Dycem’s contamination control flooring stops dust and particles where most of them enter a data center: on shoes, cart wheels, and equipment moving in from outside. Its naturally tacky, reusable polymer surface captures up to 99.9% of shoe- and wheel-borne contamination and reduces airborne particles by up to 75%. That keeps dust and fibers from building up in racks, cooling systems, and air handlers. Dycem offers loose-laid floating mats for entryways and transition zones, along with inlaid and retrofit 60 cm × 60 cm access tiles that fit into raised-floor systems while leaving cabling accessible.

Because the material is static-dissipative (10⁸ ohms), it also lowers the risk of electrostatic discharge damaging sensitive hardware. Unlike disposable peel-off tacky mats, Dycem is cleaned and reused rather than thrown away daily, which cuts waste without weakening protection. Controlling contamination at floor level helps operators meet the ISO 14644-1 Class 8 cleanliness levels that NVIDIA and other hardware makers specify for installing GPUs and other sensitive computing equipment, and it supports uptime as AI hardware grows more sensitive.
