Car camping with the Firewood Carrier Utility Mat is a pro move. Upcycled from our rugged air mattresses, the fabric is extraordinarily durable, making this eco-friendly accessory a versatile changing mat, wetsuit removal station, mobile dog bed, and more. And thanks to the heavy-duty handles, lugging logs has never been easier.
Only available for USA shipping.
Project ReRoam is our upcycling program that breathes new life into old gear. We focus on transforming old mattresses into practical, long-lasting car camping accessories. By repurposing these materials in creative and useful ways, ReRoam keeps Luno products where they belong–out of the landfill and out in the wild with campers like you.
Does the Firewood Carrier Utility Mat pack down?
Yep! You can either roll it up or fold it up to store it. It’s already pretty small laying flat, but we know how precious cargo space is when on the road.
Can the Firewood Carrier Utility Mat get wet?
Totally! Whether you’re hosing it down after a dusty adventure or you're a surfer using it as a wetsuit changing mat, the Firewood Carrier Utility Mat can get wet, no problem. Thanks to a 300-denier Oxford nylon fabric armored with a hydrophobic coating, the mat is easy to clean and exceptionally durable.
Where do you make ReRoam Gear?
Much of our ReRoam gear is stitched right in our homebase of Bend, Oregon. We’ve partnered with local seamster, Tailgate Industries, to localize production and fulfillment of our ReRoam gear, further reducing our carbon footprint.
What is the difference between upcycling and recycling?
Upcycling is the process of taking products or materials that are considered waste and repurposing them. For instance, taking an air mattress destined for the dump and stitching it into a utility mat.
On the other hand, recycling is the process of breaking down material waste into a different state to then create a new good. An example that’s becoming more and more prevalent: Plastic water bottles, which are recycled and turned into a fabric, before eventually getting stitched into a t-shirt or jacket.
Why are upcycling & recycling important?
Recycling and upcycling are different processes. Recycling breaks down a material before creating a new product, for example, sheets of aluminum that are recycled and then eventually manufactured into aluminum cans. Upcycling skips the breakdown step, and simply converts an existing product into a new one–for instance, cutting up old air mattresses and stitching them into your favorite changing mat.
Both processes essentially convert old products into new ones, and both are extremely important. Manufacturers don’t always need to create new products from virgin materials, and instead can give old materials a second life. This creates a circular, “cradle-to-cradle” means of production as opposed to a linear, “cradle-to-grave” one.
We designed this all-around utility mat to make countless outdoor scenarios more convenient. Use it as a doormat to slip your shoes off at night, a mini picnic blanket on a hike, a backcountry dog bed, or even a knee pad while you’re fixing a flat tire–the possibilities are endless!
This nifty log lugger can handle up to 40 pounds of firewood–or other gear, for that matter–and thanks to the extended, heavy-duty handles, you can tote your haul one-handed. Say sayonara to splinters!
Whether you’re pulling on your hiking boots, peeling off a soaked wetsuit, or simply changing into your PJs before crawling into your sleeping bag, a changing mat is an absolute game-changer when car camping. There’s nothing more luxurious when camping than dry, dirt-free socks, after all.
Our upcycled Firewood Carrier Utility Mat is crafted from the same 300-denier Oxford nylon fabric we use to make our award-winning mattresses. Built to last, this thick, resilient fabric can handle sand, snow, dust, dirt–you name it.
Our upcycled ReRoam line breathes new life into old gear. Our goal with the program is two-fold: keep as much material as possible out of the landfill, and provide car campers with radical, practical, eco-friendly accessories. The Firewood Carrier Utility Mat does exactly that–it’s crafted from deadstock mattresses, and it’s also quickly become one of our favorite car camping essentials!
