Static Dissipative and Conductive Floors for Superior Static Control
As a person walks across a standard epoxy floor, it is very easy to build up static charge through friction because epoxy acts as an insulative material. Where there is static, there is electro-static discharge. This can cause mayhem in certain industries.
ESD floors, also known as static-dissipative floors (1 Mohm to 1000 Mohms) or conductive floors (.025 Mohms to 1 Mohms), provide superior static control, inhibiting static electricity on a person or from reaching sensitive equipment.}
Stonlux is an ultra-smooth, liquid-rich self leveling floor. It’s the prime choice for environments in need of static control and low-friction flooring such as clean rooms, laboratories, data centers, and studios.
Stonshield textured epoxy and urethane flooring is safe and easy to clean, offering wide-ranging design flexibility. With a myriad of patterns and textures for light industrial and commercial environments, it offers ultra-slip-resistant protection too.
Stonclad is a high-strength industrial and commercial flooring system available in epoxy and urethane formulations for heavy-duty environments. Chemical, abrasion and impact resistant, Stonclad can also be configured to meet the needs of static control and temperature-dependent environments. Eco-friendly recycled glass applications are available. Less industrial areas benefit from its wide-ranging color palette.
Stonhard ESD flooring provides superior static control while providing a number of other performance and aesthetic benefits.
This specialized flooring is essential for environments where static electricity can damage sensitive equipment, disrupt operations, or pose safety hazards. View some of the applications for ESD flooring below.
ESD seamless floors reduce static risks for servers, networking equipment, and other critical IT infrastructure.
ESD seamless flooring offers an easy-to-clean surface, chemical resistance, and static control. Stonhard ESD flooring is built to maintain the highest standards of cleanliness while being durable, easy to maintain, and customizable.
In pharmaceutical processing, maintaining a controlled, contamination-free environment is critical. ESD flooring plays a crucial role in ensuring product integrity, safety, and compliance with industry regulations.
ESD flooring is essential in electronics manufacturing to prevent electrostatic discharge that can damage sensitive components, ensuring product reliability and reducing costly failures. It helps facilities comply with industry standards and enhances workplace safety.
Aerospace AGVs often carry large, heavy parts like fuselage sections or engine components. ESD flooring in these areas must be durable enough to withstand high traffic and heavy loads while maintaining static control. In addition, aerospace facilities work with volatile chemicals, fuels, and composites that can ignite due to static. ESD flooring helps reduce this risk.
Stonhard is the unprecedented leader in manufacturing and installing high-performance floors. Our seamless, long-lasting, easy-to-clean systems are engineered for both industrial and commercial markets. We also bring the same performance to our wall and lining systems.

The area is inspected prior to installation to determine the right system required for the area and the type of testing required. Based on the condition of the slab, use of the space, or age of the building, different tests may be required, such as Calcium Chloride or Relative Humidity testing to determine the moisture content of the slab or contamination. Proper conductivity requirements are discussed with the customer to determine which ESD system is required.
Based on the information found from these tests and onsite visits, the proper preparation procedure is determined. This may include mechanical preparation with media blasting, diamond grinding, and removal by jack hammers and chipping guns. If slabs are determined to be contaminated with oils, de-greasing may be necessary to achieve proper adhesion. Preparation is the most important process to ensure there is a proper bond to the substrate.
Installation of the system will vary depending on the specific system (broadcast, mortar, self-leveler). Common installation procedures vary from screeding and troweling the material, squeegeeing and rolling the material, and broadcasting the material. Grounding plates and joint bridge details are utilized to properly ground the flooring system. All details, including waterproofing, cove base, penetrations, drains, etc., are discussed prior to installation.These will be handled properly to ensure a good quality ESD floor installation with professionally trained installation teams. After application and cure of the ESD flooring, ESD properties are tested to insure proper readings for the space.
Seamless urethane floors are known for their easy cleaning and maintenance procedures, however each environment has its own specific requirements and standards to meet. Stonhard Territory Managers work with customers directly to provide the right cleaning solution for the specific environment. In addition, Stonhard's division Stonkleen provides cleaning products that are tough on dirt and stains, easy to use, sustainable, and formulated to maintain Stonhard seamless flooring systems.
