Hook and loop fasteners are used to attach interior panels, hold accessories in place, organise storage spaces and hold loose items in place inside vehicles, caravans and RVs when traveling. They are suitable for vehicle interior applications where drilling or permanent adhesives are not preferred, as they hold securely against vibration and movement. Hook and loop can mount an organiser inside a camper van, secure carpet sections in a caravan or attach a device holder in a truck cab; it’s flexible and won’t damage the vehicle.
Common use cases in Automotive, Caravan & RV
Interior Panel and Trim Mounting in Caravans
Some of the lightweight interior panels, like fabric-faced boards, foam insulation linings, decorative trim pieces, etc., are easy to attach with hook-and-loop strips and even remove panels without tools for maintenance.
Organiser and Storage Pouch Attachment
Hanging organisers, storage pouches, and gear nets can be attached to vehicle wall surfaces using adhesive hooks on the wall and a sew-on loop on the organiser. This keeps the interior tidy without permanent fixtures.
Installing Carpet and Matting
Carpet on the floor or walls of caravans, motorhomes and vans can be secured by hook-and-loop strips around the edges, without the need to glue carpet down permanently.
Soft Furnishing and Cushion Hold
Decorative cushions, bunk mattress toppers and seat cushions can be attached with hook and loop to the base to keep them stationary while driving and limit the need to move them after each trip.
Dashcam and Device Mounting
Small electronics like dashcams, GPS and tablet holders can be moved from one position to another throughout the windscreen and dashboard surface with hook and loop mounting pads and without any sticky residue.
Key characteristics to look for

Recommended products for this application
The Self Adhesive Hook and Loop Roll in 25mm or 50mm is suited to most interior vehicle mounting applications where the surface is hard and smooth. For fabric and carpet attachments, the Sew On Hook and Loop (Non-Adhesive) is a perfect choice to make.
To secure heavier cargo items, storage boxes, or rigid panels in the cargo area of a van or caravan, prefer using the Heavy Duty Hook and Loop Strap. It promises reliable load management.
