​The Berlin U-Bahn is an underground mass rapid transit system serving the capital city of Germany.

The network operator, Berliner Verkehrsbetriebe (BVG), signed an agreement with Bombardier Transportation to supply 20 Series HK trains of four cars each. The trains, which run at a maximum speed of 60 km/h, were produced at Bombardier’s facility at Hennigsdorf, Germany.

As part of its strategic supplier partnership with Bombardier Transportation, BFG produced FRP interior panels for these trains at XXXX. 36 types of panels were produced, including side wall panels, door side panels, end cover panels, and door gear panels. All parts, which were produced using a hand lamination process, comply with DIN 5510 fire safety requirements.
