Transport Flooring Malaysia
Transport-sector flooring covers airport terminals, KLIA, LRT/MRT stations, train and bus interiors, and marine vessels. Specifications combine high commercial wear (continuous foot traffic, luggage and trolley loads), fire safety (often more stringent than buildings: BS 6853 smoke density for rail), slip resistance (R10 minimum on circulation, R11 in entrance and weather-exposed zones), and weight constraints (especially rail and marine).
