PosiTile + StaticWorx ShadowFX Carpet Tile
The Simple, Smart Solution for Access Floors
We’ve partnered with Tate to offer our modular carpet as PosiTile—their carpet tile solution for access floors. It’s the smart way to go for workspaces that need easy access to underfloor cabling and wiring but want the warmth and beauty of soft flooring. You get all the performance and aesthetic benefits of StaticWorx modular carpet along with the full flexibility of an access floor using the one-to-one fit of PosiTile.
How Does It Work
Four ultrasonically welded buttons on the underside of each carpet tile precisely align with four matching holes in Tate’s ConCore® panel, making the carpet tile and access panel one unit. This eliminates the need for glue and makes reconfiguration quick and easy. Even service boxes or diffusers move faster and create less waste because there’s no need to cut new carpet tiles to fit.

An Excerpt From ESD Prevention Document ANSI/ESD S20.20
Transportation of ESDS items outside an ESD Protected Area (hereafter referred to as “EPA”) requires enclosure in static protective materials, although the type of material depends on the situation and destination. Inside an EPA, low charging and static dissipative materials may provide adequate protection. Outside an EPA, low-charging and static-discharge shielding materials are recommended. While these materials are not discussed in the document, it is important to recognize the differences in their application. For more clarification, see ANSI/ESD S541.
StaticWorx ESD Message Tiles
Another Benefit: Defining the Boundaries of Your ESD Protected Areas
The edges of your ESD-Protected Areas (EPAs) should be well-marked, particularly in high-traffic areas such as entrances and exits where employees travel back and forth between protected and unprotected areas. Labeling these boundaries helps prevent the improper transportation of ESD-sensitive electronics out of the protected area. Clearly marked boundaries also caution employees, in addition to plant visitors, to take proper precautions, such as wearing ESD-approved footwear, before entering an EPA.
StaticWorx offers ESD messaging tiles for our modular vinyl, rubber, and carpet tiles. Our message tiles seamlessly match the StaticWorx flooring installed at your site. So, define your ESD-protected areas and protect your bottom line.
