Applications of the ProShieldESD Coating Platform

Electrostatic discharge (ESD) is a persistent challenge across almost every sector — from damaging microelectronics to creating ignition hazards in volatile environments. Traditional anti-static coatings and ESD plastics can degrade, lose effectiveness, or require costly replacement. The ProShieldESD coating platform changes that. Built on a permanent, filler-free conductive polymer backbone, it delivers lasting static dissipative and conductive performance across industries and substrates.

What makes ProShieldESD different is not just the chemistry — it’s the breadth of its applications. This isn’t a single product. It’s a platform technology that can be adapted across multiple coating chemistries and surface types.

Why Applications Matter

Every industry faces unique ESD risks:

• Electronics: a single static event can damage sensitive components.
• Aerospace & defence: static discharge can compromise mission-critical systems.
• Logistics: packaging must remain stable across wide humidity changes.

With ProShieldESD, one platform addresses these challenges without fillers, frequent reapplication cycles, or expensive engineered plastics.

Key Industry Applications

Electronics & Semiconductor

ProShieldESD creates consistent static control across tools, fixtures, floors, and packaging. Unlike many conventional ESD paints, it maintains stable resistivity even in low humidity—reducing the risk of latent damage in sensitive assemblies.

Aerospace & Defence

Aerospace and defence systems demand durable performance under extremes of temperature, altitude, and vibration. ProShieldESD can be applied to composites, racks, and test infrastructure to support permanent static control without adding significant weight or forcing redesign.

Military & Ruggedised Systems

From field electronics to vehicle housings, rugged equipment must remain reliable in harsh environments. ProShieldESD coatings retrofit onto existing systems, helping reduce cost while maintaining performance over time.

Pharma & Healthcare

Static control is also important for safety and cleanliness. ProShieldESD can help keep cleanroom walls, ceilings, and equipment static-safe, reducing dust attraction and supporting controlled environments.

Automotive & Battery

With the rise of EV manufacturing, static control has become central to quality and safety. ProShieldESD can be used on floors, racks, and enclosures to support safe handling of sensitive battery modules and electronics.

Energy & Chemicals

In environments handling powders, gases, or volatile liquids, static sparks can present ignition risk. ProShieldESD coatings can be applied to drums, vessels, and pipes to provide stable discharge paths without relying on fillers that wear away.

RF & Antenna Systems

A key advantage of ProShieldESD is its potential for signal-friendly static control. Unlike many carbon-filled coatings that can detune or attenuate RF performance, ProShieldESD can dissipate static without relying on heavy conductive fillers—supporting applications such as radomes, antenna housings, and radar-related enclosures.

Packaging & Logistics

Packaging must travel across varying climates. ProShieldESD provides permanent static control for cartons, foams, and crates—reducing dependency on expensive ESD-rated packaging materials.

Explosives & Pyrotechnics

In explosive or pyrotechnic environments, static discharge can be dangerous. ProShieldESD coatings can create safer discharge paths on bins, crates, and work surfaces, including in low-humidity conditions.

Why ProShieldESD is a Platform, Not Just a Paint

ProShieldESD is more than a single coating. It’s a platform technology that can be supplied in multiple chemistries (for example polyurethane, epoxy, water-based, and solvent-based variants). These are examples, not limits. If you can coat it, you can protect it.

This flexibility allows manufacturers to integrate permanent static control into existing finishing processes—making ESD protection scalable, cost-effective, and future-proof.
