ProShieldESD Coating Platform

Permanent ESD Control

ProShieldESD is a coating platform, not a single paint. Built on a novel 100% conductive polymer backbone, it delivers permanent static dissipative or conductive performance across multiple chemistries and substrates.

The core engineering value is simple: convert insulating materials into static-dissipative or conductive surfaces without redesigning the base part.

In many ESD applications the target is a stable static-dissipative surface rather than a highly conductive finish, typically in the range of 106–109 Ω/sq. Learn more about how ESD coatings work and where they are used.

Intrinsically conductive polymer ESD coating vs carbon-filled ESD polymer showing percolation-based vs intrinsic conductivity and stable surface resistance
Comparison of carbon-filled ESD coatings and intrinsically conductive polymer (ICP) coatings, showing how filler-dependent conductivity differs from stable, bulk conductivity.

What Makes the ProShieldESD Coating Platform Different

Filler-Free, Percolation-Free Conductivity

No carbon black or metal fillers. Conductivity is built into the polymer backbone, eliminating dependence on filler networks and delivering stable, predictable performance over time.

Stable Electrical Performance

Surface resistance remains consistent across humidity, wear and coating thickness. Tunable to IEC 61340 dissipative ranges (106–109 Ω/sq) or to conductive levels as required.

One Platform, Multiple Chemistries

Available in PU, epoxy, water-based and solvent-based systems, allowing selection based on substrate, environment and application method.

Universal Surface Upgrade

Convert standard materials into ESD-safe surfaces without redesign. Suitable for floors, walls, plastics, metals, composites, foams, wood, cartons and production fixtures.

Cost-Effective and Scalable

Upgrade existing assets instead of specifying conductive plastics or specialist furniture. Reduce redesign, tooling and replacement costs while maintaining ESD control.

What Engineering Problem Does ProShieldESD Solve?

Many commonly used materials in equipment, packaging and industrial infrastructure are electrical insulators. Plastics, composites, foams, painted metals and other surfaces may allow static charge to accumulate during handling, airflow, friction or normal operation.

Traditional solutions often require conductive fillers, specialist plastics or expensive redesign of the underlying component. ProShieldESD offers a different route by applying controlled conductivity directly to the surface.

The result is a practical way to upgrade existing parts, housings, fixtures and equipment surfaces into static-dissipative or conductive surfaces without changing the whole product architecture. In many real-world ESD applications, the most useful outcome is a controlled static-dissipative surface rather than a highly conductive one.

Engineering Applications of the ProShieldESD Platform

ProShieldESD coatings are used to convert insulating materials into controlled static-dissipative surfaces across real operating environments. The pages below focus on where this approach is applied in practice.

Applying ESD coatings to moving or rotating components introduces additional engineering challenges around durability, wear and grounding continuity. For a practical example, see anti-static coating on rotating fan blades.
