Maintenance & Care

Regular maintenance ensures your ESD floor maintains its conductivity performance and appearance over its full service life.

1
Daily Cleaning

Sweep or vacuum to remove dust and debris. Use a damp mop with a neutral pH cleaner.

2
Weekly Mopping

Use an ESD-safe cleaning solution diluted in water. Avoid silicone-based or wax products.

3
Periodic Testing

Conduct resistance testing every 6–12 months using a calibrated ESD meter to verify compliance.

4
Damage Repair

Replace damaged tiles promptly. Contact SC Flooring for replacement tiles and guidance.

Installation Guide

Proper installation is critical for achieving the required ESD performance. Follow these steps for a compliant installation.

1
Subfloor Preparation

Ensure the subfloor is clean, dry, flat (±3mm/3m), and free of contamination. Prime if necessary.

2
Copper Grid Layout

Install copper foil tape in a grid pattern (3.3m × 3.3m for tiles) connected to an earth ground point.

3
Adhesive Application

Apply conductive adhesive (120–180g/m²) evenly using a notched trowel. Allow flash-off time.

4
Tile Laying

Lay tiles from centre outward in a pyramid pattern. Press firmly and roll with a 45kg roller.

5
Welding & Testing

Heat-weld seams using matching welding rod. After 24 hours curing, conduct resistance testing.

Understanding ESD

What is ESD Flooring?

ESD (Electrostatic Discharge) flooring is specially designed to safely dissipate static electricity from personnel and equipment to ground. It is essential in environments where electronic components, flammable substances, or sensitive data equipment is present.

SC Flooring's conductive ESD tiles meet the international standard resistance range of 10⁴ to 10⁶ Ω, providing reliable static control without causing electrical shock hazards.
