You know that feeling? You load your dog in, drive to the supermarket, and realise there's no room left for shopping. The dog crate sits there — massive, immovable — and won't come out easily. For years, this was the reality for every dog owner who wanted to transport their dog safely.
Until the 1one1 Origami arrived.
The problem with classic car crates
A good dog crate for the car isn't a luxury. In an emergency stop or a collision, a sturdy, well-secured crate protects not only the dog but also the driver and passengers.
Well-known brands like 4pets and Thule offer excellent safety, but have one major drawback: they are permanently in your boot. They are heavy, awkward to remove and take up all your boot space. Anyone who takes their dog daily and has a family knows the frustration.
The revolution: flat in seconds
The name Origami refers to the Japanese art of folding — and that is exactly what this crate does. At the touch of a button it folds down to a height of 12 cm in seconds. No tools, no fuss.
In practice this means:
- Morning: dog safely to work — crate unfolded
- Lunchtime: grocery shopping — crate folded, full boot space available
- Evening: trip with the dog — crate set up again in seconds
But what about safety?
This is exactly where the Origami beats its competitors. Many foldable crates are made of soft nylon or thin wire mesh — in a crash they offer little protection. The Origami has a sturdy aluminium frame with technical mesh panels and a lock that can be operated with one hand. The two included tension straps secure it to the lashing points in the boot.
The result: the crate is crash-tested by TÜV. A size L Origami was tested with a 55 kg dog dummy at 55 km/h.
