Antistatic Homogeneous Vinyl Tile & Sheeting
Gerflor antistatic and conductive homogeneous vinyl flooring is designed for environments where electrostatic control is an important part of the flooring specification.
PerSquare (Pty) Ltd supplies Gerflor Mipolam EL7 and EL5 flooring across Johannesburg, Cape Town, Durban and throughout South Africa, with solutions available in both tile and sheet formats for specialised commercial and technical environments.
What Is Antistatic & Conductive Vinyl Flooring?
Antistatic and conductive vinyl flooring is designed to help control electrostatic charges in environments where static electricity can affect sensitive equipment, processes or occupants.
Gerflor’s Mipolam EL flooring combines homogeneous vinyl construction with specific electrical resistance properties for specialised environments such as healthcare facilities, laboratories, cleanrooms and technical areas.
The range includes dissipative EL7 flooring and conductive EL5 flooring, allowing the flooring specification to be matched to the required level of electrostatic control.
Available in tile and sheet formats, the appropriate solution should be selected according to the application, electrical performance requirements and overall project specification.

Compare Antistatic Flooring by Performance
The correct antistatic flooring specification depends on the level of electrostatic control required within the environment. PerSquare can assist with comparing Gerflor EL7 and EL5 solutions against the electrical, installation and performance requirements of your project.
Electrical Resistance
Electrical resistance is a key consideration when specifying antistatic flooring. The required resistance range determines whether a static dissipative or conductive flooring solution is appropriate.
Dissipative or Conductive
Gerflor EL7 provides a static dissipative flooring solution, while EL5 is designed for applications requiring conductive flooring and a higher level of electrostatic control.
Installation System
Antistatic and conductive flooring requires the correct installation system to achieve the intended electrical performance, including appropriate adhesives, earthing arrangements and installation detailing.
Format & Application
Consider whether tile or sheet flooring is required, together with the intended environment, traffic levels and technical requirements of the project when selecting the appropriate solution.
Technical Support From Subfloor to Final Specification
The performance of antistatic and conductive flooring depends on both the selected product and the complete flooring system. Subfloor condition, moisture, preparation, adhesive selection, earthing requirements and installation detailing all contribute to achieving the required performance.
PerSquare provides technical support throughout the specification process, helping project teams select the appropriate Gerflor EL7 dissipative or EL5 conductive flooring solution and understand the preparation and installation requirements for the application.
