The ZENSTAT Range

For projects that need the conductive primer, copper grid and grounding network every ESD floor is built on.

For electronics assembly, server rooms and labs needing a controlled, static-dissipative floor.

For the most static-sensitive electronics and hazardous or explosive-risk zones needing a fully conductive floor.

They are not interchangeable words, they are different resistance bands. A static-dissipative floor sits in the 10 to the 6 to 10 to the 9 ohm band, and a conductive floor at 10 to the 6 ohm and below, with values per the product TDS. Anti-static on its own usually only describes reduced tribocharging and is not a measured band at all. The distinction is explained in ESD versus anti-static versus conductive flooring.

That is set by the standard your operation works to, not by preference. IEC 61340-5-1 and ANSI ESD S20.20 define the ESD control programme and the limits that apply to flooring within it, and an electronics assembly line, a panel room and an explosives magazine can land in different bands. POLYZEN supplies systems that support compliance with these standards; the qualifying measurement is taken on the finished installed floor.

By measurement on the completed floor, not by a claim on a datasheet. Resistance is measured point to point and point to ground under defined conditions, because humidity, cleaning residue and even footwear change the reading. Our ESD resistance checker shows which band a measured value falls into.

Prime is the base and earthing groundwork layer, and is described as anti-static framing only. It is the preparation and grounding side of an ESD floor rather than the conductive or dissipative wearing layer itself, and it is specified together with the system above it.

Only if it is maintained and re-tested. The commonest cause of a failing ESD floor is not the resin but the cleaning: the wrong polish, sealer or residue can insulate the surface and take a compliant floor out of band without any visible change. Periodic measurement is part of owning one.

Sometimes, but the earthing design has to be worked out for that build-up, and the existing surface has to be tested and mechanically prepared. An ESD system installed over an unsuitable base can measure correctly on the day and drift out of band later.

An ESD floor is priced as a system, not a coating: the earthing groundwork, the conductive or dissipative layer and the verification measurement all sit inside the scope. For an indicative budget in about two minutes, without a call, use CostMyFloor. A firm quotation follows a site survey.
