In electronics manufacturing, data centers, server rooms, and medical device facilities, a single static discharge event can destroy sensitive components worth thousands of dollars. Electrostatic discharge (ESD) flooring eliminates this risk by providing a controlled path to ground for static charges.
How ESD Flooring Works
ESD floor coatings contain conductive or dissipative materials that allow static charges to flow through the floor to a grounding system. The floor becomes part of your facility’s ESD protection program, working alongside wrist straps, heel grounders, and ionizers to maintain a static-safe environment.
Conductive vs. Dissipative: Which Do You Need?
The choice depends on your application. Conductive flooring (resistance below 1 million ohms) provides rapid charge dissipation for explosive environments and high-sensitivity electronics. Static dissipative flooring (1 million to 1 billion ohms) provides controlled discharge suitable for most electronics manufacturing and server room applications.
Testing and Compliance
ESD flooring must meet specific standards including ANSI/ESD S20.20, ASTM F150, and IEC 61340. Maverick Performance Solutions installs ESD systems that are tested and certified to meet your facility’s specific compliance requirements. We provide documentation and test results for every installation.
The Maverick ESD Advantage
We do not just install a floor. We design an ESD flooring system matched to your specific static sensitivity requirements, equipment layout, and operational needs. From conductive epoxy coatings to dissipative urethane systems, we deliver the right solution for your environment.
