Features and Quality Construction
This section details the specific construction elements that make this pet car mat suitable for New Zealand driving conditions, from urban commuting to rural adventures.
Headrest Attachment Design
The mat installs using adjustable straps that secure to headrests between 5-8cm width, compatible with over 95% of modern vehicles sold in New Zealand. The sturdy snap buttons release with 5kg of pressure for quick installation and removal, while maintaining secure attachment during travel on winding roads like those in the Coromandel Peninsula.
Waterproof Protection System
The 600D Oxford cloth base provides complete waterproofing, tested to withstand 500ml of liquid without leakage through to vehicle upholstery. The polyurethane coating maintains its protective properties through approximately 50 wash cycles at 30°C, ensuring long-term protection against pet accidents or wet fur after beach visits.
Durability and Safety Features
Metal components including the front hook and safety ring undergo zinc plating to resist corrosion from sea air exposure. The thickened edges provide 3cm of impact protection, reducing injury risk during sudden stops. The construction maintains integrity through 200+ installation cycles without strap stretching or fabric fatigue.
Practical Applications
This mat serves multiple purposes for pet owners throughout New Zealand, from daily school runs to weekend adventures.
Professional Dog Training Use
Dog trainers utilise the mat for transporting multiple animals between sessions, with the secure attachment preventing distraction during driving. The waterproof surface easily cleans between clients, while the storage compartment holds training treats and clickers during travel to agricultural shows or field trials.
Everyday Family Transportation
Families appreciate the mat during school runs and shopping trips, where pets remain contained and comfortable. The design prevents muddy paws from contacting vehicle interiors after walks at local reserves, while the foldable storage convenience suits urban living with limited space.
