Material Handling in Cleanrooms: Kitting, Trays & Containers for Proper Storage

Proper material handling in cleanrooms goes beyond gowning and wipe selection — it includes how components, assemblies, and consumables are moved, staged, and stored within the controlled environment. The wrong container or handling method can introduce particles, static charge, or contamination that undermines your entire ISO classification effort.

Kitting Trays for ESD-Safe Component Handling

ESD-safe kitting trays keep sensitive components organized and protected during assembly and staging:

• Corstat 13040 ESD-Safe Kitting Tray — 14 x 10 x 1-3/4 in, 9 cavities
• Corstat 13050 ESD-Safe Kitting Tray — 14 x 10 x 1-3/4 in, 12 cavities

Bin Boxes for In-Process Storage

Open and in-line bin boxes keep components accessible and organized at the workstation without compromising ESD protection:

• Protektive Pak 37102 Open Bin Box — 12 x 2 x 4-1/2 in
• Protektive Pak 37140 In-Line Reel Bin Box — 14 x 2-1/4 x 7 in

ESD Workstation & Transport Equipment

Maintaining ESD protection during transport is as important as at the workstation:

• ESD workbench mats — grounded work surfaces for assembly and inspection
• ESD carts — static-safe transport between workstations
• ESD kitting trays — full selection for component staging
