About Alu-Cab
Alu-Cab is a leader in overlanding and touring gear, known for rugged, trustworthy products built to handle the most demanding environments. From rooftop tents to awnings, they design with both durability and comfort in mind, exactly the gear we’ve come to rely on for long journeys.
We’d been using Alu-Cab gear (roof conversion, awning, etc.) for some time, sharing lots of imagery of our Troopy build on social media, gear we genuinely love. Alu-Cab Australia had noticed, and in September, we messaged them via Instagram to invite them to join our dog rescue campaign. Their response was immediate and enthusiastic. Two days later, we had a meeting. They then coordinated with Alu-Cab HQ in South Africa, and it all came together smoothly.

The experience with Alu-Cab
Working with the team at Alu-Cab has been brilliant, fast responses, sincere support, and real enthusiasm for what we’re doing. A standout moment was realising that they had just added dog collars to their product line, and were exploring ways to help dogs just as we reached out. Felt like it was meant to be.
On the road, their gear has stood up to everything: rain, wind, dust, no complaints. Our rooftop tent and awning perform beautifully, giving us comfort and peace of mind in rough conditions.
Alu-Cab and the cause
Alu-Cab didn’t just contribute gear, they helped make the campaign possible. Their products enable faster setups, better rest, more reliable shelter and shade, which keeps us energised and able to keep focused on raising awareness and supporting the shelters. Having reliable gear means we can spend more time doing what matters, less time worrying about the basics.
They clearly care both about overlanding adventure and making a positive impact. Their values aligned with ours, which makes this partnership feel meaningful, not just transactional.
