The flooring material sets the tone for the overall look and feel of a vessel with many criteria influencing the specification including aesthetics, durability, maintenance and the requirement of IMO/MED certification. Add to this other performance requirements such as slip resistance, sound absorption, comfort, anti-static properties and cleanability and it becomes obvious why flooring choice is a complex one.
Our IMO certified floor coverings can be used with confidence on cruise ships, passenger ferries, charter boats and other seagoing vessels, in addition to offshore facilities where the wheelmark classification is required.
Go to the Marine floor coverings
We have developed a truly comprehensive and compliant flooring product portfolio for the bus and coach sector. Within the portfolio are entrance systems, safety floors, vinyl floors and flocked flooring as well as adhesives, accessories and installation tools.

In addition to the breadth of our rail, marine and bus and coach portfolios, combined with flexibility in creating custom design and colour solutions tailored to your project, at Forbo, we understand that service is equally important, especially when it comes to time and cost management.
Forbo offer a range of services for both new build and refurbishment projects that ensure maximum efficiencies from delivery to storage, from labelling to packaging and from installation to operation.
In order to save time and costs during installation, we are able to cut to specific roll lengths or to detailed floor plans, so that the floor covering can be easily put into place.
• Any geometry (including steps)
• Highly accurate in-house cutting technology
• Drawing plans can be imported for cutting e.g. DWG, DXF files
Whether you need all deliveries to be made on a specific size pallet or require specific boxes, crates or custom wrapping, we will make sure that the packaging is to your correct specification and satisfaction.
Appreciating that the flooring requirements for different parts of the project will vary, we can help by grouping together all products specific to your build programme, ensuring the right materials find the right location.
We offer a fully customised labelling service for all our products, from part numbers to project references and barcodes. We’ll agree with you what information is required, before creating something unique for your project.We offer a fully customised labelling service for all our products, from part numbers to project references and barcodes.
