1. Context: Why Even Trash Bins Need ESD Protection
In every Electrostatic Protected Area (EPA), manufacturers pay attention to tables, chairs, flooring, and packaging—but often overlook one simple item: the waste bin.
A regular plastic trash bin, when rubbed or used, generates static charges that can easily exceed hundreds of volts. For sensitive devices like PCBA, ICs, and optical modules, a single unnoticed discharge could cause irreversible failures.
The solution? ESD Trash Bins—purpose-built to safely collect waste in controlled environments without becoming an unexpected static generator.
�� 2. Industry Use Cases: Who Needs ESD Trash Bins?
· Semiconductors & Microelectronics → Prevent damage to wafers, IC chips, and optical devices.
· Consumer Electronics Assembly → Safe disposal of ESD bags, PCB scraps, and protective films.
· Medical & Laboratory Environments → Avoid contamination from static-sensitive diagnostic materials.
· EPA Cleanrooms & SMT Lines → Ensure end-to-end compliance with ANSI/ESD S20.20 standards.
⚙️ 3. Product Features & Advantages
Our anti-static trash bins are engineered for permanent ESD protection and durability:
1. Surface Resistance: 10⁴ – 10⁹ Ω
2. Static Decay Time: < 1.0s (from ±1000V to ±100V)
3. Triboelectric Voltage: < 100V
4. Material: Permanent anti-static PP (not coating, no decay)
5. Shape: Square, with optional lid or open-top design
6. Color: Black
7. Capacity Options: 15L / 20L / 30L / 35L / 40L / 45L / 50L / 60L / 70L / 80L / 90L / 100L / 120L / 240L
✅ Why It Matters?
· Protects EPA integrity: No weak link in static control.

�� 5. Why Your Facility Needs ESD Trash Bins
Many companies fail ESD audits not because of advanced systems—but because of overlooked accessories like bins. By switching to certified ESD trash bins, you:
· Reduce ESD risk: No more hidden discharges from waste handling.
· Improve audit readiness: Demonstrate complete ESD protection across EPA.
· Enhance safety & workflow: Durable PP construction, ergonomic design, and stackable capacities.
�� 6. Final Thought: Upgrade Your EPA with the Details That Matter
ESD management is not just about workstations and packaging. Every detail, down to how you dispose of waste, affects component safety. With YUFA Polymer’s anti-static trash bins, your EPA compliance becomes seamless—and your sensitive products remain protected.
