ESD packaging
Friction between objects and every move has the potential to create a small electric charge. Electrostatic discharges frequently occur around us to rebalance these small loads of electrons.
When charge disturbances take place faster than charge redistribution, the static charge appears. Electric discharges occur where charges of different electrostatic potentials meet. The flow of electrons is sudden, releasing energy that can destroy electrostatic-sensitive devices (ESDS).
ESD plastic trolleys
ESD trolleys and dollies are produced to transport boxes and containers between different work points in production or assembly lines and warehouse areas, thus improving the internal workflow.
They are designed to ease the work of operators and protect the static-sensitive products on transport. They can be used alone or in a convoy pulled by an electric tow tug tractor.
ESD transport dollies are compatible with all Euro standard crate types, from stackable or stack-nest to picking, foldable, or VDA standard.
They are produced from high-quality materials, robust and impact-resistant, stable on the move and able to carry considerable loads.
The smooth-running and high-quality wheels are made from conductive materials and can be fixed, swivelled, or combined; optionally, they can have parking brakes and thread guards.
When they are not used, they can be safely stacked and stored to save space and keep a neat and organized work environment.

ESD storage boxes
The ESD shelf picking bins with conductive or dissipative properties are necessary to safely store electronic products or small parts and components.
This ergonomic solution is common in warehouses, production, offices, assembly lines, stores, laboratories, and any modern working space where ESD protection of the products is required.
They are lightweight but very robust and adaptable for considerable loads, easily recognizable by their design and frontal access.
ESD plastic bins for shelves are suited for different storage spaces, adaptable to workstations, compatible with wall panels, mounted as shelving storage containers on Kanban systems, or simply stacked side by side or one on top of the other like Legos. Internal separators can help better organize the interior and save space by packing more products in the same ESD storage box.
This way, besides the protection offered to the stored items, the ESD plastic modular bins save the space within the areas where they are used, improve the workflow, maintain neat workbenches, keep floors, aisles, and work areas organized and produce a hygienic and clean work environment.

ESD plastic pallets with closed deck
ESD closed-deck plastic pallets are produced from high-quality, scratch-resistant plastic with conductive or dissipative properties.
Electronic-sensitive products are safely stored in large warehouses and transported worldwide.
They are used with ESD packaging, e.g., Euro containers/ boxes/ bins/ crates/ totes/ VDA KLT, and injected plastic or thermoformed ESD lids.
Sturdy, they best suit heavy loads during storage or transport.
Their design and precise dimensions make them ideal for conveyor use.
The smooth upper deck is easy to clean and maintains hygienic work conditions.
ESD pallets with a closed deck can be produced with or without a safety edge (rim), with optional metal reinforcements for heavy loads (especially for racking), or with 3/ 5 skids (crossbeams).
They can be safely stored in tall stacks due to their stability when not in use. Stackability provides well-organized, streamlined spaces ready to host other productive activities.

ESD plastic pallets with open deck
ESD open-deck plastic pallets are produced from scratch-resistant materials with conductive or dissipative properties.
The open deck ESD pallets are used with ESD packaging like Euro containers/ boxes/ bins/ crates/ totes/ VDA KLT, and special injected plastic or thermoformed ESD lids.
They are easy to clean and maintain hygienic work conditions.
Due to their sturdiness and impact/shock resistance, ESD medium plastic pallets with an open deck can be used for production, storage (even racking) and long-distance transport.
They can be produced with or without a safety rim (edge), with 3 or 5 crossbeams (skids).

ESD plastic pallet lid
ESD lids and covers for pallets can be produced, like their non-ESD counterparts, from injected plastic or thermoformed ABS sheets.
Both versions provide quality products, resistant to loads and accurate in size.
They can be used with injected plastic containers, flatpack systems (pallet and sleeve), VDA crates and boxes, Euro containers, EPP boxes etc.
It may be used for stacking a variety of pallet types.
Their role is to protect the products from dust or shocks/ accidental vibrations and to protect the boxes against abrasion with neighbouring packages.
They have low own weight, meaning low costs with roundtrip transport and also little pressure for the packed products below it.
Lids are nested to use as little space as possible when stored or returned.
Sturdy, long-lasting, easy to handle by the operators and fully recyclable at the end of their service life.

Two key measures need to be applied at all times to protect ESDS items from electrostatic discharges:
- Electrostatic Sensitive Devices (ESDS) must be handled only in the ESD Protected Areas (EPA), rooms where electrostatic potential differences have been minimized (by implementing multiple groundings).
- ESDS products must be shipped from one EPA to another EPA in ESD packages which do not produce electricity by friction but also shield against possible electrostatic induction caused by external objects.
After the products leave the production point where they rest in a safe environment (ESD safe work surfaces, EPA labelling signs, accessories like grounded wrist straps or other garments, safe flooring, adequate footwear with grounding devices, ESD safe chairs, ESD safe office supplies etc.), there is a risk of exposure to electrostatic hazards that can produce uncontrollable damage.
To avoid accidents, it is highly recommended that all packaging layers are made of ESD, anti-static, or specialized conductive materials.
In this particular situation, the packaging is equally important to the packed products, as inadequate packaging can quickly destroy its content.
The standards for ESD packages are set to provide safe conditions, whether the products are in direct contact with the packaging or not (intimate, proximity and secondary packaging). Yet, clients must know the ESD sensitivity of their products. This can be achieved by measurements or technical specs provided by manufacturers.
ESD packaging provides conductive properties between >1 x 10^2 Ω and <1 x 10^5 Ω or dissipative between >1 x 10^6 Ω and <1 x 10^11 Ω.
Statistics show that 25% of modern electronic equipment is affected because of electrostatic discharges, producing significant losses.
Boxes with ESD properties (conductive or dissipative) are robust and also protect the load against mechanical shocks, dust, and moisture.
The ESD plastic pallets prevent electrostatic discharges to the load by being grounded with the flooring.
All ESD packaging from injected plastic is reusable and complies with the usual requirements of the clients:
- They are produced only from high-quality materials
- They reduce the costs with the packaging in the long run due to their resistance and long service life
- They reduce the amount of industrial waste generated by one-way packaging or damaged products because of improper packaging with no ESD protection
- They can be cleaned and sanitized with industrial washing machines, maintaining a pleasant aspect and safe transports
- They can be used together with accessories like lids and covers (for protection), label holders/self-adhesive labels (better content identification)
