UK - Super Trim Plus and Premier Trim Plus are the names of new lightweight non-woven fabrics for use by bus and coach manufacturers for roof linings, wall sides, seat backs and luggage compartments from international transportation fabrics specialist, Camira Transport Fabric Ltd of Mirfield, UK.

Both fabric series comply with fire retardation regulations ECE Reg. 118.03*, which became mandatory for first registrations of all Class II and Class III vehicles within the M3 category on 26th July. To meet the new ECE Reg 118.03, both Super Trim Plus and Premier Trim Plus fabrics have been enhanced with additional flame retardants which enable them to pass both a vertical flammability test, as well as a horizontal test.
