ESD Packing & Shipping

ESD Packing & Shipping

Basic Rules to prevent uncontrolled discharges need to be included in your Static Management Program or Procedure !  ESD-Packaging – Anti-Static-Packaging. Essentially there are three types or categories of ESD bags: antistatic bags, dissipative bags and metallized bags. Obviously, ESD sensitive components will be moved. This will be and should be possible both in and outside the EPAs. The most important thing in this respect is to make good use of the necessary protective packaging.

Depending on the application and requirements, there are basically four types of ESD packaging which can be distinguished:

1. Black carbonaceous packaging

2. Pink poly packaging

3. Metalic shielding bags

4. Cardboard box with enclosed conductive layer
