Sydney office cleaning by A Clean City can provide anti-static treatment for all your carpets. In today's high-tech environment with a strong emphasis on OH&S responsibilities this treatment is recommended for all offices and warehouses. Our anti-static treatments contain no solvents or cationic surfactants which cause sticky residues that pick up soil and attract dust. Our anti-static treatment is bio-degradable.
Static is created by friction between carpet fibres and moving objects, such as shoes or electrical field currents from electronic equipment such as computers. It is often most prevalent on nylon floors. Air conditioning and low humidity especially within offices and warehouses create ideal conditions for the build-up of static.
While static shocks are not dangerous to your staff, usually causing only a mild discomfort, they do present a danger to sensitive office equipment, which can actually be damaged by a static shock. (However, hypochondriacs may use this as a reason to take a day off work)
Our anti-static treatment prevents the build-up of static and drastically reduces the chances of your staff or your equipment receiving a shock.
The treatment lasts for between six and nine months, though in some extreme circumstances it may need to be repeated earlier, and definitely needs to be repeated after cleaning the carpet.
The treatment is quick and is usually done out of office hours. The carpet should be dry and the office able to be used within an hour or so of the treatment being completed.
There are no harmful side effects of anti-static treatments. (However, it is known that after the treatment, squealing by shocked staff is greatly reduced.)
