Description

More info on anti static Ethafoam

As well as providing exceptional anti-static properties, Ethafoam is also widely regarded as a true high-performance packaging foam. As such, it is ideal to protect sensitive electronic devices which may also be susceptible to shock, impact, and vibration during transit.

Frequently used in its non-conductive form for use in corrugated transit packaging (for example as end caps, foam blocks or general foam packaging) GWP can offer an unmatched level of expertise in its design and fabrication across a wide range of applications.

ESD grade Ethafoam is an anti static Polyethylene foam that provides a controlled dissipation of electrostatic charges emitted from other neighbouring materials and personnel during handling, assembly, and transit of the product.

It offers a high degree of consistent, reliable performance that makes it a popular choice for manufacturers of high-value, delicate and static-sensitive equipment. As a result, it can be specified to enhance virtually all of the Corstat® and anti static packaging products available from GWP.

How pink anti static Ethafoam works

Already used in its’ non-conductive form throughout the Packaging division of GWP’s business, the anti-static grade Ethafoam used at GWP Conductive contains internal anti-static agents designed to eliminate static potential from the foam itself.

It also dissipates electrostatic discharges from other sources (e.g. generated by handling, neighbouring components, external atmosphere etc.) and meets various standard such as EIA 541, ANSI; EOS/ESD.
