Safe & Reliable Anti-Static (ESD) Epoxy Flooring

Anti-Static (ESD) Epoxy Flooring, or Electrostatic Discharge flooring, incorporates conductive additives (like carbon fibers or copper grounding) into epoxy resin to create a controlled path for static electricity to ground safely. This prevents damaging discharges that can harm electronics or ignite flammables. At Mayon Flooring, our ESD epoxy solutions meet ANSI/ESD S20.20 standards, providing reliable static control alongside chemical resistance and hygiene for critical operations.

Process Overview

Our certified installers follow rigorous protocols for effective ESD performance:

Substrate PreparationThorough grinding or shot-blasting to achieve a clean, profiled concrete surface.
Grounding InstallationLay copper grounding tapes or grids connected to multiple earth points.
Primer ApplicationApply conductive primer to enhance adhesion and initial conductivity.
Conductive Epoxy BuildMix and apply body coat with carbon/conductive additives (self-leveling or troweled).
TopcoatSeal with ESD-rated epoxy for protection and uniform resistance.
Testing & CertificationMeasure resistance point-to-point and point-to-ground; certify compliance.

Precise installation ensures lifelong static control with minimal downtime.

Data centers and server rooms
Pharmaceutical and chemical plants
Explosives handling and munitions storage
Aerospace and automotive electronics
Laboratories and testing facilities

Guidance

Require at least 3-5 grounding points per 1,000 sq ft for reliable dissipation. Test substrate moisture (<4%) and ensure stable temperature during installation. Combine with ESD footwear/wrist straps for full protection. We recommend pre-installation audits to determine resistance range (dissipative 10^6-10^9 or conductive <10^6 ohms) and grounding layout based on your equipment sensitivity and facility size.

FAQs

What resistance level do ESD floors provide?

Typically 10^4–10^9 ohms, customizable for dissipative or conductive needs.

How is grounding achieved?

Via copper strips/grids embedded and connected to building earth.

Does ESD epoxy wear out?

No – conductivity is integral and permanent when properly installed.

Can it be applied over existing floors?

Yes, with preparation and compatibility testing.
