Anti static packaging is used for storing and shipping non sensitive electrical components that will be introduced into a static controlled environment.
Anti-static materials should not be used to prevent electrical discharge. This packaging does not hold or generate a charge therefore it prevents static electricity from building up which could then potentially discharge and in turn would damage the product. Anti static packaging would work well for products that are not sensitive to static but will be shipped to or stored in a static controlled area.
Static shielding materials prevent the build up of static electricity as well as electrostatic discharge outside and inside the multilayered bag. For highly sensitive components bags are often layered. Special consideration must be taken for sharp edges and corners which could puncture the packaging material.
