Stair Tread on the Marshalls re-furbs

I'm the owner of RM 848 which I'm currently having restored to as near its ex-Marshalls condition of 2001 as is practical. The tread on several of the stairs is now curled up at the edges, and could do with replacing, so I'm keen to know what this material, a sort of sparkly grey colour (you can tell I'm not very technical), is called, and more importantly where I might be able to get a supply. It has the same appearance as the flooring material on the bus, but maybe of a different thickness. Any relevant info. would be gratefully received.

Its called Treadmaster and is the same material as used on the footstools and under the seating. A thicker variety is used on the platform and interior mats and slats. Try a google, it is a marine product, or you could try one of the RM owners clubs for supplies.

My bus number (if any): RTL 960
