Why go to the effort of stabilising the soil for use by horses?
Horses can express natural behaviour
Namely rolling and playing; mud prevents natural behaviours
Easier to clean surfaces
Keep horses out of the mud and dung; your footings are easier to manage
Slip resistant
Horses being active animals, creating a naturally slip resistant surface is very important
Improve land drainage
Prevent over compaction of the soil to allow natural drainage
HIT Top Clean - Heavy duty ground mats for soil stabilisation of trails, walkways, gateways, turnout and feeding areas.
The HIT Top Clean mats are designed with a raised textured surface that allows for maximum contact area with the hoof for stability and grip.
Therefore mud is prevented from sticking to the hoof and making the surface slippery. Perfect for barefoot or shod horses.
The mats also allow excess liquids to drain away between the raised profiles and around the edges of the mats. This helps to keep the footing surface clean and dry.
The HIT Top Clean mats can be installed over bare soil but for best results we recommend some ground preparation to level the surface and install a sub base for longevity.

HIT Mountain Trail - Specialist ground mat for steep trails and exercise areas
The HIT Mountain Trail mats have a multi level raised and textured surface for maximum grip to the footing surface on top. This also improves hoof traction and stability preventing too much sliding through the surface.
Underneath the raised profiles feature a 4 way pattern grips the sub base from 4 directions. This feature dramatically increases the stability of the mat.
The purpose of the HIT Mountain Trail mats is to stabilise soil in sloping trails. Also the mats can be used as a base for riding surfaces such as lunge pens and arenas.
