ESD vs. Switchboard Matting: Life or Death
Why is knowing the difference between switchboard and ESD matting so important?
There’s an all-too-common misconception that all mats designed to reduce some kind of shock have the same properties. Both ESD (conductive matting) and switchboard matting (non-conductive matting) reduce shock, but they’re on completely opposite sides of the spectrum. It’s critical that users know the difference because it could save not only work projects but more importantly, lives. This is one matting decision that needs to be taken seriously.
