How to Properly Store ESD-Sensitive Components

May 13, 2026

Proper storage of ESD-sensitive components is critical to prevent latent damage. Follow these best practices:

Use ESD-Safe Containers

Always store components in conductive or static-dissipative containers. AcePlas offers a full range of ESD tote boxes, component trays, and PCB racks.

Control Humidity

Maintain relative humidity between 30-70% in storage areas. Low humidity increases static buildup risk.

Ground All Surfaces

Shelving and work surfaces must be properly grounded with a resistance to ground of less than 1 x 10^9 Ω.
