Description

When it comes to creating a safe and reliable surface for horse arenas, choosing the right material is crucial. Arena Flex® Equestrian Rubber Chippings offer an exceptional solution designed to meet the needs of both horses and riders. These premium rubber chippings provide a versatile, all-weather surface that ensures comfort, durability, and safety. Whether for dressage, showjumping, or everyday training, Arena Flex® rubber chippings are an ideal choice for any equestrian surface.

Key Benefits of Arena Flex® Equestrian Rubber Chippings

  1. Enhanced Shock Absorption:

    • The Arena Flex® rubber chippings are specifically engineered to provide superior shock absorption. This feature helps to reduce the impact on horses' joints and hooves, minimizing the risk of injuries during training or competitions.
    • With a cushioned surface, horses can enjoy a more comfortable and responsive ride, allowing for smoother movements and better overall performance.
  2. All-Weather Performance:

    • One of the standout features of Arena Flex® rubber chippings is their ability to perform well in all weather conditions. Unlike traditional surfaces that can become muddy or slippery, rubber chippings maintain their stability even in heavy rain.
    • These chippings provide excellent drainage, ensuring that arenas remain usable throughout the year without the risk of waterlogged or compacted areas. This makes them ideal for equestrian facilities in regions with variable weather.
  3. Low Maintenance Solution:

    • Arena Flex® Equestrian Rubber Chippings are known for their low maintenance requirements. Once installed, they do not decompose or break down like organic materials, such as wood chips or straw, meaning they retain their effectiveness over time.
    • The non-toxic and durable nature of these chippings ensures a long-lasting surface that does not need frequent replacement. Regular raking and leveling are usually sufficient to keep the arena surface in top condition.
  4. Eco-Friendly and Sustainable:

    • Made from 100% recycled rubber, Arena Flex® chippings are an environmentally conscious choice. By repurposing used tires and other rubber products, this surface solution helps to reduce waste and lower the environmental impact.
    • Opting for recycled rubber chippings contributes to sustainability efforts while providing a premium, eco-friendly surface for equestrian activities.
  5. Improved Traction and Stability:

    • The unique composition of Arena Flex® rubber chippings provides excellent traction, helping to prevent slipping and sliding during rides. This stability is crucial for disciplines that require precision, such as dressage and jumping.
    • Riders can feel confident knowing that their horses have a secure footing, allowing for more focus on training and technique rather than surface concerns.

Ideal Applications for Arena Flex® Rubber Chippings

  1. Dressage Arenas:

    • Dressage requires precision and smooth movements, and Arena Flex® rubber chippings offer a level surface that is ideal for this discipline. The cushioning effect supports intricate footwork and transitions, ensuring that both horse and rider can perform at their best.
    • The consistency of the surface also allows for the accurate training of gaits, helping riders to develop and refine their dressage skills.
  2. Showjumping Arenas:

    • Showjumping arenas demand a surface that can absorb the impact of jumps while providing the traction needed for safe take-offs and landings. Arena Flex® rubber chippings excel in these areas, reducing strain on the horse's legs during intense jumping sessions.
    • The stable footing provided by these chippings helps horses maintain their balance, even during rapid changes in direction, making it a reliable choice for competitive showjumping.
  3. Training and Exercise Arenas:

    • For daily exercise and training sessions, having a surface that can withstand frequent use without degrading is essential. The durability of Arena Flex® chippings ensures that the arena remains in great condition despite regular workouts.
    • This makes it an excellent option for riding schools, training centers, and private equestrian facilities that need a long-lasting, multi-purpose surface.

Installation and Maintenance of Arena Flex® Equestrian Rubber Chippings

  1. Installation Tips:

    • Installing Arena Flex® rubber chippings is straightforward. It is recommended to first prepare a solid base, such as compacted sand, before spreading the rubber chippings evenly across the area. A layer of 2-3 inches is typically ideal for most equestrian surfaces.
    • Using a leveling tool, such as a drag or rake, can help ensure an even distribution of the chippings, creating a smooth and consistent riding surface.
  2. Routine Maintenance:

    • Although Arena Flex® chippings are low maintenance, some basic upkeep can help extend the lifespan of the surface. Regularly raking or leveling the chippings helps to maintain an even surface and prevents areas from becoming compacted.
    • Inspect the arena periodically to ensure that the drainage remains effective, especially after heavy rainfall. Addressing any minor issues quickly can help preserve the overall quality of the surface.
  3. Long-Term Care:

    • With proper installation and occasional maintenance, Arena Flex® rubber chippings can last for many years without needing replacement. Their durable, non-degrading nature ensures that they remain effective and visually appealing for the long term.
    • Over time, additional chippings may be added to maintain the desired depth and cushioning effect, especially in high-traffic areas of the arena.
