Anti-static storage boxes are used for safely transporting or storing electronic devices that are prone to damage caused by electrostatic discharge (ESD) – the flow of electricity between two electrically charged objects. Anti-static boxes are primarily used for items such as PCBs or for other semiconductor devices and electronic component handling applications.

RS offer a selection of high-quality conductive or anti-static boxes for all of your workshop, laboratory and cleanroom requirements. Our range is supplied from industry-leading brands including Raaco, Sjm Eurostat and of course RS PRO.

Features and benefits of anti-static storage bins and boxes

• Usually made from polypropylene – a conductive material that provides permanent electrostatic discharge and static protection.
• Sometimes lined with anti-static foam inserts for extra electrical device protection.
• Helps to provide a convenient and cost-effective way of storing sensitive parts.

What are the different types of anti-static box?

There's a range of differently sized and designed containers to choose from, depending on your needs. There is open box, space-saving styles that can be used for stacking for increased flexibility. They can be easily fitted to a cabinet or a wall panel or rack can come with index cards for extra organisation. Alternatively, they can be placed on shelving for easy access. For the safe transit of your electronics parts, opt for closed protective cases with handles. You can also add case divider trays for separating components.
