Yes, Treadlite can be added to existing arenas. It is compatible with various types of surfaces and can be integrated into your current setup to enhance its performance and durability.

Yes, Treadlite is designed to perform well in various weather conditions. It provides excellent traction and stability, whether wet or dry, ensuring a safe riding experience year-round.

Treadlite’s rubber particles help bind the surface material, reducing the amount of dust generated during use. This creates a cleaner, healthier environment for both horses and riders.

Individual preferences vary from rider to rider and much depends upon the type of soil you have and the position of your arena. Treadlite Premium Arena Mix spreads perfectly and works well with all types of sand, limestone, crusher dust, etc. We recommend you seek the advice of your local arena contractor if you are unsure of the best surface for your needs.

 Yes, ordinary harrows work just fine and, of course, an arena rake will also work perfectly.

Treadlite surfaces require minimal maintenance compared to traditional surfaces. Regular grooming and occasional top-ups are generally sufficient to keep the surface in optimal condition.

Yes, you can. Treadlite Premium Arena Mix comes in convenient 350kg bags with sturdy handles that can easily be lifted with the forks of a tractor. The bags have a drawstring opening on the underside, allowing you to control the flow of rubber when you open it. Alternatively, if we deliver the rubber straight to you, we can do the spreading for you.

Our triple treated refinery process produces a consistently evenly sized material that we are happy to say is 99.9% metal-free. We run an extra two magnetic beds after the final process just to be sure.

Some people like to top their arena up after they’ve ridden on it for a while and have a better idea of the surface feel they want for their horse. However, whatever amount you have spread, your Treadlite Premium Arena Mix will remain in place and won’t wear away.

No. While some older types of rubber surfaces did stain horses’ legs, Treadlite’s Premium Arena surface has been triple processed and leaves no residue.

Under normal weather conditions, no. The rubber itself has irregular edges that allow it to easily bind with the sand or other surface. This, combined with the traces of fiber that remain in the rubber and absorb moisture, means that except for an extreme weather event, your rubber stays where it is put.

Depending on how often you ride on your arena and what type of riding you do, the rubber will gradually combine with the top layer of your sand surface. However, immediately after rainfall, it makes its way back to the surface again. Grooming your arena with conventional chain harrows or an arena rake quickly returns it to how it was when it was first spread.
