Download nowThe arrival of zero emission vehicles has seen a great number of changes in fleet operation ranging from technical and mechanical to maintenance and infrastructure. However, one aspect which has remained constant is the need to limit excess weight from a vehicle’s payload. Range economy in zero emission buses is every bit important as fuel economy in their diesel-powered counterparts. Power used to run different onboard systems inevitably drains charge and - by association - reduces service range creating operational cost. Facing associated ZEBs such as temperature regulation and acoustic insulation without adding excess weight is imperative to achieve an optimal balance and long-term cost effectiveness.
What is the value of adding insulation measures to conserve onboard heating or reduce ambient sound if the resultant savings are negated through the addition of excess weight to the vehicle? Until now acoustic flooring for vehicles has typically required the installation of dense materials and a compromise on weight. With our latest collection of bus floors we have moved to readdress the balance, enabling operators the freedom to enjoy the benefits of improved thermal and acoustic performance while keeping weight to a minimum.
One size rarely fits all, so to offer greater freedom of choice Altro has developed a collection that enables you to choose the level of performance you require paired with a range of stylish contemporary designs. Simply select a compact, compact-acoustic or full-acoustic product based on the specific needs of your fleet and save up to 26% in weight on alternative acoustic bus floors.
The versatility of our latest collection puts you in control to select the performance level best suited to your operating requirements. Operating in extreme climates? Then the thermal insulation of Altro Transflor Sonis could be the perfect fit for you. It could be that you’re looking for a deft balance of acoustics and thermal insulation with as little weight as possible, in which case our compact-acoustic Altro Transflor Metris is a fantastic way to optimise everything.
