In January 2015, Desco Industries, Inc., based in Chino, California, acquired the assets of the 3M Static Control business. This strategic acquisition positioned Desco Industries as the largest manufacturer of static control products in North America and led to the establishment of their newest brand, SCS. SCS is a vertically integrated manufacturer that oversees every aspect of the production process, from raw materials to finished products. This integration provides SCS with unparalleled control over the supply chain, product development, manufacturing, and quality management. At our facility in Sanford, NC, we produce the widest range of static control shielding and barrier bags available in the market. Additionally, our manufacturing capabilities enable us to produce specialty films on-site, further expanding our product offerings. By utilizing SCS products, electronic manufacturers can effectively manage their electrostatic discharge (ESD) programs. Our comprehensive range of equipment allows for the creation of an SCS Static Management Program, which includes test equipment and software to monitor real-time ESD control compliance. The Static Management Program (SMP) is specifically designed to enhance product quality, improve production yields, and increase overall reliability for our customers.
