Ultimately, our shielding bags prevent ESD energy from penetrating, whereas pink antistatic bags only reduce charge buildup.
With our packaging, there is a significantly lower risk of latent device failure or field returns due to ESD damage.
Our bags are preferred by manufacturers and exporters of electronic and medical devices where compliance and reliability are critical.
As our bags are manufactured from a multi-layer metallised laminate, they form a continuous Faraday cage around the contents, effectively preventing electrostatic discharge (ESD) events from reaching the product.
While pink antistatic polythene bags only offer surface charge dissipation and limited short-term protection, our Static Shielding bags provide true electrostatic shielding, ensuring components remain fully protected even when exposed to high-risk environments or external static fields.
Technical Advantages:
- Faraday cage protection: Blocks external static fields and discharges.
- Multi-layer barrier: Combines static shielding with moisture and contamination resistance.
- Low tribocharging: Minimizes charge generation during handling and packaging operations.
- Consistent surface resistance: Meets industry requirements for ESD-safe packaging.
- Optically transparent: Allows barcode and component identification without opening.
- Available configurations: Open-top, custom sizes, and custom printing.
- Standards compliance: IEC 61340-5-1 and ANSI/ESD S541 compliant.
Applications:
Ideal for packaging PCBs, semiconductors, sub-assemblies, and precision electronic devices requiring certified static protection during shipment or storage.
