Anti-Stat refers to materials or coatings that prevent the buildup of static electricity. In the packaging industry, anti-stat (anti-static) additives or treatments are applied to materials such as plastic films, bubble wrap, or containers to reduce static charge accumulation. This is particularly important for packaging sensitive electronic components or materials that could be damaged or disrupted by static electricity.
 
Anti-stat packaging protects items from electrostatic discharge (ESD), which can be harmful to electrical devices or flammable materials. Anti-static packaging is commonly used in industries like electronics, pharmaceuticals, and chemicals to maintain product safety during transport and handling. PPS is familiar with a variety of packaging materials including anti-stat packaging materials for various industries such as healthcare, electronic kitting, and others.
