When looking for approved carpet fibre equestrian surfaces, whether you’re a dressage rider or show jumper, the options can seem overwhelming. This is especially so following the latest change in legislation and subsequent withdrawal of the RPS 248, prohibiting the use of waste carpet within equestrian surfaces,
Thankfully, Foley’s Equestrian Surfaces have made the decision for your arena surface easier than ever thanks to our approved carpet fibre equestrian surfaces. How? By developing approved carpet fibre surfaces that aren’t just environmentally approved but also safe, stable and supportive.
Leading Supplier Of Approved Carpet Fibre Equestrian Surfaces
Here at Foley’s Equestrian Surfaces, we are proud suppliers of virgin carpet fibre, providing arena footing that’s not only environmentally approved but perfectly functional as arena surfacing, surfacing for gallops, lunge pens and even turnout paddocks.
But what makes our approved carpet fibre surfaces so popular and why should you consider Foley’s Equestrian Surfaces over other competitive brands? Let us explain…
Virgin Carpet Fibre – NOT WASTE CARPET
First and foremost, it’s important to note that our approved carpet fibre equestrian surfaces are produced specifically for equestrian surfaces using virgin carpet fibre, not waste carpet fibre. As we mentioned before, we were in full support of the withdrawal of RPS 248 for the simple fact that waste carpet isn’t and never was suitable for equestrian use. We have only ever used virgin carpet to ensure the cleanest and safest surfaces possible.
Low Maintenance Equestrian Carpet Fibre
While there is no surface out there that’s considered zero maintenance, our approved carpet fibre equestrian surfaces are as low maintenance as they can get. Minimal upkeep is required to ensure your arena surface remains as supportive as the day the bought it. Minimal harrowing will ensure your surface is spread evenly and random checks throughout the entire arena will tell you whether your base is remaining stable or moving your surface to deeper areas over time. Don’t forget, a good base is worth its weight in gold.
Safe & Stable Surfaces
Our surfaces provide a safe and stable surface for both dressage and jump work. It allows for full and stable movement of the hoof as it moves through its three stages, ensuring minimal concussion where possible as well as minimal slipping. Regardless of the intensity you train with, whether you’re jumping your horses multiple times a week, having multiple livery lessons throughout the day or even lunging multiple horses rigorously, our surfaces will stand up to the test of time.
Resistant To Frost & Well Draining
One of the benefits Foley’s approved carpet fibre equestrian surfaces is famous for is its ability to resist freezing in even the coldest temperatures. This means even in minus 10 degrees and further, your surface will not freeze and will remain rideable with your virgin carpet fibre moving as it should and resisting the dangers of freezing solid. Add to this its ability to aid with drainage, leaving you with a flood free arena or lunge pen and it’s no surprise that our surfaces are chosen time and again for these specific benefits.
