The StaticWorx Green Story
At StaticWorx we believe that a Green Story must be far more than simply a story. Doing our part to fight climate change and promote a healthier planet is not a choice. It’s an obligation. Not only for today, but for the brighter tomorrows we hope to leave to future generations.
Our commitment to sustainability extends beyond the recycling efforts of our paperless StaticWorx offices. It means focusing on sustainable, eco-smart products. Working with like-minded partners who share our core values. And making environmentally sound choices every day.

Sustainability Facts
AmeriWorx Conductive Vinyl Tile
Manufactured 100% in the U.S., our FloorScore-certified conductive vinyl tile uses recycled water in the manufacturing process; by repurposing scrap and rework materials, the production line produces almost no waste. AmeriWorx vinyl tile contains no asbestos, phthalates, or other harmful additives, and is VOC free. As routine maintenance requires only regular buffing, there are no corrosive strippers or toxic inhalants to worry about after the vinyl floor has been installed.

Bolt ESD Chairs
StaticWorx Bolt ESD chairs are created and manufactured with a focus on sustainability. Detachable seats and quick, easy replaceability of worn parts increases product life – resulting in a lifespan of up to 15- 20 years, depending upon the user – reducing the need for wasteful product replacement. 3D printing technology allows for the creation of small batch, fully functional prototypes, which reduces product tooling.
All material suppliers must agree to respect human rights and adhere to humane working standards, occupational safety and environmental protection. Material suppliers must agree to use energy, production materials and resources economically and to recycle and limit waste wherever possible without affecting the safety or quality of the material. And a return and refill system reduces packaging waste.
