Why Horse Owners Choose Slip-Not Over Cheaper Alternatives
- 23mm Thickness – Not the Cheaper 16mm: Most competitors sell 16mm or 22mm mats. Our 23mm mats provide 44% more rubber than 16mm alternatives, meaning superior shock absorption for joints, better mud containment, and a mat that won't roll or shift under hoof traffic.
- Eliminates Muddy Gateways Instantly: 20mm drainage holes channel water away from the surface – no more poached, boggy entrances that damage horses' hooves and legs. Used by livery yards, riding schools and private owners across the UK.
- Anti-Slip in All Conditions: Textured surface grips in rain, frost and mud – prevents slips for horses and handlers. Safe for barefoot horses, shod horses, ponies and handlers in wellies.
- Grass Grows Through Naturally: Large 20mm holes allow grass to establish – the mat becomes invisible once vegetation grows through, preserving the natural appearance of your field or paddock entrance.
- Installs in Under 30 Minutes: No groundwork or specialist tools needed. Lay directly onto existing grass or hardcore. Available with optional ground pegs & connecting ties for slopes or very high-traffic areas.
- All-Weather, Year-Round Performance: UV-stabilised, frost-proof rubber operates from -20°C to +50°C. Designed for British weather – won't crack, warp or degrade after freeze-thaw cycles.
- Low Maintenance: Self-draining honeycomb design stays clean. Simply pressure wash or hose down when needed – no chemicals required.
- Eco-Friendly & Responsible: Made from 100% recycled tyres – keeping rubber out of landfill. Trusted by UK councils, local authorities and equestrian centres.

How to Install – 3 Simple Steps
Step 1 – Prepare: Mow grass to 50–75mm. Remove large stones. For hardcore, level and compact the surface. For slopes, choose the variant with pegs and ties.
Step 2 – Lay: Position mats in your chosen area. Butt edges together tightly for seamless coverage. Insert ground pegs through drainage holes if using the pegs-and-ties variant. The whole area can be covered in under 30 minutes.
Step 3 – Done: Mats are immediately ready to use. Grass will begin to grow through the holes within a few weeks, anchoring the mat further and creating a natural, established appearance.
