Conveyor belts should always be properly grounded to ensure a continuous conductive path to the earth. Effective grounding is essential for dissipating static electricity that can accumulate during operation, especially in environments where flammable materials, powders, or sensitive electronic components are being transported.
Belts containing nega-stat® P190 provide a significant safety advantage by actively preventing electrostatic buildup on both the belt itself and the materials being conveyed. This is particularly critical when the transported product exits the conveyor, as uncontrolled static discharge at this stage can pose serious risks, including ignition of flammable substances, damage to electronic components, or contamination of sensitive materials.
Even in cases where full local grounding of the conveyor belt is not consistently maintained, the nega-stat® P190 core conducting filament yarn embedded within the belt structure ensure a controlled dissipation of static charges. By integrating this advanced technology, conveyor systems can operate more safely and reliably, reducing the risk of electrostatic hazards in industrial settings.
Many safety standards for protective clothing, flooring, and other equipment are built upon a system of interconnected safety guidelines. This is the theory …
However, the reality of the workplace often diverges significantly, leading to safety gaps that existing standards cannot address. It is this very discrepancy that led to the development of nega-stat® P190. This product is designed for situations where the ideal conditions of a laboratory environment contrast sharply with the realities of the workplace. In these real-world scenarios, practical safety takes precedence over theoretical assumptions, helping to bridge genuine safety gaps.
nega-stat® is the only antistatic yarn globally that minimizes the risk of static charge in both earthed and unearthed conditions to such an extent that no damage can occur.
Static discharge can damage electronics. nega-stat® P190 minimizes static and ensures safety, even without grounding.
70% of industrial powders can cause dust explosions. nega-stat® dissipates static safely through corona discharge, removing the need for grounding.
Many safety standards ignore real industry conditions. nega-stat® ensures safety when grounding isn’t guaranteed.
nega-stat® stands for reliable, high-performance anti-static protection, meeting the most stringent international standards. Fabrics and garments containing nega-stat® comply with key industry norms such as ESD EN 61340, EN 1149-5, GOST R EN 1149-5, and JIS 1094, and are OEKO-TEX® STANDARD 100 certified for safety and environmental responsibility.
Tested for durability and effectiveness, nega-stat® ensures consistent static dissipation, making it the trusted choice for industries where safety, compliance, and performance are essential.

nega-stat® is available in various counts to meet different application requirements. The nega-stat® P210 series includes 28 dtex f 3, 56 dtex f 6, and 112 dtex f 24, while nega-stat® P190 is available in 39 dtex f 6, 78 dtex f 12, and 156 dtex f 24. The nega-stat® DP 40 variant comes in 20 dtex f 4. Additionally, white and dyeable nega-stat® options are offered in 28 dtex f 3 and 28 dtex f 4.
nega-stat® contains a carbon conducting core which is embedded into a PES sheath.
No. Usually any fabric/garment containing an antistatic component has to be fully grounded at any time. In areas where a full grounding will be not possible or not practicable fabrics and garments containing the core conductor nega-stat® P190 will provide full antistatic protection.
Depending on the final application nega-stat® is introduced into the fabric in defined grids or stripes.
Fabrics and garments containing nega-stat® will perform to all international standards and relevant antistatic norms such as EN 61340, EN 1149/5 and JIS 1094.
Under full grounding conditions fabrics containing nega-stat® P190 operate by 2 main mechanisms – induction and conduction.
Where full grounding is not possible the unique trilobal core induces a corona discharge.
nega-stat® is available in a recycled version where the conducting carbon core is embedded into a recycled PES sheath.
Yes. Aside the black non dyeable qualities nega-stat® P190, P210 and DP40, we are in the position to provide a range of white disperse dyeable as well as white cationic dyeable solutions.
Fabrics containing nega-stat® can be mechanically recycled or if the base material is PES and contains nega-stat® such a material can be remelted.
Yes. Fabrics and garments containing nega-stat® P190 or P210 can be fully recycled.
nega-stat® antistatic fibers are used across various industries to enhance safety and prevent electrostatic discharge. In workwear, they provide protection in gas and oil, automotive, firefighting, police, and military sectors. Industrial applications include conveyor belts, filtration, ropes, harnesses, seating, hoses, and copier brushes.
In clean areas such as cleanrooms, car bodyshops, and battery cell production, nega-stat® helps maintain product integrity. It is also used in floor coverings, medical garments, and health applications, including asthma protection, pain relief, and sports performance. With its versatility, nega-stat® improves safety, hygiene, and comfort across multiple fields.
nega-stat® P190 and P210 contain a unique trilobal carbon conducting core embedded into a PES sheath.
The outer PES sheath of nega-stat® provides exceptional durability to wear, washing, sterilization and chemical attack.
