You are probably going to have to ask your plastic molder to add a static suppressant to the plastic mix. Usually this is a graphite or other conductive material which has minimal effect on the plastic properties, except to give it high-resistance electrical conductivity, usually in the megohm range. Static charges dissipate, or at least equalize, around the object. You still should have some means of grounding (earthing) the device, although in your application I can't see any easy way to do that.
