No Seepage, No Mess, Quick & Easy to Install
Replaces Slow, Messy Installations with Dark Wet-set Adhesives
Most suppliers provide carbon black and dark graphite adhesives. These adhesives are troweled on the floor. The tiles must be placed while the adhesive is wet, resulting in a slow and messy installation.
When the floor is rolled, dark wet-adhesive often seeps through the seams. The only way to clean the mess from seepage is to wipe the tiles with solvents and mineral spirits while the adhesive is still wet. If you wait until it’s dry, wet-set adhesive is very difficult to remove.
Clear GroundTack™ adhesive is clean, easy to install and handles traffic immediately
Installing ShadowFX carpet tile with GroundTack reduces labor costs, installs faster, and eliminates downtime and shutdowns.
StaticWorx GroundTack releasable adhesive replaces messy epoxies and conductive one-part acrylic emulsions. GroundTack installs easily and can handle traffic immediately.
Unlike wet-set adhesives, GroundTack is allowed to dry completely before tiles are installed, so there’s no seepage when the floor is rolled. With no time-consuming clean-up to worry about, your installation team can install ShadowFX carpet tiles quickly and easily.
Best of all, with no noxious odors, VOCs or chemicals to worry about, you can install GroundTack in 24/7 occupied spaces. Because the adhesive bonds upon contact, the floor is immediately ready for traffic.
Excellent Bond with the Flexibility of a Releasable Adhesive
When installed under modular carpet, GroundTack provides an excellent bond while providing the flexibility of a releasable adhesive.
GroundTack adhesive stays tacky. Because it never dries completely, static-dissipative carpet tiles are easy to lift and remove for repair, replacement or reuse, without your installer ever having to put down more adhesive.

How is GroundTack different from traditional adhesives?
Unlike dark wet-set adhesives, GroundTack dries completely before tiles are installed, eliminating seepage, mess, and clean-up. It allows fast, low-downtime installations in occupied spaces.
Does it provide reliable static control?
Yes. Its proprietary carbon-particulate technology ensures a continuous conductive path beneath the carpet, maintaining compliance with ESD standards across the installation.
Is it safe for use in occupied environments?
Absolutely. GroundTack has low VOCs, no noxious odors, and no harsh chemicals, making it suitable for offices, labs, healthcare, and other operational spaces.
Can tiles be removed or replaced after installation?
Yes. GroundTack remains tacky but releasable, allowing carpet tiles to be lifted, repaired, or reused without additional adhesive.
Is GroundTack environmentally responsible?
Yes. It is FloorScore® certified, has VOC content <0.1 lbs/gallon, and contributes to LEED credit 4.1 for low-emitting materials.
