Bekaert Bekinox ® stainless steel fibres and yarns are used to safely discharge static electricity which can lead to explosions or damage electronic equipment.
If you rely on anti-static textiles made from Bekaert Bekinox® fibres, filaments and yarns, you prevent the build-up of static electricity and electrostatic discharges.
1.a Risk management in flammable and explosive atmospheres
In the petrochemical and gas industry, workers are often exposed to explosive and flammable atmospheres. Due to their excellent conductivity, our fibres and yarns take away the ignition source by preventing build up of static electricity.
Personal protective clothing made with Bekaert Bekinox® yarns easily fulfill the international safety norms and are the preferred solution in the market due to their outstanding wash resistance.
1.b Enhanced safety
Bekaert Bekinox® electro-conductive fibres and yarns in dust removal filters prevent explosions by avoiding electrostatic discharges.
1.c Reliable under extreme conditions
Bekaert Bekinox® conductive yarns in big bags help to avoid explosions by preventing spark discharges.
1.d Extra comfort and seamless performance
Bekaert Bekinox® stainless steel fibres in floor coverings provide comfort and protect electronic apparatus against defects caused by electrostatic discharge.
1.e Ongoing effectiveness
Anti-static brushes made of Bekaert Bekinox® continuous filament yarns are mounted in fax machines, copiers, high-speed printers. They prevent malfunctioning due to static electricity.
