There are more and more new and advanced materials for flooring on the market today. Testing for verification and certification before a floor is purchased is critical due to off-shore 'copycats' and/or reliance upon Supplier Tech Data Sheets. | FAA Control Towers require ESD Floor Certification before the contractor is paid. | Headend Operations require ESD Floor Certification to protect ultrasensitive components |
