We manufacture only the best roof top tent on the market:
Best Quality;Best Design;Best Delivery Time.
The “Pro” Choice: This is not an entry-level product. It targets the “Buy Once, Cry Once” customer who values durability and convenience above all else.
Higher Ticket, Higher Margin: While the wholesale cost is higher than single-arm models, the retail perceived value is double. You can command a premium price ($600 – $800 retail) by marketing the “Freestanding” feature.
Perfect Pairing: Because it covers the full side of the vehicle, it pairs perfectly with our [Hard Shell Roof Top Tents], creating a seamless “Basecamp” setup along the vehicle’s flank.
The Truss Difference: We use a boxed aluminum frame design (like a bridge truss). This geometry provides immense strength-to-weight ratio, preventing the arms from sagging under their own weight.
One-Person Setup: Because you don’t have to fiddle with legs, one person can deploy this awning in seconds. Just swing it out and strap it. Done.
Hidden Legs: We do include integrated telescopic legs tucked inside the arms. Why? Because in high winds or rain (water weight), even a freestanding awning should be supported. We give you the option.
Side Wall Kit: Upsell our [Awning Walls] to turn this open shade into a wind-proof shelter.
Lighting: The truss arms have channels perfect for mounting our [LED Light Strips].
Mounting: Requires sturdy mounting points. Recommend our [Heavy Duty Roof Racks].
In the competitive overland market, generic gear gets ignored. Camp Auto Parts helps you build a distinctive awning brand with flexible customization options. From heavy-duty hinges to custom fabric colors, we engineer shade solutions that define your brand.
Customization Menu:
Logo Branding: Screen printing on the awning canvas and travel cover (High visibility for your brand).
Fabric Options: Choose from 420D Oxford (Lightweight) to 280G Poly-Cotton (Heavy Duty).
Hinge Engineering: Upgrade to our Aluminum Alloy Knuckle Hinge for superior wind resistance.
Modular Add-ons: Custom zippers to attach Annex Rooms or Shower Curtains.
Turn Every Camp Site into a Billboard
Unlike roof tents (where the logo is often hidden), car awnings are massive billboards. A deployed 270° awning offers over 10 square meters of branding space.
Travel Cover Printing: Your logo is visible even when the car is driving on the highway.
Canvas Printing: Your logo is the center of attention at every campsite.
Technology: We use UV-resistant ink that won’t fade under the Australian or Arizonan sun.
Beyond Standard Khaki: Create a Signature Look
Don’t settle for the same “factory grey” as everyone else. Camp Auto Parts offers Pantone color matching for bulk orders.
Tactical Series: Black, Olive Drab, Coyote Tan.
Lifestyle Series: Sand, Grey, Orange.
Mix & Match: Combine a Black travel cover with a Tan inner canvas for a premium two-tone look.
Designed by Our Overland Engineering Team
Awnings fail because of wind. We design ours to survive. Customize the structural integrity to meet your market’s demands.
Freestanding Mode: We can reinforce the arms to allow “Pole-Free” usage in calm weather.
Arm Length: Custom lengths (2m, 2.5m) to fit specific vehicles (e.g., Short bed trucks vs. Long SUVs).
LED Integration: Built-in LED light strips in the awning arms (a high-value selling point).
Backplate: Universal heavy-duty aluminum backplate fits 99% of roof racks.
Fast Setup. Zero Hassle.
Anti-Pool Design: We add adjustable tension poles to create a slope, preventing rainwater from pooling on top.
Heavy Duty Zippers: YKK or SBS zippers ensure the travel cover never jams, even when dusty.
Blackout Coating: Optional silver/black coating on the underside for 100% UV block and cooler shade temperatures.
The “Long-Box” Protection Standard
Car awnings are long and thin (2m – 2.5m), making them notorious for getting bent during shipping. Camp Auto Parts uses a specialized “Hard-Tube” Packaging System:
Double-Wall Carton: Extra thick K=K cardboard.
End-Cap Protection: Hard plastic caps on both ends to prevent crushing.
Internal Strapping: The awning is strapped inside the box so it doesn’t slide.
Result: <0.5% shipping damage rate for LCL and Courier shipments.
At Camp Auto Parts, one of the largest car awning manufacturers in China, we offer factory-direct pricing for 4×4 shops and overland brands.
Here’s a transparent breakdown of your sourcing costs:
Design Fee
Minimal fee for custom logo printing (screen printing on canvas/cover) or custom mold opening for unique hinges.
Shipping Fee
Awnings are long cargo (2m-2.5m). We optimize packaging to fit standard pallets, reducing LCL/FCL sea freight costs.
Miscellaneous Fee
Standard export documentation and port handling charges (FOB Ningbo/Shanghai).
Sample Product Fee
Want to test product quality? We offer low-cost samples before bulk production.
30% T/T Fee
Start production with a 30% down payment. Secure and efficient.
70% Final Fee
Pay the balance once production is complete, before shipment.
Our goal is to help you get competitive wholesale prices without compromising on quality or service. Whether you’re a brand owner, distributor, or e-commerce seller — we’ll make global sourcing simple and predictable.
Speed is crucial for seasonal products. Our automated cutting and sewing lines ensure fast turnaround for retractable awnings, 180°, and 270° models.
Once the deposit is paid, we cut the aluminum profiles and sew the heavy-duty 420D/600D fabric. Custom logos are printed at this stage. (15-20 days)
We assemble the arms, hinges, and fabric. Every awning is fully opened to test tension and ease of setup. (5 days)
Awnings are long and prone to bending. We use double-wall cartons + hard plastic end caps to ensure zero damage.
We arrange sea freight. Due to the length, awnings are best shipped via sea (LCL/FCL), not air express.
From inquiry to delivery, we’ll keep you updated throughout the process.
We don’t just check if it opens; we check if it lasts.
We verify the wall thickness of aluminum poles (1.2mm-2.0mm) and the hardness of the alloy hinges to prevent snapping in the wind.
The fabric undergoes a hydrostatic head test (PU2000mm+) and UV resistance check to ensure it won’t fade or leak.
For 270° awnings, the hinge bears all the weight. We stress-test every hinge to ensure smooth 270-degree rotation without sagging.
We inspect the heavy-duty PVC travel cover and zippers. A jammed zipper ruins the product, so we test every single one.
✅ **Result**: Zero-defect delivery is our goal. Each wholesale car side awnings goes through our rigorous process before leaving the factory.
We are your shade solution partner.
Heavy Duty Hinges: We use upgraded alloy knuckles, not cheap plastic, reducing warranty claims.
Custom Sizes: From compact 1.4m rear awnings to massive 2.5m side awnings.
Integrated Lighting: We can embed LED strips into the awning arms for a premium touch.
DDP Shipping: We handle the complex logistics of shipping “over-length” cargo to your door.
Don’t just take our word for it. Watch how Camp Auto Parts engineers durability into every car top awnings. From robotic aluminum welding to our rigorous waterproof rain chamber tests, we provide full transparency into our ISO 9001 production process.
