Conductive ESD flooring, Midlothian, Texas
Racks, dispatch desks and network positions in Midlothian carry a static requirement that comes from the equipment rather than from any production process. The record here shows data centers.
Midlothian, and what gets built here
Equipment capacity in Ellis County is what drives the requirement here, not how many people live nearby. Each entry names its source.
Google has filed to build a fifth data center building at its Midlothian campus
Google has filed to build a fifth data center building at its Midlothian campus: a 288,000 sq ft facility backed by an $880 million investment, construction beginning January 2026 and targeted for completion February 2027.
Uptime is the constraint
Two things change on a Midlothian job with live racks in the room. The band is often set higher for the safety of anyone working near energized gear, and the handover window becomes the plan.
The document behind a Midlothian job
ANSI/ESD STM97.1-2025 is the one worth reading first for work like this. System resistance measurement of a person, their footwear and the floor as one circuit. This is the test behind the S20.20 ceiling.
A 2025 edition, replacing 2015
The current edition is 2025 and it supersedes the 2015 one. If your program document cites the 2015 edition it is not wrong, it is simply on an older revision, and it is worth checking what changed before your next audit.
Questions from Midlothian
Does a Midlothian data hall need conductive or dissipative?
Your program document decides, and rooms with energized equipment often sit higher rather than lower. FAA-STD-019 specifies 1.0 x 106 to 1.0 x 109 ohms in rooms with live equipment for personnel safety[11], which is above a typical manufacturing floor.
What do you need from us to price a Midlothian job?
Square footage, what is on the slab now, the resistance band your specification calls for, and the hours the space can be handed over. Four answers and we can price the actual room instead of quoting a range.
Is Midlothian inside your normal service area?
Yes. Ellis County is covered on the regular Texas schedule, so a job here does not carry a travel premium the way a one off out of state trip would.

Crews working Midlothian cover Richardson, Plano, Garland, McKinney on the same run, so a job in Ellis County rarely stands on its own.
