"What skirts are needed for my car" — every car owner thinks about this question. How to choose the best option among the huge variety of products on the auto accessories market.
What depends on the choice of polykes
The range of car mats today is extremely large. Despite that fact, that all polys implement only one function, there may be significant differences between them. Polyk models are distinguished:
- according to the method of attachment;
- by type of material;
- by the presence of additional functional inserts.

What are rugs made of??
Modern manufacturers offer car seats with different characteristics of materials. so, you can choose mats made of rubber, textiles, polyurethane, leather, EVA. Quite obvious, each material has its own, strengths and weaknesses.
- Rubber rugs are inexpensive, stay in place well, due to its own weight and stiffness, are distinguished by a long service life. But, it is very important to clean the water in time (example, from the snow, that melted), because the material does not absorb it and the water can spill onto the floor of the car.
- Polyurethane polys are similar to rubber, but, more flexible and lighter, so, they are more convenient to install. Polyurethane rugs do not harden in the cold, do not have a specific smell.
- Carpets made of textiles are included in the basic equipment of the car. Their outer layer can be like pile, and smooth, reverse — has a rubber coating, thanks to which the product will not leak water to the floor of the machine. Carpets made of textiles provide a neat and cozy interior look - but they dry longer than other types. Leather jackets - due to special processing, they acquire moisture-resistant properties, well retain various types of pollution. Even under conditions of periodic updating of processing, такі вироби за активної експлуатації досить швидко втрачають привабливий вигляд.
- EVA — вироби зі спіненого каучуку, що набувають все більшої популярності. Their main feature is a honeycomb surface, retains water and prevents the formation of puddles underfoot.
