In an increasing number of industrial production processes, static electricity has become a significant hazard that can no longer be ignored. As production requirements continue to rise, antistatic workwear is being used in more and more workplaces. Although the market is flooded with various types of antistatic workwear, their quality is highly inconsistent.
Anti-static workwear has become an indispensable part of industrial production, and in many industries, the mere anti-static function no longer meets all requirements—so how to choose the right one has become a real headache. Today, Tantu Technology would like to share with everyone what aspects you should consider when selecting antistatic workwear.
01 Ensure customer needs are met
Electronics industry
The antistatic performance of antistatic workwear is of paramount importance, because static electricity can not only harm the human body but also cause damage and aging to components and products. Therefore, in the electronics industry... Anti-static performance not only needs to be high but also stable and long-lasting.
Pharmaceutical, food, and other industries
Ensuring the cleanliness of the production workshop is extremely important; therefore, it is required that... In addition to possessing conventional antistatic properties, antistatic workwear also needs to... Possesses excellent dust-free and clean performance.
Different industries have varying requirements for antistatic workwear. When selecting antistatic workwear, it’s important to enhance or add more antistatic performance features based on the specific requirements of your industry.
02 Stable and Qualified Product Performance
SD Electrochemical Performance
Under the premise of cost control, the better the ESD performance of antistatic clothing, the more it will meet the company’s requirements. The surface resistance of conventional antistatic clothing should be between 1 × 10^5 and 1 × 10^11 Ω. 。
Cleanliness Performance
Anti-static clothing not only provides ESD protection but also boasts an important feature: cleanliness performance. Provided that the static-electricity specifications are met, you should choose an anti-static clothing system with excellent cleanliness characteristics.
According to cleanliness levels, antistatic garments can be categorized into Class 100 antistatic garments, Class 10,000 antistatic garments, and Class 100,000 antistatic garments.
Fabric characteristics
Fabrics with surface coatings have the worst ESD performance; the coatings tend to flake off easily and their antistatic properties are unstable. Therefore, whenever possible, you should choose fabrics that have undergone... Fabric made from a blend of composite filaments and conductive yarns.
In terms of service life
You need to choose clothing that is wear-resistant and easy to clean. Low-quality antistatic clothing will no longer meet standards after being washed about 10 times. Under normal use and proper cleaning, our antistatic garments can be repeatedly washed up to 50 times.
In terms of comfort
If the ESD performance meets the standards but employees find the garments extremely uncomfortable to wear, then they still do not meet the requirements. Therefore, if the only requirement is ESD compliance without any cleanliness requirements, you should choose fabrics with good breathability. However, if there are cleanliness requirements, you must take that into account. Choose a balance between comfort and ESD requirements.
In terms of usage frequency
Frequent wear and tear during the manufacturing process, excessively long replacement intervals, or infrequent cleaning can all make it more difficult to clean the fabric, thereby accelerating the aging of the conductive fibers in the fabric and reducing the service life of the antistatic clothing.
Different industries have varying requirements for antistatic workwear. When selecting antistatic workwear, it’s essential to choose products that meet the specific requirements of your industry. At the same time, be sure to select antistatic workwear manufacturers that are reputable and authorized. During procurement, conduct inspections on the antistatic workwear; after washing, perform another round of testing. Only products that consistently meet the standards after both inspections can be considered qualified. Relying on a national CNAS laboratory, Shenzhen Tantu Technology conducts quality testing and control for every batch of products. Additionally, we offer clean-cleaning services to ensure your peace of mind.
