One static discharge can destroy a circuit board. When your Las Vegas manufacturing operation handles sensitive electronics, the floor must actively drain static charge before it reaches components. We install and verify ESD-dissipative concrete systems engineered to meet ANSI/ESD standards, with grounding integrated into your building's electrical system and megohmmeter verification at handoff. Free written estimate included.
A floor that is purely conductive creates electrical hazards. A floor that is purely insulating lets static charge accumulate. The ESD sweet spot is dissipative: it allows charge to flow to ground at a controlled rate, fast enough to prevent buildup but slow enough to avoid electrical shock risk. This narrow resistance window is what the ANSI/ESD standard defines.
We specify the ESD system to your facility's standard (electronics manufacturing, clean room, pharmaceutical), install the dissipative epoxy with the right conductive loading, embed copper ground strips at engineered spacing, and connect those strips to your building's electrical ground. After cure, we verify the finished floor with a megohmmeter across multiple points to confirm it lands in the target resistance range.
How ESD Flooring Installation Unfolds in Las Vegas
Assess and specify
We review your ANSI/ESD standard, identify which zones require static control, confirm the target resistance range, and coordinate with your electrical contractor on the grounding scheme that ties the floor to the building ground.
Prepare slab and ground
The concrete slab is diamond-ground to the system profile. Copper ground strips are set into the floor at the engineered spacing, and electrical connections are made to the building ground at designated points per the electrical plan.
Apply dissipative system
The ESD-rated epoxy is applied in layers, primer through topcoat, with conductive elements (carbon black, conductive aggregate) at the specified loading to achieve the target resistance window.
Verify and document
After full cure, the floor is tested with a megohmmeter at multiple locations across each zone. Resistance readings are recorded, compared to the spec, and documented in a compliance report handed to your facility for audit and recertification tracking.
The critical step
Megohmmeter Verification Proves the System Works
An ESD floor that looks finished but does not meet the resistance spec is a liability, not a solution. Megohmmeter testing at multiple points across the finished floor is the only way to confirm the system is actually dissipating static charge at the right rate. We never hand off an ESD installation without verified resistance documentation in hand.
Maintenance matters too. ESD-compatible cleaning chemicals preserve the resistance range; standard wax, solvent-based cleaners, or aggressive scrubbing can degrade the system. The maintenance protocol and recertification schedule are part of the project handoff. Coordinate with your manufacturing operations team and your industrial concrete contractor on the long-term care plan.
Resistance ranges, grounding, verification and which manufacturing zones need ESD.
With a megohmmeter (high-resistance ohmmeter) at multiple test points across the floor, comparing to the ANSI/ESD standard's specified range. The reading needs to fall inside the dissipative window, not too low (conductive) or too high (insulating).
Only zones where ESD-sensitive components are handled. Electronics assembly, clean rooms, repair benches, certain pharmaceutical processes. The rest of the facility uses standard manufacturing flooring. We define the zones with you and your safety/engineering team.
Copper ground strips embedded in the floor at the engineered spacing connect to the building electrical ground at designated points. The electrical contractor coordinates with us on the connections and verifies the grounding scheme.
Many years with proper maintenance. ESD-compatible cleaning chemicals preserve the system; standard wax or solvent-based cleaners can compromise the resistance range. The maintenance protocol is part of project handoff and includes recertification cadence.
Similar to other epoxy systems plus the grounding install and verification steps. A typical zone takes a week to install and verify; multi-zone facilities stretch to several weeks with phased install. The schedule is in the quote.

What Las Vegas Manufacturers Say About Their ESD Systems
ESD floor installed and verified across our assembly zone. Resistance documentation supported our customer compliance audit. The system has held for two years of daily operation.

Electronics Plant Manager, Las Vegas
★★★★★
They knew the ANSI/ESD spec cold, coordinated with our electrical contractor on grounding, verified with the megohmmeter at handoff. No improvisation, no audit findings.
Y. X4
Production Engineer, Henderson
★★★★★
Stricter clean room ESD spec, they hit it. Documentation, grounding, verification all in order. The auditor specifically called out the install quality.
Q. X4
Clean Room Operations, Boulder City
★★★★★
Phased ESD install during off-shifts so production never stopped. Each zone verified before reopening, no resistance drift between zones. Real coordination.
