Goplasticpallets.com has added a new range of plastic containers featuring electrostatic discharge (ESD) properties to its automotive range.
Available in five different sizes, the new RL-KLT ESD boxes offer a storage and transport solution for electronic and automotive parts.
When two electrically charged objects come into contact with each other, static electricity is discharged. Goplasticpallets.com revealed its new containers are moulded from premium-grade polypropylene copolymer electrostatic discharge (PP ESD) and help to protect sensitive devices from static discharge during handling, storage and shipping.
The containers’ properties are said to control the surface resistance and volume resistivity. which helps to minimise the build-up of static and discharge that would otherwise be created by friction between the product and container.
Jim Hardisty, MD of Goplasticpallets.com, said, “The latest additions to our RL-KLT range are the perfect solution for transporting electronic parts and microchips. The plastic containers are strong and robust and have electrostatic discharge properties to protect electronic parts and sensitive devices on their journey through the supply chain.
“Currently, the automotive industry is experiencing challenging times with global shortages of semiconductor microchips. However, we are poised and ready to support the industry’s recovery with a range of safe and reliable containers to transport parts to car manufacturers.”
