Alkon Plastics

To protect electrostatic sensitive devices (ESDs) from the unwanted effects of ESD, two key measures must be taken and applied at all times.
ESDs must be handled exclusively in an ESD protected area (EPA) where electrostatic potential differences are minimised.
ESDs must be transported from one EPA to another only in shielding packages.

ESD Safe packaging is ideally suited for ESDs and because of its static dissipativeskin and buried conductive core, it is an ESD shielding material suitable for use in ESD protected areas (EPA).

ALKON packaging can withstand repeated use withoutloss of electrical properties. In the end, it can be recycled in the waste paper stream.




ESD SAFE CONDUCTIVE PAPER CORRUGATED PACKAGING
	APPLICATIONS uses a proven, versatile cardboard ESD shielding material developed especially for todays electronics industry. Products made of this material include Component boxes, PCB Transit boxes, IC tube boxes, In-plant handlers for PCBs and also for custom applications. IEC AND EN STANDARDS Standards play an important part in reducing uncertaintiesin the valuation, selection and use of ESD protection programs and products. Today in Europe, the operating standard is IEC/EN 61340-5-1:2001 Electrostaticpart 5-1 protection of electronic devices from electrostatic phenomena - general requirements and the accompanying IEC/EN 61340-5-2:1999 Electrostatic part 5-2 protection of electronic devices from electrostatic phenomena - user guide. meets or exceeds all IEC/EN 61340-5 requirements pertaining to packaging of ESDs	To protect electrostatic sensitive devices (ESDs) from the unwanted effects of ESD, two key measures must be taken and applied at all times.
