Material Composition | High-traffic public areas (e.g., hotels) | - Industry Standard: PVC with 10-year wear resistance (ASTM D4060) - Our Base: Enhanced PU (15-year lifespan ▲5 years) (ASTM D4060) - Our Advanced: Reinforced TPU (20-year lifespan ▲5 years from Base) (ISO 4649) | Longer lifespan reduces replacement frequency and maintenance costs. | Advanced materials may increase upfront cost by ~20–30%. |
Slip Resistance | Wet/oily environments (e.g., malls, airports) | - Industry Standard: COF ≥0.4 (ASTM E303) - Our Base: COF ≥0.5 (▲12.5% grip improvement) (ASTM E303) - Our Advanced: COF ≥0.6 (▲20% over Standard) (ASTM E303) | Reduces slip risks in high-traffic areas. | Higher friction may require more frequent cleaning to maintain performance. |
Noise Reduction | Quiet environments (e.g., hospitals, libraries) | - Industry Standard: 45 dBA (ISO 3095) - Our Base: 42 dBA (▲3 dB quieter) (ISO 3095) - Our Advanced: 38 dBA (▲7 dB quieter than Standard) (ISO 3095) | Enhances user comfort and compliance with noise regulations. | Advanced models may be heavier, requiring reinforced escalator components. |
Flame Retardancy | Fire-safety critical buildings (e.g., offices, hotels) | - Industry Standard: UL 94 HB - Our Base: UL 94 V-2 (▲1 tier improvement) - Our Advanced: UL 94 V-0 (▲2 tiers over Standard) | Exceeds fire safety codes for high-risk environments. | V-0 materials may be more brittle and prone to cracking under stress. |
Light Reflectance | Low-light areas (e.g., stairwells, emergency exits) | - Industry Standard: 50% reflectance (ASTM E892) - Our Base: 60% reflectance (▲20% visibility boost) (ASTM E892) - Our Advanced: 70% reflectance (▲40% over Standard) (ASTM E892) | Improves visibility in poorly lit spaces. | Glossy surfaces may show scratches or require frequent polishing. |
Installation Ease | Quick retrofit projects (e.g., hotel renovations) | - Industry Standard: Requires adhesive (ASTM D3359) - Our Base: Peel-and-stick (▲Tool-free installation) (ASTM D3359) - Our Advanced: Magnetic attachment (▲No adhesive needed) (Custom spec) | Reduces downtime and labor costs during installation. | Magnetic systems may not adhere to non-metallic escalator surfaces. |
