Gerflor GTI EL5 Connect Interlocking Tiles deliver a durable, sustainable, and efficient flooring solution for critical environments where ESD control, hygiene, and rapid installation are essential. Engineered specifically for renovation projects, electronics manufacturing, and ESD-sensitive areas, these conductive interlocking tiles combine permanent electrostatic discharge protection with a tool-free, adhesive-free installation system that minimizes facility downtime.
Advanced ESD Protection
GTI EL5 Connect tiles offer permanent electroconductive properties, ensuring consistent ESD control throughout the lifespan of the floor. The construction integrates carbon-encapsulated granules and a conductive backing that maintain stable conductive performance under continuous use. This engineered design protects sensitive electronic components, supports ANSI/ESD S20.20 compliance, and enhances safety in environments where electrostatic discharge events can cause equipment damage or production loss.
Robust Construction and Easy Installation
With a total thickness of 6.0 mm and a 2.0 mm wear layer, GTI EL5 Connect tiles are built to handle heavy traffic, equipment loads, and the dynamic demands of active production environments. The double reinforced fiberglass grid enhances dimensional stability, prevents tile movement, and supports long-term performance. The interlocking design enables fully adhesive-free installation, making these tiles ideal for renovation projects, temporary setups, and facilities where minimizing downtime is a priority.
Evercare™ Surface Treatment
The patented Evercare™ conductive surface treatment delivers exceptional resistance to stains and chemicals, including disinfectants commonly used in decontamination protocols. This treatment eliminates the need for waxing, simplifies daily maintenance routines, and reduces long-term operating costs across the lifespan of the floor.
Environmental Sustainability
GTI EL5 Connect tiles are engineered with sustainability in mind, containing 80% recycled content and offering 100% recyclability at end of life. They are FloorScore® certified, supporting healthier indoor air quality with ultra-low VOC emissions of less than 10 µg/m³ after 28 days, contributing to LEED and other green building certification programs.
Design Versatility
Available in five colors including Light Grey, Black, Grey, Beige, and Blue, GTI EL5 Connect tiles offer design flexibility to suit a range of facility aesthetics. The 25 in x 25 in (635 mm x 635 mm) square format with a contemporary matte finish provides a modern, professional appearance suitable for cleanrooms, data centers, electronics manufacturing floors, and laboratory environments.
