Rubberising your Bakkie



Rubberising your bakkie has numerous benefits. It provides ample protection to your flat bed and to the goods that you need to transport. You buy a bakkie because it is a work vehicle and you intend to use it for the transportation of goods. A rubberised bed and a canopy on the back of your bakkie means that the transportation possibilities are endless.

Let’s use a farrier as an example. A farrier will be travelling every day to locations that are often quite far apart. On top of all the travelling, they will need to be transporting a multitude of tools to assist them with their work. These tools will most definitely all be stored in the back of the bakkie. Now try to imagine a bakkie without a rubberised lining. Your tools, horseshoes, forges, and equipment will be slipping and sliding all over the place. They can be damaged in the process. Farrier equipment is very expensive, so it needs to be protected. Rubberising your bakkie bed is a great way to do this. The added protection, along with a canopy, will ensure that all of your goods are protected. No more slipping and sliding! Farriers travel to remote locations, so they will often be travelling on sand and pothole-infested roads. With a rubberised canopy bed, they don’t need to stress about losing or damaging any equipment.

If you’re looking for a solution to your bakkie woes, all you need to do is give Kango Canopies a call. We have all of your canopy solutions.

Choosing Between New, Refurbished & Used Bakkie Canopies


Bakkie owners looking to improve the functionality and design of their vehicle often decide to purchase a canopy. The first choice they are faced with is whether to buy new, refurbished or used bakkie canopies. The benefits of each available option need to be considered and these will be summarised below.

Benefits of New Bakkie Canopies


New canopies are made to fit the exact specifications of your vehicle and will usually come with an extensive warranty. A brand new canopy will also look a lot more attractive than a used one simply because the paint and coatings are fresh whereas older canopies may become faded and discoloured over time.

Benefits of Used Canopies


Used bakkie canopies can be found is pretty good condition and they can cost a fraction of what a brand new canopy would. If you wish to have the canopy sprayed so that it matches the exact colour of the vehicle then it would cost you less money to spray a used canopy than it would to custom spray a new one.

The Benefits of Buying Refurbished Canopies


A refurbished bakkie canopy is a used canopy that has been refreshed by a dealer. General improvements include the installing new rubbers, replacing existing fittings with new ones and giving the entire canopy a coat of paint. The colour of the paint will either be standard or matched to the colour of the bakkie. These canopies look like new bakkie canopies but cost less.

Increase the Value of Your Bakkie with a Bakkie Lining


What is a Bakkie Lining?

A bakkie lining is simply an application of a polyurethane coating to the load bin area of your bakkie. A bakkie lining has many benefits and is the number one addition to the durability and appeal of a bakkie besides a bakkie canopy.

In fact it is quite safe to say that the bakkie canopy and the bakkie lining actually go hand in hand in adding the maximum amount of protection and durability to a bakkie. A bakkie lining is also not just for commercial or industrial vehicles, although the majority of applications come from these two sectors.

The application of a bakkie lining to non – commercial vehicles such as sports utility vehicles, sports recreational vehicles and off road bakkies and trucks, has led to a major increase on non – commercial or industrial bakkie lining application in recent years.

Benefits of Adding a Bakkie Lining to Your Vehicle 


There are many obvious and some not so obvious benefits to adding a bakkie lining to your vehicle. A bakkie lining is available in various thicknesses, depending on the application of the vehicle itself. Industrial, heavy load vehicles and high use commercial vehicles such as bakkies used for electrical and plumbing contracting.

The bakkie lining is made from super tough polyurethane and will protect your bakkies load bin from abrasive loads, chemical spills, corrosion from salt, various chemicals and related load damage. A bakkie lining also carries the added benefit of making the entire load bin surface completely slip resistant to both humans and cargo alike.
