Steuler Claim

ESD protection

Electrostatic Protected Areas (EPA)

Microelectronics and miniaturized electronic components have become an integral part of our lives.

In fact, more and more applications are being developed and the required components are becoming smaller and thus more sensitive. The importance of the "defective component" cost factor continues to increase. In many cases, damage is caused by ESD (Electrostatic Discharge), the spontaneous discharge between differently charged objects.

DIN EN 61340 currently formulates a limit value of 100 volts for the tolerable voltage, but many components fall well below this value. The design of a production environment that is safe for sensitive electronic components must therefore be very different from what we are used to in our daily lives.

Damage caused by ESD is certainly expensive and must be avoided throughout the process chain when using correspondingly sensitive components. ESD must be prevented. A very important point here is the floor. This must effectively prevent the occurrence of damaging voltages. Here, special Steuler floor coating systems offer optimal, long-lasting protection.

Our services for your project

Together with you, we analyze the structural requirements and develop a technically and economically suitable design for the project. We produce the specific materials in the selected color shade (special colors are possible) and our trained staff performs the application professionally. You will receive a complete documentation of the ESD properties of your floor coating with the construction acceptance, also by an independent expert institute on request. In addition, we are also available as a competent contact partner after completion.
