I would say Yes to the fist link and not sure to the second link.

The first one has been confirmed through an email from Iloca Services as being EKO-FLOR.

The second one has been confirmed through an email from Trailers Canada as being a HAVCO floor.

And just to make sure everyone knows what the HAVCO composite floor is, this is from their website. Here is the link... http://www.havcowp.com/site/files/JEC_Composite_Floor.pdf

Design of Composite Flooring

To address the needs of the trucking industry, we embarked on a research program in 1993. Based on several years
of our research work, composite flooring for van trailers was developed using laminated oak boards and glass fiber
reinforced epoxy composite. This flooring has a thin layer of composite panel adhesively bonded to the bottom side
of each laminated oak floorboard [4, 5]. The composite floor boards are installed in trailers just as the conventional
oak floorboards. The top side of each composite floor board is composed of laminated oak as in conventional wood
flooring. Surface characteristics of wood, appearance, ability to nail, method of installation etc., are preserved
while the high strength, environmental resistance and fatigue resistance of glass/epoxy panel are additionally
incorporated into the flooring. The mechanical strength properties of the composite flooring are significantly higher
than those of the conventional wood flooring. This aspect allows the use of thinner composite boards leading to
weight savings in trailers and also saves wood.

It is, IN NO WAY, similar or comparable to the 100% composite EKO-FLOR panel.
