On the forefront of design and innovation, Armor-Deck® manufactures industry-leading FRP panels to be used in a wide variety of transit applications. Each of our composite panels has undergone extensive testing to increase durability and create safer and more accessible multi-modal transit stations.
The specialized, high-density and non-porous material used in Armor-Deck®’s FRP composite panels offer the natural wear resistance of granite and is corrosion resistant, impervious to salt and other ice melting chemicals. The material of our FRP composite transit platforms protects against the negative effects of freeze/thaw cycles and eases maintenance. Armor-Deck® has incorporated a system of fully code compliant detectable warning tiles on our FRP panels to enhance the safety and accessibility for all persons.
Armor-Deck®’s broad range of FRP products provides a solution for every transit station. Nexatherm® Ice and Snow Melting Systems can be installed within our composite transit platforms for outdoor stations exposed to harsh winter climates. Both our at-grade and elevated composite transit platforms are equipped with truncated domes to alert persons of all abilities of the edge of the platform. Among the advantages of composite materials is the ability to easily create aesthetically pleasing composite stairs and composite bridges in areas where the use of traditional materials is not possible or practical. With Armor-Deck® fixed and portable ramps, passengers can safely move from platform to train and even cart to cart.
