Car mats, or automobile floor mats, are designed to protect the floor of a vehicle from dirt, as well as wear and tear. Most mats can be easily removed for cleaning. Some require fixation points to ensure they remain fixed in position.
Bacteria will circulate in the air-conditioning system of cars and can create foul smells
Most of these mats also slip around and will thus cause the clips that are supposed to hold them in place to easily break.
On 28th August 2009, a two-car collision killed a family of four in San Diego, California, U.S.A, due to the accident vehicle's floor mats being wrongly fitted, and the mats were not secured by either of the two retaining clips, hence trapping the accelerator pedal.
Safety systems are thus becoming more and more common in rubber mats. Take, for example an anti-slip bottom side and a heel pad for added safety and wear.
Examples of good automobile floor mats are 3D MAXpider Car Mats.
With a three-dimensional fit and design, 3D MAXpider Car Mats perfectly fit with the floor as they have raised edges that keep the original car floor carpet clean
3D MAXpider Car Mats
Official sole distributor, Best Tech System Automotive, brought 3D MAXpider Car Mats into Singapore two years ago after years of research.
These mats are suited for many luxury car makes and models such as Audi, BMW, Lexus, Mercedes-Benz, MINI, Porsche, Toyota, Volkswagen, Volvo etc.
3D MAXpider Car Mats are durable and lightweight. They protect against water and dirt and feature a durable heel pad under the accelerator pedal to avoid wear and tear, as well as a unique eyelet (for OEM clips) designed to fit the original carpet for an easy installation.
Unlike regular car mats, which are made from PVC, 3D MAXpider Car Mats are environmentally friendly and are manufactured with materials that are non toxic, odourless, and sound insulating.
Hailed as a 'liner revolution', 3D MAXpider Car Mats protect your original carpet from stains, rain and mud with a custom fit that will make dealing with dirt and dust a breeze.
3D MAXpider Car Mats retail at a reasonable price of $260 - $400 for a full set of five pieces. The top of the range 3D MAXpider Car Mats made of nylon may be expected in the later part of the year.
Advantages of 3D MAXpider Car Mats
The high-end design of 3D MAXpider Car Mats give a luxurious carpet feel, and is more compatible with a luxury car's interior, compared to the rubberised 2D look of other mats
The middle layer is made up of layered XPE or Mesh PET. Layered XPE and mesh PET are both waterproof and shock absorbent as well as feature thermostatic properties. They are also well ventilated, which keeps moisture from accumulating underneath. Thus, this prevents the production of harmful bacteria and bad odour.
Furthermore, both these layers are sound insulating as proven by the detailed acoustic detection conducted by the Automotive Research & Testing Centre (ARTC).
The third layer (underside) is a patented anti-slip MAXpider fibre that makes the mat safe for driving conditions by being in one position at all times, thereby eliminating sudden acceleration caused by a jammed pedal by the mat.
The mats have also undergone strict tension testing by the ARTC and it has been proven that at up to 50kg of force, the mats will not move. It doesn’t shift when you move your feet - not at all - and will not damage the original carpet, unlike other materials such as velcro.
Fears of liquid spilling are also eliminated with 3D MAXpider Car Mat's contoured design as well as waterproof properties.
3D MAXpider Car Mats are lightweight and come in full set of four or five pieces depending on car make and model
With 3D MAXpider Car Mats at your feet, drivers can now concentrate on what truly matters - driving safely.
