Corstat® In-Plant Handlers

Q: How do these ESD organisers protect against static charges?

The Corstat® coating used to manufacture the in-plant handler range provides Faraday cage protection (when supplied with a lid). This channels any static charges around the outside of the container, helping to prevent damage to your items.

Q: How do Corstat® in-plant handlers accommodate different items?

Corstat® in-plant handlers are flexible and fully adjustable, allowing you to accommodate nearly any board size by simply removing partitions to achieve the desired cell size. Simply select the best Corstat® in-plant handler from the stock range to suit your requirements, or, if none are quite right, you can specify bespoke sizes and configurations.

Q: What does “in plant” mean?

In-plant (or inplant) essentially means a task or process that occurs within a factory or production environment. The Corstat® in-plant handler is so named because it is well-suited for handling and storing electronic components in static-controlled environments.

Q: Is Corstat® environmentally friendly?

Corstat® in-plant handlers are fully recyclable and biodegradable. The inert nature of the material and coating also means any products manufactured from it are completely safe to handle with no requirement for PPE (personal protective equipment).

Q: Why should I use GWP Conductive packaging?

GWP Conductive manufacture the vast majority of products we sell, including not only Corstat® (we coat the corrugated board in–house and manufacture the finished packaging) but also Corriplast®. In-house manufacturing allows us to maintain complete control over the quality of the product you receive. We are also the only UK stockholder of SSI Schaefer conductive products, effectively giving you the broadest range of ESD safe packaging under one roof.
