ESD Floor Plan WILMINGTON, MASSACHUSETTS—March 10, 2003—Julie Industries, Inc., a leading supplier of static control flooring products, now offers a total ESD flooring plan. The expansion of Julie’s StaticSmart™ flooring division was initiated with their takeover of the UTP carpet and polymer lines. Before the acquisition, Julie supplied UTP with static control products and electronics test equipment. A smooth transition between operations enabled Julie to maintain all of UTP’s former supply lines. According to Dave Long, Julie’s vice president of New Business Development, Julie’s StaticSmart™ carpet and epoxy floors are updated versions of the same products sold by the now-defunct UTP. “We hired all of the key people from the UTP carpet group. Engineering management, customer service, quality control, order fulfillment, logistics—the key players are all with Julie now, helping us to better serve you.” Since 1973, Julie has been providing static control solutions, including ESD flooring and mats, as well as the peripheral products that comprise a total ESD program. “We understand the importance of integrating the ESD floor into the workplace,” Long says. “When we recommend a floor, we take into consideration your personnel and grounding devices and the rest of the environment. We look at each part of the job and give best-solution advice based on your company’s individual needs, as well as on the specifics of your application, and we help you integrate the ESD floor into the rest of your program.” In keeping with their cooperative, education-oriented approach, Julie educates architects and engineers about ESD specifications. Julie also provides online assistance in understanding the performance parameters of conductive, dissipative and antistatic floors and ESD carpet. Julie also assists customers with the specifics of selecting and installing the various conductive adhesives. In addition to its own manufacturing operation, Julie has negotiated strategic supply agreements with manufacturers and raw materials suppliers around the world to produce best of class ESD flooring products at highly competitive price points. These long-term agreements eliminate performance and aesthetic problems such as dye lot variation, color matching, specification consistency and compliance with ESD standards, such as ANSI S20-20. Julie’s full line of static control flooring also includes an outstanding ESD rubber, and the best looking and most competitively priced conductive vinyl tile on the market today.

For Immediate Release ESD Flooring, Inc. Adds UTP Assets (Wilmington, Massachusetts) - ESD Flooring Inc., located in Wilmington, MA, today announced the addition of ESD carpet products to its StaticSmart™ line of ESD flooring products by completing a liquidation purchase of assets previously owned and marketed by United Technical Products (UTP) of Norwood, Massachusetts. Julie's VP of New Business Development, Dave Long, announced that the inventory purchase should alleviate the possibility of supply interruption to most of UTP's former customers. Dave stated that "we have made a significant investment in previously manufactured materials, adhesive and raw materials while maintaining the former company's Dalton, Georgia distribution center. Julie has already arranged for the production of new goods to replenish inventory levels. Our goal is to minimize the inconvenience caused by the loss of a key supplier to America's technology leaders." Several former key employees from the liquidated company have also joined Julie. Chris Hughes, a 17-year veteran of UTP will become the StaticSmart flooring customer service manager for the Massachusetts-based company. To ensure the continued high quality of these products, Julie has also hired Michael Dillard, UTP's former VP of technical development. Mike will be responsible for maintaining supply chains and developing new products under the StaticSmart label. To further minimize service disruption, the former company's toll free number (1-800-225-6052) and fax line will now ring at Julie's corporate offices. ESD Flooring develops and implements total environmental solutions for their clients' facilities and personnel, addressing their specific static control requirements in the most cost-effective manner possible with products like ESD carpet, rubber and polymeric flooring, personnel grounding devices and ergonomically correct ESD chairs and furniture.
