Choosing the best cargo liner for your vehicle is an important decision if you desire maximum protection for your trunk. Both Hatchbag and Weathertech sell cargo liners, that fit into the space of your trunk. Whether you simply value a clean interior or haul around groceries, hiking equipment or pets, the correct cargo liner will be provide the best protection and a tailored fit. In this blog, we’ll look at the features, materials used, and customizations offered by both companies, comparing their strengths to help you make an informed decision on the right cargo liner for you.

Overview and Key Features of the Hatchbag Cargo Liner

Hatchbag cargo liners stand out with their tailor-made fit and durability. The Hatchbag cargo liner that you order for your vehicle, will fit every curve and contour, following the trunk’s natural shape. This guarantees the ultimate protection for your vehicle’s interior. The Hatchbag cargo liner covers every inch of your trunk, ensuring that no dirt, spills and wear and tear, damage your vehicle’s interiors. Hatchbag has been designing cargo liners for cars for decades, and the process of producing these is well thought out and guarantees an amazing product. Hatchbag focusses on a robust and perfectly functioning cargo liner mixed with aesthetic appeal, making sure your vehicle looks great and is spotless.

One key feature of the Hatchbag cargo liner that makes its durability so impressive, is the material used in the manufacturing process. Hatchbag cargo liners are made from fibre reinforced PVC, a tear proof and extremely strong material. This material is also water resistant, making it ideal for users who regularly transport items that could leak or wet and smelly dogs! Hatchbag cargo liners can handle anything, and will always protect your vehicle.

One of the impressive features of the Hatchbag cargo liner is how customizable the product is. We want your cargo liner to fit seamlessly into your everyday life and what you are using your car for. Whether it’s hauling heavy equipment into the trunk or reclining your rear seats for large objects, Hatchbag’s comprehensive protection has you covered. An example of one of our extras is the bumper flap. This hangs over the bumper of the car and protects this area from damage. This is ideal for dog owners, who notice that claw marks from their pets jumping into the trunk, are damaging the area. Check out our extensive range of extras and accessories to see what you can add to your vehicle to not only maximize protection, but get the most out of your car’s functionality. The Hatchbag cargo liner also comes in a range of different colors. You can match the interior or exterior of your car, or opt for a completely different look with a vibrant pop of color. The level of customization that Hatchbag offers, ensures a fully protected vehicle with an aesthetic appeal.

Overview and Key Features of the Weathertech Cargo Liner

Weathertech also produce cargo liners that are made to fit your vehicle. The Weathertech cargo liner is limited in the protection that it can offer due to the material that is used. The cargo liners are made from thermoplastic elastomer, which has been noted to curl up in the corners and stiffen, leaving areas of your trunk unprotected. The cargo liners also only cover the base of your vehicle, leaving the sides and the back exposed to damage, wear and tear and spillages that are difficult to fully remove.

Weathertech cargo liners are durable and are manufactured with a textured surface that helps to reduce slip and slide in the trunk. However, this material can be difficult to clean, with dirt and debris lodging into the grooves and preventing a full and spotless clean. This can give the cargo liner a tired appearance in your trunk.

The Weathertech cargo liner is semi customizable, offering a bumper protector to add some more coverage to the bumper area. However, in comparison to the extensive range Hatchbag offers, this singular extra won’t add much to the protection of your car.  

Durability and Material Comparison

When it comes to comparing the materials used when making Hatchbag cargo liners and Weathertech cargo liners, both companies use durable materials. However, how the materials are specifically used in terms of design choices, massively impacts the protection of your vehicle.

Hatchbag cargo liners are made from fibre reinforced PVC, which is a water resistant material and is known for its durability. Fibre reinforced PVC is very effective in protecting your vehicle from dirt, wear and tear and spills. With the cargo liner being made from PVC, this makes our product easy to clean and easy to maintain. No machine washing required, simply wipe down your cargo liner with a damp cloth or add some soap for those particularly tough stains. This makes the Hatchbag cargo liner a great choice for users who often are faced with a wet and dirty trunk.

Weathertech cargo liners are made from a blend of thermoplastic elastomer. This material is both flexible and durable, but has limitations when acting as a cargo liner for your trunk. In high and low temperatures, the material can start to curl up in the corners, leaving gapping. This leaves your trunk exposed and susceptible to damage. Additionally, Weathertech don’t offer any form of comfort mats that cushion the cargo liner. This can lead to uncomfortable pets and materials such as glass not being protected on road trips.

In terms of the durability of the cargo liners, both Hatchbag and Weathertech liners are hard wearing. However, when choosing a cargo liner, you need to weigh up how effective the cargo liner is in protecting your trunk. We can guarantee that the Hatchbag cargo liner will protect your vehicle for as long as you have it.

Installing Your Cargo Liner: Hatchbag vs Weathertech

Installing a cargo liner needs to be a straightforward process. Additionally, when you install your cargo liner, you want it to stay in the same position, so your liner is constantly protecting your trunk. There are some differences in how you fit the Hatchbag and Weathertech cargo liners, which are important to outline, so you make the best decision for your vehicle.

The Hatchbag cargo liners are a tailor-made product that seamlessly fit your vehicle’s interior. In every cargo liner purchase, you will receive a detailed guide that shows, with pictures and writing, how to fit your cargo liner. With the guide, you will receive the Velcro needed for the installation. There is one crucial step to take before you install your cargo liner and that is applying Autoglym Intensive Tar Remover to the plastic parts of the trunk. This removes any silicone buildup which helps the Velcro stick to your trunk, much better. After this step has been carried out, you simply attach the Velcro to the plastic parts of the car, tie the headrest straps around the headrests, and your cargo liner is ready for adventures. As the cargo liner is attached by Velcro, it can be easily taken out the trunk and just as easily kept in, so your car gets the ultimate protection.

Weathertech cargo liners are also tailor-made for your vehicle, but gapping can often be an issue. The installation process is slightly different in that it is only one step. The cargo liner is placed into the base of the trunk with no added layers of security. This can result in the cargo liner shifting around as there are no anchoring points that keep the liner secure. The installation method is quick and efficient, but with no guarantee of security, your cargo liner can shift and your trunk susceptible to damage.

Both the Hatchbag and Weathertech cargo liners are easy to fit into your vehicle. If you prioritise security and optimum coverage, the Hatchbag cargo liner is the way to go. The Velcro strips in conjunction with the well-crafted headrest straps, guarantees a secure cargo liner that won’t move around in your trunk.

Which Cargo Liner is Right for You?

Ultimately, the decision between Hatchbag and Weathertech cargo liners depends on your needs and preferences. We can guarantee the Hatchbag cargo liner will cater to your lifestyle. The Hatchbag cargo liner also offers unbeatable protection, helping out the resale value of your vehicle and crucially, keeping it spotless.

Importance of SUV Cargo Mats

SUV cargo mats play a significant part in protecting your vehicle’s interior.  The trunk space is prone to lots of damage, including spills and scratches. Regularly transporting items like sports equipment, gardening supplies, or even your pets, increases the risk of permanent damage. By investing in a quality cargo mat along with your cargo liner, you can ensure that your SUV’s floor is protected from the challenges that come with regular usage. This not only safeguards your vehicle, but helps with its resale value.

There are many benefits to adding cargo mats to your cargo liner purchase, especially for SUV’s. The rubber mat that we offer helps to keep your belongings secure during transit. A non-slip mat (the Hatchbag rubber mat) prevents items from sliding around, which is important when wanting to prevent damage to the trunk. Choosing the right cargo mat for your lifestyle and vehicle, can give you reassurance whilst driving.

Types of SUV Cargo Mats

Hatchbag offers a range of SUV cargo mats, but choosing the right one can sometimes be difficult. Here are the the types of cargo mats we offer and who best benefits from them.

Cargo Rubber Mat: This mat is designed to sit on the base of the Hatchbag cargo liner. We mainly recommend this mat to people who use their boot space heavily. The surface of the cargo mat is a Round Stud design, which helps to reduce slipping and sliding in transit. This mat is cut to shape, so fits the base of your boot perfectly and covers to the edges.

Cargo Pet Mat: This mat is also designed to sit on the base of your Hatchbag cargo liner. It has a non-slip rubber backing and can also be washed in your washing machine. We recommend this to pet owners who want to keep their pets extra comfy in the trunk. Prioritise your pooch and invest in the pet mat.

Cargo Odor Mat: Just like the other mats, this mat also sits on the base of your Hatchbag cargo liner. When transporting pets in your trunk, it is highly likely that they can start to smell. This mat is made with activated carbon which eliminates and absorbs bad odors. This mat also catches those pesky pet hairs.

Each Hatchbag cargo mat is custom fit to your SUV. By adding a cargo mat to your cargo liner purchase, you are maximising protection and prioritising the cleanliness of your trunk.

Top Features to Look for in SUV Cargo Mats

When looking for a SUV cargo mat, there are lots of features to look out for that enhance their functionality. A key feature to look for is a non-slip surface. Choosing a mat with a non-slip rubber backing is crucial to guarantee that no items are moving in transit. This is important for passenger safety and to prevent damage to your trunk.

Another key feature is water-resistance. Choosing a water resistant cargo mat for your SUV such as the Hatchbag cargo rubber mat is vital in preventing water damage to your trunk. This feature is especially beneficial for families or pet owners who may frequently deal with messes that they don’t want seeping into the floor of the trunk.

Ease of cleaning should also be a key feature to look for. Each Hatchbag cargo mat can be cleaned in situ. The Pet mat can also be washed in the washing machine to get that brand new feel. You don’t want to spend your time cleaning a cargo mat, so investing in Hatchbag promises less time spent cleaning.

Cleaning and Maintenance Tips for SUV Cargo Mats

If you want your cargo mat to last the lifetime of your car, cleaning and maintaining your SUV cargo mat is important. The cleaning method will depend on the type of material your mat is made from. For rubber mats and the Hatchbag odor mat, cleaning in situ with soap and water is effective in removing stains and dirt.

Carpeted mats such as the pet mat require a different approach when cleaning. Simply shaking off the mat is the first step to get rid of any loose dirt. You can then follow this up by spot-cleaning any stains with a carpet cleaner in the trunk, or simply pop it into your washing machine on a gentle spin.

When cleaning your SUV cargo mat, also look for any signs of wear and tear or damage. We like to say your cargo liners and cargo mats from Hatchbag will last the lifetime of your vehicle, but severe damage may make your mat less functional. However, by following our cleaning advice and maintenance tips, we can ensure you that your cargo mat will stay in the best condition.

When you are finding solutions to protect your car’s interior, many overlook the trunk space. Your trunk can face the brunt of sand from the beach in the summer, wet leaves in the fall and snow and rain in the winter and spring . It is important to weatherproof your trunk to stop the damage from the seasonal elements. Using the correct accessories for your car ensures that the interior will remain clean and dry, no matter what the weather has in store for it. In this blog, we’ll explore how to weatherproof your car with easy to use and efficient products. The versatile and durable Hatchbag cargo liner is a smart way to protect your trunk from anything and everything, all year round.

Why Weatherproofing Your Trunk Matters

The cargo space is often one of the most used areas of a car. Hauling groceries, sporting equipment, or transporting pets can all significantly impact the trunk. When adding poor or messy weather conditions to this, the trunk space can feel even more worn. Every season has elements that can cause damage to the cargo area. An example of this is in the summer time. Sand from the beach, mixed with the salt water, can result in a messy and unsightly trunk. This sand and water mixture is difficult to remove, making the task of restoring your trunk to its original condition, challenging.

If you weatherproof your trunk area, you are protecting its interior. Say goodbye to stains, water damage and debris, that all affect the value of your car. In weatherproofing the interior, you are preserving the longevity of your vehicle whilst maintaining a dry and odor free trunk. A waterproof car cover or waterproof car trunk liner is a great investment to keep your car looking fresh, no matter the weather conditions.

Top Features of an All-Weather Cargo Liner

If you are struggling to choose the right liner for your trunk space, some key questions you want to ask yourself are: Is it durable? And, is it long lasting?  Here are some key features to consider in an all-weather cargo liner:

Waterproof Protection: Having a waterproof car trunk liner ensures that any moisture, spillages or rainwater doesn’t seep into your trunk.

Easy to Clean: When choosing your cargo liner, pick one that can be wiped down in situ. A Hatchbag waterproof car seat liner is easily maintainable and doesn’t need to be removed.

Custom, Tailored Fit: A car trunk liner needs to fit the exact dimensions of your car to ensure protection. The Hatchbag cargo liner is tailor-made to fit the dimensions of your vehicle, which promises a glove-like fit.

Durability: When searching for a waterproof car cover, take interest in the durability of the materials used. The material needs to be tough enough to withstand anything and everything.

How Hatchbag Liners Adapt to Every Season

Whatever climate you live in, Hatchbag cargo liners will adapt to all weather conditions. Your trunk space deserves ultimate protection all throughout the year. Here is how the Hatchbag liner works in seasons and climates:

Summer:

If where you live is hot all year round or you just have a few months of the sun, your trunk space can be exposed to sand and debris from your outdoor activities. Planning a trip to the beach or the park? The Hatchbag cargo liner comes in handy when it’s time to face these elements. The material of the cargo liner allows you to simply brush away any traces of sand or debris, leaving a nice clean surface and your trunk looking fresh.

Fall:

During the fall, leaves and mud often attach to hiking boots that are usually flung into your trunk or pets who come along on fall adventures. The Hatchbag liner is easily wipeable and removes any traces of wet leaves and dirt. Keep the liner in the trunk, just use soap and water to get rid of the fall messes.

Spring and Winter:

During the winter and spring times, we face the issues of increased snow and rainfall. Hatchbag cargo liners are water-resistant car trunk liners, keeping the moisture at bay that inevitably damages your trunk space. Whether you’re dealing with the effects of melted snow or spring showers, Hatchbag liners make sure that your trunk is kept dry and protected.

Protecting Your Car in Extreme Climates

Extreme climate conditions can be a challenge for any car owner. A waterproof car cover is essential not only for the maintenance of your interior, but also to keep your car safe. If you face colder climates, snow, ice, and road salt can massively impact the state of your trunk. A waterproof car seat cover or waterproof car mats can help prevent moisture and dirt from seeping in, keeping the interior spotless.

When you are looking for the best waterproof car cover, consider factors such as the climate where you live, and your vehicle needs.

Maintaining a Clean and Weatherproof Trunk

Once a Hatchbag cargo liner is secured in your trunk, you are ready to face any climate. It is still very important to take good care of your cargo liner, as a clean and fresh cargo liner will look great in your car. We have some simple tips that will keep your trunk weatherproofed with the Hatchbag cargo liner:

Regular Cleaning: Take some time each week to clean your cargo liner. Moisture build up in any enclosed space can cause mold or mildew, so taking this step is important.

Brush off Sand and Debris: After a beach trip or an outdoor activity, give your waterproof car trunk liner a brush to remove any sand or debris. Although the cargo liner is detachable, this can be done in situ. A dustpan and brush should do the trick in removing any mess.

Use Hatchbag Mats: In addition to your purchase of a car trunk liner, take a look at the range of Hatchbag mats. The rubber mat is a waterproof car mat, which can further help with any excessive moisture in the cargo space.

Conclusion

Weatherproofing your trunk is very important if you want to keep your car in the best condition. From sand to snow, the Hatchbag cargo liner is versatile, durable and long lasting, giving your trunk the ultimate protection. This waterproof car cover and the waterproof car mats we offer, ensure that your car is protected from the elements of every season. Make the investment today and weatherproof your trunk.

When it’s time to part ways with your car, whether selling or upgrading, you want to maximize its resale value. The questions of how to keep your car’s interior clean and in top condition, start arising at this time, as we know a well-kept interior has an impact on the price point. Hatchbag cargo liners are the key item in protecting your trunk, helping with your car’s resale value.

One of the most effective ways in keeping your car in pristine condition, is by using a cargo liner. A Hatchbag cargo liner is a tailor-made second skin for your trunk.

Why Resale Value Matters for Your Car

When you are selling your vehicle, the resale value plays a crucial part in how much you can get for it. You don’t want to feel that your car is given a lower resale value than what you think it deserves. Factors including the condition of the interior, exterior, and the age of your vehicle are all influential in the calculation of the resale value. A well-maintained and clean interior can be the deciding factor for many buyers, as many don’t want to purchase a car that they then have to thoroughly clean. Whilst the cars with the best resale value are popular, a vehicle that's not particularly known for its resale value can benefit greatly from a protected and spotless interior.

As you are looking to part ways with your car, the question arises: "what is the resale value of my car?" The answer is often found in how well the car has been looked after whilst you have had it. This includes the care and maintenance of the interior. This is where cargo liners can really help you out.

The Role of Cargo Liners in Interior Protection

When it comes to keeping your car’s interior in the best condition, car floor liners and cargo liners are your first port of call. These custom-fit trunk protectors safeguard your vehicle from dirt, spillages, dog hair, and wear and tear. Whether you have a cargo liner for a subcompact SUV, a hatchback, or any other vehicle, these trunk protectors will match every curve and contour of your trunk, offering maximum protection.

A Hatchbag cargo liner is perfect for covering and shielding the trunk area, protecting it from scratches and spills that can cause lasting and impactful damage to your vehicle. Without a cargo liner, your car’s interior is open to damage. This results in an easily worn trunk, which can negatively impact its value when you decide to sell. By adding a cargo liner to your trunk, you’re ensuring that your vehicle stays clean, fresh, and well-maintained, keeping the resale value of your car, high.

Why Hatchbag Cargo Liners Are the Perfect Solution

When you’re looking to purchase a cargo liner, it’s very important to choose one that offers the perfect mix of durability, ease of use, and protection.

Long-Term Benefits of Investing in a Cargo Liner

By investing in a cargo liner, you are protecting your car now and helping out its resale value in the future. The superior protection provided by a cargo liner ensures that your vehicle's interior remains in pristine condition. In preserving the value of your car, the task of selling becomes easier.

A cargo liner can prevent stains and dirt seeping into your trunk and creating lasting damage. This would typically lower the resale price of your car. Buyers in the second hand car market appreciate vehicles that have been well-cared for, and the added benefit of knowing that your car has a well-maintained interior could increase its appeal. A Hatchbag cargo liner ensures that your vehicle will stand out in the used car market.

Choosing the Right Cargo Liner for Your Car

When it comes to purchasing a cargo liner, factors that are important to consider include the material of the liner and how it will fit into your car. Hatchbag cargo liners are made from fibre reinforced PVC and offer a custom, tailor-made fit.

Let’s look into why Hatchbag is the perfect solution for covering visible damage and safeguarding car appearance.

Why You Need a Cargo Mat or Liner

If you haven't protected your cargo space with a Hatchbag trunk mat or liner, you may be noticing an increase in visible damages. The inside of your trunk, especially in SUVs and larger vehicles, is constantly exposed to dirt, spills, and overall wear and tear. Over time, this heavy usage can lead to permanent damage, diminishing the overall look of your car and reducing its resale value.

A cargo mat that is an accessory for the Hatchbag cargo liner is designed to further protect your vehicle, reducing odors and adding stability for pets. This further ensures your trunk stays in pristine condition. Hatchbag offers a variety of mats to cater to different needs and preferences. From added non-slip properties to comfort and convenience, Hatchbag mats do much more than just protect your vehicle- they improve its functionality.

How Hatchbag Mats Protect Your Car and Pets

One of the key advantages of Hatchbag cargo mats is their ability to provide extra protection against car damage, especially for those with pets. If you have a dog that regularly rides with you in your SUV, you know how difficult it can be to keep the back area clean and undamaged. Pets can cause scratches, hair build up, and even damage the interior if they move around too much.

Hatchbag mats are designed with anti-slip properties that help dogs stay stable in the back of your vehicle, preventing sudden movement or sliding that can lead to further damage. Plus, the mats extend all the way to the edge of the trunk, offering full coverage all around. This ensures no part of your cargo area is left exposed to potential damage.

Types of Hatchbag Mats

Hatchbag offers a range of mats designed for different lifestyles. Whether you need extra comfort for your dog or are simply looking to keep your car in the condition you bought it, there’s a practical solution for everyone. Here are the three mats that Hatchbag offers:

Hatchbed Mat

The Hatchbed Mat is perfect for those who want extra comfort for pets, especially during long trips. It’s made from a soft yet durable material that provides cushioning, making it more comfortable for your dog. It’s ideal for people who travel with pets frequently and need a mat that combines both comfort and protection.

Odor Mat

If you’re concerned about keeping your car smelling fresh, the Odor Mat from Hatchbag is the ideal solution. This mat contains active charcoal which helps eradicate odors, making it perfect for people who transport pets, sports gear, or any items that tend to leave behind lingering smells. It not only protects your trunk but also helps maintain a clean and fresh-smelling car, just like you bought it!

Rubber Mat

For those who need a more rugged, heavy-duty option, the Rubber Mat is the most durable choice. It offers maximum protection against spills, dirt, and debris, making it the perfect choice for anyone who frequently transports heavy or messy items. Its non-slip properties make it ideal for keeping items in place during travel, and it’s also easy to clean. Just wipe it down and it’s ready for the next trip.

Choosing the Right Cargo Mat for Your SUV

When it comes to choosing the right cargo mat for your SUV, it’s important to consider how you use your vehicle and your lifestyle choices. If you regularly transport pets, a cargo mat for SUVs with anti-slip properties and comfort, like the Rubber Mats and Hatchbed Mats, will provide cosiness and security for your dog while protecting the trunk area. For those who mainly use their trunk for carrying shopping or sports equipment, a trunk mat that is easy-to-clean and durable like the Rubber Mat, might be your best option.

If eliminating odors is a priority for you, especially if you often carry items like sports gear or wet clothes, consider the Odor Mat. This will not only protect the trunk but also keep your car smelling fresh.

Why Hatchbag Is the Ultimate Solution for Your Car

Not only do Hatchbag cargo mats and liners protect your vehicle from visible damage, but they also prevent further damage from occurring. By covering your trunk with a Hatchbag product, you’re creating a barrier between your vehicle’s surface and whatever you’re transporting.

By investing in a Hatchbag liner and mat, you’re also maintaining the car appearance, helping with your vehicle’s resale value. Don’t let visible trunk damage diminish the value of your vehicle. Choose a Hatchbag cargo liner and mat for your SUV and enjoy long-lasting protection.

When it comes to protecting your SUV’s trunk from dirt, spills, and wear and tear, investing in a quality cargo liner with the best protection is essential. But with so many options available, how do you know whether to go with a universal SUV cargo liner or a custom-fit SUV cargo liner? While universal cargo liners might seem convenient, Hatchbag’s custom-fit SUV trunk liners offer distinct advantages that make them better than the generic options. In this blog, we’ll compare Hatchbag’s trunk liners to universal alternatives, highlighting why Hatchbag is the better choice for your vehicle’s protection.

Superior Fit and Coverage: The Tailor-made Advantage

One of the most significant drawbacks of universal trunk liners is the lack of a precise fit. The universal cargo liners are designed to be a one-size-fits-all solution, which often leads to incomplete coverage, especially in the corners or edges of your trunk. This means your trunk can be exposed to any wear and tear, decreasing the value of your vehicle. In contrast, Hatchbag’s custom-fit SUV cargo liners are tailored specifically for your vehicle make and model, ensuring a perfect fit with maximum coverage, covering all areas of your trunk.

Whether you drive a compact car or a midsize SUV, Hatchbag has a car trunk liner designed to match your exact specifications. With a custom trunk protector, you won’t have to deal with the drawbacks of universal trunk liners, such as gapping and movement when in use. The snug, glove-like fit of the Hatchbag cargo liner ensures that the liner stays in place, offering continuous protection for your cargo space.

The Technology Behind a Cargo Liner

At Hatchbag, we scan every car model to ensure that your cargo liner aligns to every curve and contour of your trunk. We use a 3D scanning machine and meticulously cover all angles of the trunk, to provide maximum protection and to make sure no area of your trunk is exposed. The 3D scanner picks up on the precise contours of your trunk, so when your cargo liner is fitted in your vehicle, it becomes a second skin. This glove-like fit is crucial when you want superior protection.

Universal SUV trunk liners don’t undergo this process, allowing for gapping, a poor fit and much less protection. The generic fit provided won't match each curve and contour of your vehicle. Hatchbag provides that ultimate protection.

Premium Quality: Long Lasting and Durable

The quality of the material used in a cargo liner can significantly impact its longevity and effectiveness. Many universal trunk liners are made from lower-quality materials that may not withstand heavy use or offer any real protection. Hatchbag, however, uses fibre reinforced PVC, a highly durable material that can handle everything from pet hair to muddy boots without compromising on performance.

Made in the UK, Hatchbag’s cargo liners are built to last. The premium, tough fabric provides superior resistance against spills, stains, and wear, ensuring that your SUV cargo liner holds up to the demands of daily use. Whether you're transporting shopping, sports gear, or your pet, Hatchbag’s materials are carefully crafted to provide long lasting protection, while maintaining a spotless interior.

Tailored-Made Additions for Further Convenience

When you choose a Hatchbag cargo liner, you can add extras and accessories to further maximise the protection of your trunk. Hatchbag offers items such as the bumper flap, which is a protective flap that hangs from the edge of your trunk, helping guard the area from pet scratches when they jump into the cargo space. We also offer a tailgate cover, that sits underneath the rear window, protecting from anything that rests against your trunk door. The are just two of the additions that we offer to help keep your car’s interior absolutely spotless.

The custom-fit design eliminates the need for constant adjustments or repositioning when adding your extras and accessories, which is often a hassle with universal mats that don't quite fit the contours of your trunk.

Made in the UK: The Assurance of Quality

One of the main things we take pride in is that Hatchbag cargo liners are proudly made in the UK. This production means that Hatchbag can maintain high standards of craftsmanship and quality control, ensuring each product meets rigorous durability and design specifications. By choosing Hatchbag, you’re supporting a company that takes pride in producing premium products in the UK, and ensuring that your car trunk protector is built to last.

Tips for Choosing the Right Cargo Liner for Dogs

When choosing the perfect cargo mat for your dog, consider the following factors to get the best fit and protection for your car:

1. Size and Shape

Check the specifications of your trunk area before purchasing to ensure you have chosen the right mat for your cargo liner. Hatchbag offers a custom-made fit for many car models, making it easy to find the perfect liner for your vehicle, and therefore, a mat.

2. Material and Durability

Choose a liner made of durable, water-resistant material that can withstand the wear and tear your pet’s adventures will bring. Hatchbag cargo liners are designed to last, even under heavy use.

3. Non-Slip Design

If your dog tends to move around a lot in the trunk, an anti-slip cargo mat can help keep them comfortable and safe. The Hatchbag mat is non-slip ensuring the mat stays in place, even on the bumpiest of rides.

4. Ease of Cleaning

Dogs bring a lot of messes, so you’ll want a cargo liner mat that’s easy to clean. The Hatchbag mat can be wiped down with minimal effort to keep your car looking fresh.

How to Maintain Your Cargo Liner Mats

Maintaining your Hatchbag cargo liner along with your mat is simple and ensures they last for years. Here are a few quick tips:

1. Regular Cleaning

Wipe the mat down with a damp cloth to remove dirt and debris. For more stubborn messes, you can use a pet-friendly cleaner or vacuum the surface to remove dog hair.

2. Air Drying

If the mat gets wet, take it out of the trunk and air dry it to prevent any mold or mildew build-up. Most dog mud mats dry quickly, so this step is easy to manage.

3. Storage

You can keep the mat in the trunk with the cargo liner, no need to take out if your pet is regularly travelling in the trunk.
