Static is generated on people, furniture, flooring and material handling equipment in the modern production and testing environments. This discharge of static through sensitive electronic devices can irreversibly harm the electronic devices causing loss of components, lower reliability and reduced productivity of the facility. In Test Lab (Example: Embedded technology, nanotechnology, MEMS etc) environments, static can cause glitches in the operation of the circuitry under observation and hence can negatively impact the output of testing or product validation resulting in longer lead time required for design and validation activites.

This makes it imperative to have sound ESD Control built into the environment of the facility. This typically involves the following components:

	ESD Safe Flooring
	ESD Safe Workbenches and Tables
	ESD Safe Chairs
	ESD Safe Trolleys for movement of materials
	ESD Safe Storage racks
	Accessories such as ESD magnifiers, tools and fixtures

At Cir-Q-Tech Tako Technologies we have a long experience with making facilities compatible to handling ESD Sensitive electronic devices and components. We involve with the customer in the following manner:

• Planning:

Interacting with the customers and understanding the ESD control needs of the facility. Educating thecustomer on the standards (international or corporate or customer based) practiced for such an environment. Our engineers work with the customer in planning the facility such as the worktables, flooring, chairs, trolleys etc.

• Implementation:

Supply of the required materials on turn-key basis.

• Check:

Testing and Certification - Our highly experienced team of engineers test all the aspects of the ESD control programme using high end ESD Test Instrumentation and provide a certificate of compliance.
