BULK PRINTED CIRCUIT BOARD ESD BAGS AND POUCHES
Investing in wholesale ESD packaging is a budget-stretching way to get practical protection for your printed circuit boards. Choose Caltex Plastics, a market-leading plastics manufacturer supplying ESD packaging at bulk pricing, for cost-effective product protection.
Protect Your Printed Circuit Boards From ESD During Shipment
Printed circuit boards support vital functions in electronic devices through the thousands of tiny connections they host. As a result, they have complex designs that are especially sensitive to electrostatic discharge (ESD).
ESD Explained
ESD occurs when static electricity builds up in an object and then contacts another with the opposite charge. The stored current passes between the two, releasing that energy. It takes as few as 10 volts to damage sensitive printed circuit boards. That amount can quickly build up in standard packaging during shipment as the component shifts during handling. Using anti-static and static-shielding packaging helps reduce the risks of product loss and protect your company’s quality reputation.
How ESD Packaging Helps Prevent Damage
ESD bags and pouches are specialized solutions that help dissipate or shield against static. They have multiple layers of material, including a conductive metal layer and an outer plastic one with a coating that transforms it into a dielectric. Together, these elements form a Faraday cage that protects the contents inside from an ESD event during shipment.
