January 8, 2021 | SelecTechEstimated reading time: 1 minute
StaticStop, a division of SelecTech, Inc., and leader in the manufacture of innovative ESD flooring products that save time and money, has announced that 2020 was a banner year for the company with 10% growth.
“2020 certainly offered many challenges,” commented Tom Ricciardelli, President of SelecTech. “I’m proud to say despite COVID, travel restrictions and all the other curveballs the year threw at us, we were able to increase sales 10%. By working hand in hand with our sales partners, we developed new content, offered learning courses, and supported their efforts with blog and email campaigns, helping us sell more flooring.”
StaticStop is a division of SelecTech, Inc., which was founded in 1993 with the mission of creating valuable products from scrap plastics. The company is a leader in the manufacture of flooring products from recycled materials and uses one million pounds of recycled materials annually. Their FreeStyle ESD and SelecTile ESD products are made with recycled content and are 100 percent recyclable. Both FreeStyle ESD and SelecTile ESD are installed without adhesives making them some of the “greenest” and most cost-effective flooring products available.
FreeStyle ESD™ is the first and only decorative flooring system that is “conductive, connected and grounded”™. This unique and innovative flooring solution is easy to install without the need for messy adhesives, copper foil, underlayments or padding. This simplified and convenient installation process translates into less down time for your facility, further translating into reduced costs and an improved bottom line. Additionally, these floor tiles DO NOT require any conductive rejuvenators, wax, or expensive maintenance solutions.
SelecTile ESD™ flooring is a free-floating surface with a unique interlocking tab system. These static-control flooring products install quickly and easily without the need for adhesives, copper strips, underlayments or padding. StaticStops’s static-control systems were uniquely engineered to meet the demanding needs of industrial environments that require the highest level of electrostatic discharge protection, and still withstand industrial environments, including fork truck traffic. StaticStop offers a truly robust system that is completely scalable to any specification or intricate layout.
