Pillars of Success
Outstanding Customer Service
At StaticWorx, our customers are our priority. From day one, we have strived to not only meet but to exceed expectations, by providing prompt, responsive, attentive service. At StaticWorx, we provide the same service whether you’re calling to explore your options, placing an order, or informing us of a developing problem. As a client once put it:
“You get to know a person when you see how they stay with you in solving problems on the job. [StaticWorx] did just that when we were on a large project where some problems developed. [They] worked the problems with us and stayed to the end.”
“You get to know a person when you see how they stay with you in solving problems on the job. [StaticWorx] did just that when we were on a large project where some problems developed. [They] worked the problems with us and stayed to the end.”
This is feedback we value and strive for. To us, “staying to the end” is a job well done.
Education, a Fundamental Part of Who We Are
Founded in 2007, we quickly became known for our innovation as well as our focus on education and efforts to promote transparency within the static-control industry. As industry leaders, we recognize the responsibility to serve, enlighten and educate clients as well as the community at large. In the last two years alone, we’ve provided CEU workshops to over 500 architects and designers. We’ve created a comprehensive, educationally-driven website, with 40 technical articles and over 100 technical drawings, complemented by an extensive video library, with over 1.7 million views and almost 2200 YouTube subscribers.
Innovation and Reliability
We never stop exploring and developing new products and methods to serve our industry better. Through meticulous research, development and testing, we bring the most reliable ESD flooring products to the market, ensuring that our solutions meet all applicable ESD standards, and are the highest quality ESD products available today.
Innovation is in our DNA.
Dave Long
Founder, CEO StaticWorx
In 2009, while other companies were turning to the Pacific Rim to supply lower-cost products, we bet instead on domestically-produced ESD flooring. We believed then, and still believe today, that products manufactured in the U.S. are among the highest quality, most reliable in the world, with top-notch service and best value-ratio on the market.
During the pandemic, as supply chains fell apart, maintaining control of our supply chain enabled us to continue to produce and deliver product. Rather than reducing stock like many companies, we increased our inventory. A strategy based on domestically-produced flooring coupled with our extensive inventory enabled us to service our customers in a time of need.
