Static electricity is extremely problematic in printing and commercial business processes. It attracts and holds dirt, dust, bacteria and other airborne contaminants. Static pulls articles out of register during manufacturing and printing processes, and it causes articles or components to stick together causing jamming of machines and equipment.

An even bigger problem with static is that it can ignite combustible dust, vapours, solvents, and other materials causing fire and or/explosion.

It can also cause electronic instrumentation to perform erratically or even fail. Poor quality, waste, rejects, unscheduled downtime, increased frequency of maintenance, loss of internal environmental control and increased costs are some of the resulting problems.

Anti-Static Tinsel normally available from stock.
