The ESD Super Bowl

Very few flooring companies would refer to the EOS/ESD Symposium as the Super Bowl besides SelecTech. There’s good reason for that. Very few, actually less, have our level of ESD expertise.

Why it matters

When you’re looking for ESD flooring—or are unsure if you need it—you want expert advice, right? It may be blowing our own horn, but being a featured at the EOS/ESD Symposium for a talk on ESD flooring in healthcare is about as expert as you can get.

That’s what this Super Bowl's Tom, SelecTech’s Tom Ricciardelli, will be doing at the 46^th Annual EOS/ESD Symposium, September 14-19 in Reno, Nevada. His Electrostatic Discharge (ESD) Control in Healthcare presentation on Monday, September 16 will summarize the ESDA flooring committee's guidelines for static control in a healthcare setting.
