Rohde & Schwarz – ESD Epoxy Flooring Upgrade

Multiblast Flooring was contracted to install an advanced ESD-compliant antistatic epoxy flooring system at the Rohde & Schwarz facility in Geebung, Brisbane. The project required a highly durable, electrostatic dissipative solution to protect sensitive electronic equipment while delivering a functional and slip-resistant surface.

Project Details

Scope of Works

The project scope included surface preparation, repairs, and application of a multi-layered epoxy ESD system:

  1. Mechanical diamond grinding to CSP2 profile.
  2. Crack repairs and patching using high-strength epoxy fillers.
  3. Application of Enviroset ESD primer.
  4. Installation of earthing points at 100 m² intervals.
  5. Two coats of Enviroset 4116 ESD in mid-grey with silicon carbide additive for slip resistance.

Challenges & Outcomes

The key challenge was ensuring IEC 61340-5-1 compliance for electrostatic discharge protection while maintaining high surface strength and safety underfoot. Multiblast achieved this through strict preparation protocols and correct earthing placement. The finished floor delivered excellent light reflectivity, durability, and reliable ESD performance for sensitive equipment environments.
