The present invention relates to a static dissipative textile (100) having an electrically conductive surface achieved by coating the textile with an electrically conductive coating (200) in a variety of patterns (400). The electrically conductive coating (200) is comprised of a conducting agent and a binding agent, and optionally a dispersing agent and/or a thickening agent. The static dissipative textile (100) generally comprises a fabric (300), which may be screen printed or otherwise coated with a conductive coating (200). The economically produced fabric (300) exhibits relatively permanent static dissipation properties and conducts electric charge at virtually any humidity, while the conductive coating (200) does not detrimentally affect the overall appearance or tactile properties of the fabric (300).
