HoofGrid™ - the original equestrian footing & flooring grid system -
permanently solves your muddy paddocks problems.
|
The most successful ecogrid soil stabilization system in Europe, widely tested and applied worldwide for years, is now available to the American livestock and equine industries. ecoraster
|
The setup . . .
Compressive Strength - up to 35 tons/ square foot.
|
The problem . . .
No more muddy paddocks, turnouts or drylots. Ever!
|
How it works . . . Working on the ‘snowshoe principle,’ the grids disperse the weight of the stock over a larger surface area (effectively, 689 square inches for a four-legged animal).
|
The solution . . .
Perfect paddocks all year round.
|
How strong was that?
|
During installation, maintenance, or normal usage, earthmoving equipment, tractors, steamrollers or fully loaded dump trucks may be driven on top of the grids.
|
Because the entire systems interlocks,
|
for the horse or steer to sink into the mud, theoretically it would need to weigh about 160,000 lbs. or more.
|
Permanently retire from your paddock improvement career,
|
and forever forget the ‘spread 6-12 inches of gravel and replace regularly’ system. The grids permanently separate the top layer from the ground sub-base, preventing intermingling of the layers. In many conditions, no foundation work is required. In the rest, much less stone is required, and never needs replaced!
|
Strong, Flexible and durable!
|
The system is manufactured from reinforced PE (Polyethylene). It retains its shape in climate extremes from -58 to +194 degrees Fahrenheit while remaining flexible.
|
Year-round arena use!
|
|
For most equestrian applications the HoofGrid™ Std Duty is usually sufficient for footing-type applications requiring a structural seperation layer.
Surface stabilization usually requires HoofGrid™ 40 or H/D. In those cases requiring heavy-duty grids, the extra cost per units may offset by the decreased foundation requirements (sub-base), top layer and maintenance costs.
