Side door claddings are more than an exterior styling enhancement—they play a pivotal role in protecting vehicle panels from impact and abrasion.

Why Side Cladding Should Be Standard:

Vehicles used in off-road or semi-urban environments frequently encounter scratches from branches, parking hazards, or other vehicles. Side claddings shield the most exposed areas while allowing for brand differentiation through colour or finish options.

Key Advantages:

  • Impact Resistance: ABS construction absorbs low-speed impact and resists deformation.

  • Corrosion Protection: Prevents stones and debris from exposing bodywork to rust.

  • Low Maintenance: Easy to clean, doesn’t chip, peel or degrade under harsh conditions.

  • OEM Branding: Can be co-designed with logos or trim features for added brand visibility.

Best Fit:

Popular among commercial vehicle segments and SUV OEMs producing vehicles for both urban and rural use. Examples include the Toyota Land Cruiser Prado, Mahindra Scorpio, and Renault Duster.
