• Protecting your vehicle's carpets (and, with High liners, the expensive side panels) will make a considerable difference to its resale value.
  
  
• You'll save a lot of clearing up, which is unnecessary time and hassle - perhaps earth from the garden centre, or sand from the beach, or mud from the dogs, or whatever revolting chemical might leak out of its cheaply made container on the way home from the supermarket or DIY shop. Carbox and Autoform liners have 'a rim around the edge' so that whatever spills on the liner stays on the liner, and they're car specific so there are no gaps.
  
  
• You'll have the confidence to make the best use of your car, in the same way as you'll do grubby jobs much more cheerfully and efficiently when you're appropriately dressed. If you've got a boot liner in place, who cares about spilt sand, earth, compost, DIY stuff, wet clothes, soggy camping gear, muddy dogs, muddy golf bags, muddy bike wheels? Family MPVs in particular can take a beating; how often do grot and sticky drinks get trodden into the carpet on the way back from school, or on holiday? Yuk! Drinks holders are a great idea but they open up a whole new set of problems!

JV Carbox (based near Bremen in Germany) invented the concept of the car specific boot liner in 1960, and have remained at the leading edge of this market. All their products are quality certified to ISO 9001. They also manufacture boot liners as Original Equipment for many car manufacturers, including Audi, BMW, Citroen, Daewoo, Fiat, Nissan, Suzuki and Volkswagen.

Autoform liners are also high quality and are supplied to car manufacturers (Ford amongst others) and importers. They make approximately 300 different models, and like the Carbox liners and mats are tailor-made to each vehicle.

• Liners and mats are designed for specific vehicles so they are always a perfect fit. There are well over 1,000 different liners in the range.
  
  
• They are made with a "rim around the edge" to ensure that whatever is on the liner stays there. The Low liners have a 3.5cm rim (Autoform) or 5cm rim (Carbox), the High liners up to 47cm!

• They are created from flexible, durable, waterproof, recyclable plastics. Carbox products are made from polypropylene and high density polyethylene co-polymers, especially developed for them by Hoechst, the German chemicals giant. They are sufficiently rigid yet are also shock proof, odourless, safe for food use, oil resistant (to e.g. petrol, diesel) and fully recyclable. They are resistant to hard impact and sharp edges, and don't deteriorate with use, or crack, or whiten as ABS plastic products tend to do when knocked.
