Any recommednations for a conductive floor coating for an industrial application? Can this be installed over another coating already in place? |

I have used Dex-O-Tex "Conductive Cheminert" flooring before, with good results. It was over new concrete, so I am not sure about the existing floor conditions you have, but the epoxy bonds tenaciously. http://www.dexotex.com/index.php?href=productdetail&id=24 |

There are also conductive (or static-dissipative) vinyl tiles and sheet goods. |

Your client may have very specific requirements that need to be met. Check the programatic requirements first. And... there are differences between the conductive and the static-dissipative types. If your client is very specific, make sure you follow their direction. If not, make sure you have other requirements covered (like grounding). |
