ESD vinyl tiles are not all alike. From performance to durability, versatility to cost—differences abound. Our point-by-point chart shows the differences between StaticWorx Solid Vinyl Tile (SVT) and Armstrong Static Dissipative Vinyl Composition Tile (SDT/VCT). Which would you trust in your critical environment?
StaticWorx | Armstrong | |
---|---|---|
Permanent Static Control | Conductive elements—embedded in StaticWorx Solid Vinyl Tile during manufacturing—provide permanent static protection. No waxes or additives are ever needed. | Armstrong’s static-dissipative tile gains its static-control properties from a topically applied ESD polish. The ESD polish provides short-term static control. To be sure it’s still in spec, the floor must be tested regularly after maintenance. |
Lifetime Warranty | StaticWorx guarantees ESD protection for as long as you have your floor. | Armstrong has a limited 5-year warranty. The warranty excludes ESD failure after the polish wears off. |
Performance & Versatility | StaticWorx meets all the requirements of ANSI/ESD S20.20. Our SVT meets ClassZero specs and is ideal for manufacturing, handling, labs, and R&D. | Without regular application of Armstrong ESD wax, Armstrong SDT does not meet ANSI S20.20 and should not be used in cleanrooms or ultra-sensitive applications. |
Maintenance & Aesthetics | StaticWorx’s Solid Vinyl Tile does not require wax or polish and can be dry-buffed to a high, hospital-like shine. | To maintain its static-control properties, Armstrong’s Vinyl Composition Tile requires three coats of polish after installation and must be waxed regularly. It cannot be dry-buffed. |
Durability & Flexibility | StaticWorx tiles are tough but flexible. Our SVT tile can withstand heavy loads and won’t crack under pressure. The load limit for StaticWorx tile is 2500 psi. | Armstrong’s tiles are brittle, with a load limit of only 75 psi. Because they easily crack, they cannot be used under machinery. |
Cost | Because it requires only dry-buffing, maintaining StaticWorx SVT is cost-effective and easy. | Armstrong Vinyl Composition Tile must be periodically waxed with a special ESD polish. Cost is $1.50 per foot/year. |
