ESD CONTROL · CLEAN PRODUCTION · MEASURABLE PERFORMANCE
Electronics manufacturing flooring in Singapore
The floor is part of the ESD-control plan.
Electronics production floors must support the facility’s defined resistance, grounding, cleanliness and traffic requirements. Rayson helps project teams define the complete operating condition before selecting the coating system.

01 · Define before selecting
What must be defined before selecting an electronics facility floor?
Start with the facility or project requirement: the applicable ESD target and test method, then the grounding layout, substrate condition, cleaning regime and traffic exposure. Only after these are known can the project team evaluate a complete compatible coating system and plan documented testing after installation.
Grounding path
The coating, grounding points and building earth need coordination before work starts.
Operating environment
Cleanliness, traffic, cleaning and shutdown access all influence the system direction.
Verification plan
Agree who tests, how results are recorded and when the floor will be retested.
02 · One facility, different operating zones
Choose the operating zone before discussing the coating.
Each zone places a different demand on static control, clean maintenance and mechanical wear. Select a zone to see what the project brief needs to establish.
Sensitive component handling
The floor belongs to the component-protection environment.
Define personnel movement, ESD footwear, workstation connections and the required test method. A clean-looking floor is not proof of electrostatic performance.
- ESD target or applicable standard
- Workstation and personnel grounding
- Existing floor and project area
Cleanliness and uptime
Static performance and clean operation have to work together.
Controlled areas also need particle control, seamless cleaning, equipment coordination, air handling and a realistic shutdown window.
- Cleanliness or particle-control requirement
- Cleaning products and frequency
- Equipment zones and shutdown access
Traffic and conductive continuity
Traffic wear cannot be allowed to break the system path.
Trolleys, AGVs and packing operations create concentrated wear routes. The brief should address traffic, grounding and the maintenance plan together.
- AGV, trolley and pedestrian routes
- Storage and packing operations
- Repair and retesting plan
03 · One continuous, measurable path
From substrate to installed-floor testing, every stage has to work together.
This is an illustration of ESD system logic, not a universal specification. The final build-up depends on the project target, substrate and relevant product technical data sheets.
- 01
Prepared substrate
Assess strength, moisture, cracks and existing coatings.
- 02
Repair and primer
Select compatible preparation and primer direction for the substrate.
- 03
Conductive path
Coordinate the conductive layer, grounding points and building earth.
- 04
StaticGuard finish
Apply the confirmed system at its specified thickness.
- 05
Documented verification
Test after cure using the project method and record the result.
04 · Evidence before recommendation
Put the project conditions and published product data in the same room.
Rayson’s technical direction starts with real project information and published product data. A single product should not be specified while the grounding, substrate or test requirement remains unknown.
The project team should provide
- Target resistance or applicable standard
- Test method and acceptance responsibility
- Grounding and electrical coordination drawing
- Existing slab, moisture and existing coating
- Traffic, cleaning and chemical exposure
- Installation and return-to-service window
Primary static-control finish
Rayson StaticGuard CX90
A two-component, solvent-free conductive self-smoothing epoxy finish. Its complete installation, grounding and site performance still have to be confirmed against the project target.
Technical basis: published Rayson StaticGuard CX90 product data and RY-TDS-501.05 · After handover
A floor that measured correctly on day one must remain inside the control programme.
- 01
Verify
Complete installed-floor testing using the project method.
- 02
Record
Keep baseline readings, locations and test conditions.
- 03
Maintain
Use cleaning methods that do not leave an insulating film.
- 04
Retest
Retest to the facility plan and repair damage promptly.

Tell us how the space operates—not only what colour you want.
Choose the closest project condition. We will carry this information into the technical project brief so you do not type it twice. Rayson will provide its first response within one working day.

Questions electronics project teams ask
Are conductive and static-dissipative floors the same?
No. The applicable classification and target must come from the facility’s ESD-control plan or project standard. StaticGuard CX90’s published performance must be considered together with installation, grounding and site test results.
Does an ESD floor need grounding?
The grounding layout is part of the complete system. Grounding points, conductive layers and the building earth should be coordinated with the project team and electrical contractor before installation.
How is the installed floor verified?
After full cure, carry out documented resistance testing using the method specified by the project. Equipment, environment, cleaning state and test locations can affect the reading.
Can an existing conductive floor simply be overcoated?
It should not be overcoated without assessment. First check adhesion, continuity, substrate, contamination and current test performance, then determine the preparation route.
