A cargo protecting system for a vehicle having a load-carrying bed, the system comprising:

• a support structure forming at least a portion of a frame of a vehicle;
• and
• a bed floor fixedly supported by the support structure, the bed floor including a support surface having a plurality of longitudinal extending, spaced apart raised ridges for directly supporting cargo, each ridge having elevated and angled parts and an upper part, the upper part of each ridge having an increased thickness compared to the other parts and a raised section for increased strength and rigidity of the ridge, each ridge including a wear resistant surface having a first texture disposed substantially over the entire ridge and a second texture disposed over the upper part of the ridge, the second texture being disposed at least partially over the first texture.
