Anti-Static Film
Fruth has the right antistatic film for your application. Antistatic film has increased surface resistivity, and typically a pink color identifier per industry standard. However, Fruth also offers antistatic film in clear and blue, when the industry standard pink film won’t cut it. We even offer antistatic bubble for those looking for extra packaging protection.
Ideal for electronic products and medical equipment the anti-static LDPE material creates a strong, durable and electrostatic protective barrier for sensitive devices and components.
Previously controlled by the MIL-PRF-18705 Type 2 standard, which has since been deprecated, our finished product meets the requirements detailed in the previous versions of the 81705 specification.
We are an ISO 9001:2015 certified manufacturer & distributor of standard & custom anti-static film.
Made in the USA.
Custom Anti-Static Bags for Electronics & ESD-Sensitive Packaging
Fruth anti-static bags protect printed circuit boards, semiconductors, and other ESD-sensitive components from electrostatic discharge during storage and transit. We manufacture pink anti-static polyethylene bags and static shielding bags to ANSI/ESD standards — custom sizes, print, and configurations available for B2B and OEM buyers.
Common applications include:
- Printed circuit boards (PCBs) — prevent ESD damage during warehouse storage and outbound shipping
- Semiconductors and integrated circuits — maintain device integrity through the supply chain
- Electronic assemblies and sub-assemblies — custom sizes for component kitting and distribution
- Medical electronics — ESD-safe packaging for sensitive diagnostic and monitoring devices
- Aerospace and defense components — ESD protection for avionics and control modules
Anti-Static Bag Types
Pink Anti-Static Poly Bags — Low-cost surface protection. Dissipates static charge on the bag surface; ideal for lower-sensitivity components and general electronics storage. Available in any size and gauge.
Static Shielding Bags — Metalized construction creates a Faraday cage effect, blocking external electrostatic fields from reaching contents. Required for components rated ESD Class 0 or Class 1 per ANSI/ESD S20.20.
Custom Anti-Static Bag Specifications
Every bag is built to your exact requirements:
- Size — custom width, length, and gusset
- Material — pink anti-static PE or metalized static shielding film
- Thickness (gauge) — matched to component weight and handling requirements
- Closure — open-top, lip and tape, zipper, or heat seal
- Print — unprinted or custom branded with ESD warning symbols and part numbers
- Compliance — ANSI/ESD S541 and ANSI/ESD S20.20 available on request
Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
-
What are autoclaWhat are anti-static bags used for?ve bags made from?
Anti-static bags protect electronics components, printed circuit boards, semiconductors, and other ESD-sensitive devices from electrostatic discharge during storage and shipping. They prevent static buildup that can damage or destroy sensitive electronic parts.
-
What is the difference between anti-static bags and static shielding bags?
Anti-static (pink poly) bags prevent static charge from building up on the bag surface but do not block external static fields. Static shielding bags use a metalized layer to create a Faraday cage effect, blocking external electrostatic fields from reaching sensitive components inside. Static shielding bags provide a higher level of ESD protection.
