Semi-tubular films and flat films are antistatic packaging films made of dissipative material with a surface resistance of < 1 × 10¹⁰ Ω. They enable controlled dissipation of electrostatic charges and are used to protect sensitive electronic components from electrostatic discharge (ESD) during storage and transportation within electrostatically protected areas (EPA).
The films are flexible, adaptable to different product sizes and can be securely sealed by welding. They are dissipative, pink-colored, amine-free and recyclable. Both types of film meet the requirements of the DIN EN 61340-5-1 standard.
Semi-tubular films and flat films differ in terms of their shape:
- Semi-tubular films are folded on one side and enable wraparound packaging by welding.
- Flat films are flat and are suitable for flat covers or cuttings.
