In response to the trend toward the fitting of seat mounted air bags to an ever wider range of vehicles, Town and Country Covers Ltd have launched a new product in the range of protective covers. Called the Air Bag Compatible cover, or ABC, this is a universal fit designed for a wide variety of modern car and commercial vehicle seats.

The ABC is the result of a year long research and development programme carried out in-house and at one of Britain's largest independent transport test facilities.

Part of the testing programme used in the product development can be seen by clicking on the image above. This will take you to video footage of an explosive deployment of an air bag in a seat fitted with this new cover. This was filmed using an Ultra High Speed camera operating at 3000 frames per second and is replayed here in slow motion.

Before fitting a seat cover to a modern vehicle it is vital that you establish whether or not it has seat mounted air bags. Conventional seat covers will impede the proper deployment of these important safety devices and may increase the risk of injury or death to a vehicle occupant in the event of an accident.

Protect your seats and protect your passengers.

The material used in the manufacture of our car and van seat covers is high tenacity polyester with a polyurethane backing which is unique to our product range.

This material is waterproof but has a weave designed to allow air to circulate more freely between the seat cover and occupant which leads to reduced sweating and a noticeably cooler feel when exposed to sun.
