Preventing Contamination and Static at the Floor Level
Skytech Ultrafab Cleanroom Antistatic Booties prevent particle contamination from footwear entering ISO-classified cleanrooms and ESD-controlled areas. Available in single-use non-woven and reusable ESD woven fabric constructions, they form the final barrier of a complete cleanroom garment system — controlling both microbiological and electrostatic contamination at the point of contact between personnel footwear and the cleanroom floor.
What Are Cleanroom Antistatic Booties?
Cleanroom Antistatic Booties (also called shoe covers or overshoes) are garments worn over standard footwear to prevent particles, fibres, and microorganisms from footwear surfaces and soles from contaminating cleanroom floors. ESD-antistatic versions additionally incorporate a conductive fibre path from the outer fabric through the sole to the floor, dissipating static charges with each step when the floor is ESD-conductive.
Cleanroom Antistatic Booties
Features and Benefits
-
ESD Conductive Sole:
Conductive carbon-fibre sole panel creates a ground path from the wearer through the bootie to the ESD floor, dissipating static charge with every step
-
Low Particle Generation:
Woven ESD fabric produces minimal fibre shed — maintains ISO Class 4–7 cleanroom classification at the floor level
-
Non-Slip Sole:
Textured PU or TPE non-slip sole prevents slipping on smooth cleanroom tile and epoxy-coated flooring
-
Elastic Opening:
Wide elastic opening allows quick donning over standard shoes, safety shoes, or other cleanroom footwear without tool assistance
-
Reusable & Washable:
Woven ESD versions withstand up to 100 industrial laundering cycles — significantly lower cost per use than single-use alternatives
-
Single-Use Option:
Non-woven polypropylene single-use booties for visitors, gowning areas, or applications where laundering is not available
