Anti-slip Carpet Pattern Wear-resistant PVC Bus Flooring Rolls

Short Description:

Using carpet-textured corundum flooring on buses is a practical and innovative option, particularly suitable for high-traffic public transportation that requires both slip resistance, wear resistance, and easy cleaning. The following are its advantages, precautions, and implementation recommendations:
I. Advantages
1. Excellent Anti-Slip Performance
- The rough texture of the corundum surface significantly increases friction, effectively preventing slips even in rainy days or when passengers’ shoes are wet, reducing the risk of falls.
- The carpet-textured design further increases tactile resistance, making it suitable for the frequent stops and starts of buses.
2. Superior Wear Resistance and Long Life
- The corundum (silicon carbide or aluminum oxide) is extremely hard and can withstand constant foot traffic, luggage dragging, and wheel friction, reducing floor wear and requiring fewer replacements.
3. Fire Retardant
- Corundum is an inorganic material that meets the fire-resistant material requirements for buses (such as GB 8624), eliminating the flammability hazards associated with carpet-like materials. 4. Easy Cleaning and Maintenance
- The non-porous surface allows stains and oil stains to be wiped directly or high-pressure washed, eliminating the problem of fabric carpets harboring dirt and grime, making it suitable for quick cleaning needs on buses.
5. Cost-Effectiveness
- While the initial cost may be higher than ordinary flooring, the long-term savings on maintenance and replacement costs make it a highly cost-effective solution.
II. Precautions
1. Weight Control
- Due to the high density of corundum, the vehicle’s weight distribution must be assessed to avoid impacting fuel efficiency or electric vehicle range. Thin-layer processes or composite lightweight substrates can be used.
2. Comfort Optimization
- The surface texture should balance slip resistance and foot feel, avoiding excessive roughness. Adjusting the corundum particle size (e.g., 60-80 mesh) or adding a resilient backing (e.g., rubber mats) can reduce fatigue.
3. Drainage Design
- Integrate with the slope of the bus floor to ensure that accumulated water can quickly drain to the diversion channels on both sides, preventing the accumulation of water film on the corundum surface. 4. **Aesthetics and Customization**
- Available in a variety of colors (such as gray and crimson) or custom patterns to match the bus interior style and avoid a monotonous industrial look.

5. Installation Process
- Professional installation is required to ensure a strong bond between the corundum layer and the substrate (such as metal or epoxy resin) to prevent peeling due to long-term vibration.

III. Implementation Recommendations
1. Pilot Application*
- Prioritize use in slippery areas such as steps and walkways, then gradually expand to the entire vehicle floor.
2. Composite Material Solutions
- For example: epoxy resin + corundum coating (2-3mm thickness), which combines strength and lightweight.
3. Regular Inspection and Maintenance
- While highly wear-resistant, edges should be regularly inspected for warping and coating peeling, and repairs should be made promptly.
4. Compliance with Industry Standards
- Must pass certifications such as the “Bus Interior Material Safety” to ensure environmental friendliness (low VOC) and the absence of sharp protrusions.

Conclusion: Carpet-pattern corundum flooring is well-suited to the functional needs of buses, particularly in terms of safety and durability. It is recommended to cooperate with vehicle manufacturers to optimize the design for specific models and conduct small-scale tests to verify the actual effect.
