ONE PIECE FLOOR |
|
|
|
Zenith has made a
revolutionary one piece floor that is used
widely in all types of busses. The one piece
floor for busses is revolutionary due to the
fact that it consists of the raised aisle
(12 inches wide x 4.4 mm thickness) along
with the smooth side flooring ( 38 inches
wide x 3mm thickness) fused together as one
piece. This is the first of its kind in the
business. The floor provides the following
benefits.
 |
|
|
|
Provides protection against water damage |
|
This is a severe problem
faced by all manufacturers in the bus
business. Due to the aisle trims or joints
between the aisle and the smooth floor water
tends to seep through to the wood or steel
surface below. This causes corrosion of the
steel or rotting of the wooden layer below
amounting to huge expenses in warranty of
the bus floor that would need to be
refurbished. With the one piece floor, water
is unable to get through to the lower
surface as there are no joints, preventing
corrosion of the metal base or the rotting
of the wooden base.

Easier Installation |
|
The one piece can be
produced and pre cut to the lengths and
widths required of the customer. This allows
the manufacturer to install the flooring
with ease as only one roll is to be
installed instead of three rolls. Since here
are no joints to be sealed or isle trims to
be installed, considerable time is saved by
the bus manufacturer resulting in higher
levels of production and a decrease in
manpower. When calculated, the figures
definitely change the bottom line. |

Waste reduction |
|
When the rolls are cut to
size and length the scarp factor during
installation result in a significant
reduction of wastes. Disposal charges and
environmental restrictions for the disposal
allow the manufacturer to add to savings. |

Protection against ruptured joints |
|
Since the one piece floor
has no joints, there are no chances of the
joints or cladding being ruptured. This is
one of the primary reasons for refurbishing
the floor before the stipulated warranty
period. |
|
  |
|
|
|
|
|
|
Defective workmanship |
|
The leading cause for
flooring replacement is defective
workmanship. The one piece floor takes care
of this problem. Since the rolls are pre cut
there are no chances of a fault in
alignment. Adhesion failure of the joints or
the floor are virtually impossible as the
weight of the floor in its one piece form
ensures that even if the adhesive is not put
right the floor will stay in place. |
