The featured Amazon option is ECOGARD XC11577 Transit Cabin Filter.
Cabin filtration belongs to the vehicle side of my camper project. My floor-preparation diary documents the dust and residue that accumulated as I loaded tools into the van and drove out to work on it.
Where it fits my build
The preparation session began with sweeping the cargo area. I followed with a mop and floor-cleaner spray, and used a towel and Simple Green on the walls.
For material that remained stuck to the floor, I used wire-brush and nylon-brush drill attachments. I dried the cleaned floor with a towel after working through those stages.

My build notes
The cabin-filter purchase is part of my maintenance kit. My documented build experience here is the repeated movement of tools and the cleanup of the interior before sound deadening.
The filter comparison focuses on product format and cross-referenced part numbers. The photographs show my cargo-floor preparation, a separate part of getting the van ready for its interior build.
The loose dirt, stuck-on residue and final drying were separate preparation jobs.
