This Sitmatic Alpha™ ESD & Cleanroom model is available in grade 8 X-Static Vinyl with Cleanroom technology (see below for details). Sitmatic, originally an Italian-based furniture manufacturer, specializing in drafting stools, has become an industry leader in proper ergonomic design. They design and manufacture all their components in California, producing incredibly well-engineered Italian-built quality seating. All of the chairs have steel frames and components that allow them to boast "no weight limits", meaning that they support any user. This, along with their lifetime component warranty, speaks to the quality of these mid-back ergonomic chairs.

Cleanroom & ESD Specifications
The primary concern in most cleanrooms is airborne particulates. Size of particulates is measured in microns (one micron equals 1/1000 millimeter). Airborne particulates of 5 microns or larger are typically used for measurement of air purity in cleanrooms. Alpha Cleanroom Seating has seat and backrest cushions upholstered and sealed with flowable silicon sealant for an air-tight seam. HEPA (High Efficiency Particulate Air) filters are installed over the ventilation exit areas, scrubbing the air that is forced out of the cushions. These filters are 99.97% efficient at 0.3 microns. With this filtration, Sitmatic Alpha chairs and stools meet and exceed the standards for Class 1 Cleanrooms.
In many cleanrooms and production environments, the elimination of static electricity is a critical issue. Production yields and equipment integrity are at risk if static electricity is present. Under certain circumstances, the human body can store up to 35,000 volts of low amperage static electricity. If an individual with this static load were to touch a microchip or sensitive piece of testing equipment, the item would be destroyed by the electrostatic discharge. Alpha ESD (Electrostatic Dissipative) Seating is upholstered in special fabric or vinyl that is infused with conductive materials. Copper tape is installed in the backrest and seat to transmit electrical current from the cushions to the steel components. Current then passes through the pneumatic piston, into the legs of the five-star base, through the conductive casters, and out onto the floor.
