Testing & Validation
How ESD surface control systems are measured, verified, and validated in real environments.
Testing and validation are critical to ensuring that ESD control measures perform as intended—not just when new, but throughout their service life. This hub explains common test methods, what results really mean, and how environmental and durability factors influence long-term performance.
