ESD Clothing

UK Clobber now manufacture ESD Clothing to specification.

As electronic components become progressively more sensitive to their assembly environments, manufacturers are examining all aspects of production, particularly the hazards of electrostatic discharge.

ESD clothing is a key defense in minimizing circuit damage from personnel ESD paths. This is because the conductive properties of ESD garments minimize tribocharging, a major source of electrostatic build-up generated within personal clothing during body movement.

ESD, or ElectroStatic Discharge, is one of the few things an individual can do to damage or destroy his or her computer or hardware components. Much like the shock you receive when rubbing your feet on the carpet and touching something metal, ESD can occur when working on your computer and will cause components you touch to no longer work properly. ESD can occur without the user feeling a shock and will only occur while working on the inside of the computer or handling an expansion card.
