Electrostatic dissipative mats protect equipment and products that are sensitive to static electricity. These mats can include grounded floor mats that are designed to ease the pain and stress of prolonged periods of standing and table top mats that are designed to provide protection for sensitive electronics and other materials.
Conductive mats are essential elements for every electronics workstation because they absorb thousands of volts in static electricity that normally build up as people walk across floors and roll on chairs. These mats work in conjunction with static wristbands and other precautions to create safe areas needed for successful assembly and repair work.
