Trevira CS is a brand name registered by Indorama Ventures Fibers Germany. It stands for inherently flame-retardant fabrics, which do not lose their safety properties over their lifetime due to washing or ageing. Trevira CS fabrics are fit to be used onboard cruise ships, as they pass the International Maritime Organization fire regulations for the maritime sector. A broad variety of Trevira CS collections are on the market worldwide, as drapes, decorative fabrics, upholstery fabrics, interior sun protection, wall coverings and room dividers. A new range of 30 UV-stable solution dyed filament yarns has recently been launched to create long-lasting outdoor fabrics. Under the brand Trevira CS eco, fabrics with a minimum of 50 per cent recycled content are available. Trevira CS textiles meet the demands of designers and architects when it comes to creating an exclusive environment for passengers on luxury liners. F. Ball and Co. is a UK-based manufacturer of subfloor preparation products and adhesives. It has developed a range of marine-certified products to optimise the appearance and performance of floor coverings installed on cruise ships and used in other marine applications. The company’s floor levelling compounds ensure a deck subfloor is smooth and level before a floor covering is installed, preventing indentations and undulations. They are essential for resilient floor coverings, such as luxury vinyl and safety flooring, but also important for making carpeted floors look their best and feel firm and consistent underfoot. F. Ball flooring adhesives offer solutions for virtually every floor covering type, material and the environmental conditions they are likely to encounter. This includes protection against temperature fluctuations and moisture or water – even if the floor covering is installed on an open deck. Forbo Flooring Systems manufactures two flooring products for the marine market: textile entrance systems (Coral Marine FR) and flocked floor coverings (Flotex FR). Both are International Maritime Organization approved. Coral Marine FR is an entrance and corridor floor covering that stops up to 95 per cent of dirt and moisture being brought onboard the ship, prolonging the lifetime of interior floor coverings and finishes, while reducing cleaning and maintenance costs. Flotex FR is a unique textile, flocked floor covering, combining the cleaning properties and durability of a resilient flooring with the comfort, slip resistance and acoustic properties usually associated with textiles. It can be custom designed and digitally printed in high definition, allowing for detailed designs and vivid life-like colours. Forbo Flooring Systems offers bespoke services including custom labelling, packaging, material scheduling, cut to shape and just-in-time logistics. F. Ball and Co.
