Static-dissipative and conductive foam packaging for electronics, PCB and sensitive component handling. Custom-cut trays, inserts and component cavities matched to your board or part geometry, with the surface resistivity grade appropriate to your component sensitivity class.
Electrostatic discharge (ESD) can damage or degrade sensitive electronic components even without a visible or felt spark — a static event too small to notice can still compromise a component's performance or long-term reliability. Standard packaging foam builds up and holds a static charge, which is exactly the wrong property when the product inside is static-sensitive. ESD-safe and anti-static foam grades are engineered with surface resistivity properties that dissipate charge rather than allowing it to build up or discharge suddenly into the component.
Reduces static charge buildup. Suitable for general electronics handling and less static-sensitive components. Commonly pink by industry convention.
Lower surface resistivity, dissipates charge faster. Used for more static-sensitive components. Commonly black by industry convention.
Color is a visual identification convention, not the functional specification itself — what matters is the material's actual surface resistivity, which should match your component's static sensitivity classification. Our team can help match the appropriate grade to your specification.

What is the difference between anti-static and conductive foam?
Anti-static foam reduces static charge buildup and is suitable for general electronics handling. Conductive foam has lower surface resistivity and actively dissipates charge faster, typically used for more static-sensitive components. Your component's sensitivity level determines which grade is appropriate.
Does ESD foam need to be pink or black to work?
Color (commonly pink for anti-static, black for conductive) is an industry convention for visual identification, not a functional requirement in itself — what matters is the material's actual surface resistivity properties, which should be confirmed against your specification.
Can ESD-safe foam be cut to a custom tray shape?
Yes. We CNC route or die-cut ESD-safe and anti-static foam into custom trays, inserts and component cavities matched to your PCB or component geometry.
What certifications apply to ESD packaging foam?
ESD packaging is generally expected to meet relevant surface resistivity specifications for the sensitivity class of components being protected. Confirm your specific testing standard requirement with our team, and we can discuss what documentation is available.
Is ESD foam suitable for long-term component storage?
Yes, ESD-safe foam is commonly used for both transit packaging and longer-term component storage trays, provided storage conditions (humidity, temperature) are within the material's normal operating range.
