Congrats StaticWorx, first EPD hits the spec stage

What StaticWorx just published

StaticWorx released a product‑specific Environmental Product Declaration in July 2025 for its Electrostatic Discharge vinyl tile platform, covering AmeriWorx conductive SVT styles as a family rather than a single SKU. The declaration sits under the Flooring Part B rule set and describes a homogeneous, 3 mm ESD tile built to drain charge in electronics and cleanroom spaces.

Who verified it and who did the LCA

The program operator is UL Solutions, and the listed LCA developer is Industrial Ecology Consultants. That pairing signals mainstream formatting project teams recognize and a methodology specifiers are used to seeing in submittals.

Why this matters in ESD projects now

In static‑sensitive environments the absence of a product‑specific, third‑party verified EPD forces modelers to plug in generic or averaged numbers. Those numbers are often pessimistic, which can nudge a brand out of a tight spec. With a declaration on the table, teams can reference product‑level impacts while evaluating other must‑haves like resistance ranges, body‑voltage performance, and maintenance fit for clean corridors.

Quick company backdrop

StaticWorx manufactures and supplies static‑control flooring for electronics manufacturing, labs, cleanrooms, data centers, and telecom spaces. Think resilient ESD vinyl tile for high traffic areas where electronics and uptime live side by side. The EPD also notes production in Sheboygan, Wisconsin, which matters for lead times and regional credits in some specs.

Competitive snapshot, based on current EPD coverage

Two names come up fast on ESD. Forbo’s Colorex line publishes EPDs that explicitly cover SD and EC conductive variants, so they are already in many binders for hospital labs and tech corridors. Nora systems documents ESD rubber through multiple EPDs, including ed ranges that address dissipative and conductive needs common in electronics manufacturing. Gerflor’s Mipolam collection includes SD or EL variants within EPD scope, which gives their resilient portfolio spec‑ready reach. StaticWorx joins that set with a product‑specific tile declaration, closing a visibility gap and making side‑by‑side comparisons much simpler.

Scope notes that help sales engineers

This first EPD is a family declaration for single‑layer ESD tile styles. That scope lets account teams cover a wide swath of the catalog without commissioning a separate document for each colorway. If the next chapter adds sheet or interlocking formats, call out those product families clearly so estimators can map coverage to plan sets in minutes.

Where to surface the win

We did not find the EPD posted on staticworx.com at the time of writing. It belongs on the AmeriWorx product page and on a central sustainability hub so reps can grab the PDF during submittal crunch. Visibility is half the battle, and it is definately worth the ten minutes to add a clear Download link.

The takeaway for spec and bid math

StaticWorx has moved from promises to proof. With a UL‑verified, product‑specific EPD in hand and ESD performance already central to the brand, the company can compete on both environmental numbers and technical fit. That is what entering the transparency arena looks like, and it resets conversations from why to when on projects that need verified carbon data and reliable static control.
