Despite your stance on the subject, the American firearm and ammunition industry remains strong and continues to grow at a steady pace. With this in mind, safety in all aspects becomes of the utmost importance. From consumer education to manufacturing precautions, each and every detail plays a role.
So what does this mean for the engineers at SelecTech?
SelecTech is proud to partner with some of the country’s top manufacturers of ammunition manufacturing in providing antistatic epoxy alternatives that surpass all other flooring options on the market. Here, we look closer at the requirements, our innovative solutions and provide a few takeaways for your company.
What is PolyStyle ESD?
PolyStyle ESD is a multi-layer flooring system consisting of a primer/barrier coat, a conductive ground-plane coat, and a highly durable polyurethane ESD/color coat. This three-part system provides a highly reliable ESD floor system that ensures compliance with strict ESD standards like ANSI/ESD S20.20, with consistent system resistance and low body voltage generation.
Polyurethane vs. Epoxy
The differences are vast when comparing polyurethane to epoxy. However, the benefits of polyurethane, the antistatic epoxy, far outshine those of the alternative. One of the top reasons companies are turning away from epoxy revolves around the uneven disbursement of traditional additives. When you consider companies relying on stringent static control in their flooring, such as firearm manufacturing, aerospace, or military manufacturing sites, you can quickly understand why anything less than perfect is not ideal.
Key Benefits of AntiStatic Epoxy (PolyStyle ESD)
- Most consistent ESD properties on the market with state-of-the-art ESD additives guaranteed to disperse evenly
- Polyurethane top coat provides exceptional durability, toughness, and scratch resistance
- Withstands high-moisture concrete
- Excellent stain resistance
- High point load resistance
- Easy installation
These benefits make PolyStyle the ideal choice for industrial applications such as:
- Electronics Manufacturing Areas
- EV Charging Stations
- Sensitive Product Storage Areas
- Transport Aisles
- Shipping and Receiving Areas
- Aircraft Hangers
- Explosives Areas
- Highly Conductive Aerospace Environments
As one of the most quickly emerging technologies, PolyStyle ESD is a top contender in antistatic epoxy flooring alternatives. Because PolyStyle ESD ML must be applied by an authorized StaticStop Installer and is only sold as a turn-key, installed system, this product is not another turn of the mill flooring option. Instead, it has become the flooring option across various industries.
