ESD partitions for tote boxes
If you need tote divisions to protect ESD (electrostatic discharge) sensitive items, Corstat® dividers are the industry-standard choice.
Corstat® dividers are also known as ESD partitions or divisions for boxes. When placed inside a compatible tote container, they create a network of cells for storing smaller parts or components. The tote dividers prevent damage by counteracting static and limiting movement during handling or transport. They also enable quicker, easier loading and unloading, improving staff efficiency.
At GWP Conductive, we design, manufacture and hold in stock the largest range of anti-static packaging. We are the sole UK manufacturers of Corstat® products and exclusive stockholders of SSI Schaefer’s conductive range. And if a stock product isn’t exactly right for your business, our expert designers can create a bespoke ESD packaging solution tailored to your exact requirements.

Benefits of Corstat® dividers
By enhancing your ESD containers with Corstat® divisions, you can benefit in several ways:
FAQs
What tote boxes do these dividers fit?
The conductive tote divisions are designed to fit the popular stacking totes in 600mm x 400mm and 400mm x 300mm sizes and are available in two standard heights. This configuration means they are also compatible with most industry-standard handling totes/containers, such as the SSI Schafer EF Series.
Are these Corstat® dividers fixed or adjustable?
With slots at 30mm increments, you can arrange the divisions to create a network of cells to suit your particular application, without the need to invest in tooling. If these divisions do not fit your specific application, however, it is possible to manufacture bespoke sizes and configurations in any quantity to fulfil your individual requirements.
How does using Corstat® dividers improve efficiency?
Using totes with dividers can significantly improve handling efficiency. It allows for more items to be safely placed into an outer container, improving part density during handling. The opposite is also true, with dividers preventing users from overloading the container (itself a health and safety issue). Dividers can also make retrieval of parts from the tote container easier and aid quick visual stock checks.
Why are these dividers ESD safe?
Created from Corstat® conductive fibre board, Corstat® stacking tote divisions are both robust and fully ESD safe. The Corstat® coating – effectively a carbon black coating – conducts ESD, channelling it away from the contents of the division set.
Do ESD partitions also protect from physical damage?
ESD partitions also help to eliminate general damage caused by mishandling (i.e. shock, impact). They do this by minimising the movement of individual parts within the cells of the division set, preventing them from colliding with the container’s outer walls or with other parts/components within the same box.
