Traditional ESD flooring relies on carbon fibres for conductivity, which repetitively creates hotspots and uneven distribution of static charges that discolour light-coloured surface finishings or decorative floors. Carbon fibre-free ESD flooring eliminates this issue by using single-walled carbon nanotubes (SWCNTs), maintaining stable conductivity and more visually appealing finishes.
Electrostatic discharge (ESD) floors are specialized systems specifically engineered to protect sensitive electronic components from damage due to static electricity buildup. This charge typically accumulates from regular foot traffic and equipment movement across the surface. As individuals walk on these floors, friction from their shoes and clothing can generate static electricity, which poses a risk to electronics, even from minor discharges.
Choosing the right flooring for your outdoor space can significantly enhance its functionality and aesthetic appeal. With a variety of materials available, it’s essential to consider several factors to ensure you make the best choice for your needs. This guide explores some common types of outdoor flooring and key considerations for selecting the right one for your space.
In November 2023, the World Health Organisation (WHO) launched a guide on whole genome sequencing for foodborne disease surveillance. Studies have also predicted a USD$10.4 Billion growth in the food pathogen safety testing market by 2028, highlighting global attention on preventing foodborne illnesses.
Flowscreed Micro is designed for contemporary spaces (interiors and exteriors) looking to achieve a natural-look concrete palette, with a highly abrasion-resistant finish. The system is formulated using high-grade cement with a special polymer resin and selected aggregates, additives, and unique pigment paste.
In the manufacturing industry, the risk of explosive or flammable liquids, powders, and gases, can ignite during electrostatic discharge resulting in catastrophic events. When this happens, not only equipment can be damaged, but human lives are also in danger.
Following a year of behind-the-scenes work, in June 2020 we formally launched the Tremco CPG APAC brand. An amalgamation of globally recognised building material brands that provide construction professionals with a single contact for sourcing all six sides of the building envelope. The launch began with the consolidation and name change for our Flowcrete and Tremco entities, all aligning under the Tremco CPG name.
Tremco CPG APAC is a subsidiary of USA-based Tremco Inc. and provides solutions from several world leading construction brands consisting of Tremco, illbruck, Flowcrete, Vandex, Nullifire, Dryvit, Nudura, NewBrick, Willseal and Euclid Chemical. Product lines include high-performance silicone and urethane joint sealants, waterproofing solutions, trafficable deck coatings, expansion joints, exterior insulation and finish systems, passive fire protection, and specialist resinous flooring solutions.
In recent months, Flowcrete Australia has been busy moving from its original premise at Smeaton Grange to Eastern Creek in Sydney. The relocation which consolidates two separate facilities into one central location provides a more efficient and streamlined service for customers of Tremco CPG Australia, thus enforcing the vision of Tremco CPG as a single source solution provider for the construction market.
To celebrate this milestone, an opening ceremony took place at the new premises on Tuesday 15th September 2020.
