Is there potential for static electricity when walking on Bear Board?
Yes, as with most other synthetic decking products, given the right conditions, Bear Board does come with the potential for the build-up of static electricity. We use static eliminators in our manufacturing process which dissipates the built-up charge in the extrusion process. However, just like with carpet, the potential remains for further build-up of static electricity. We have found that over time static electricity dissipates. Hosing down your deck with a combination of Simple Green cleaner and water will also help dissipate static electricity.
