Footing and Fencing

GGT Footing

GGT FOOTING is the choice for safety and soundness at horse show venues

 GGT Footing®, the equestrian division of Polysols Inc, makers of high-quality fiber and geotextile equestrian footing amendments, is the premium choice for world class horse show venues across the USA and is the proud Annual Title Sponsor for Swan Lake Stables in 2025.

GGT 1Backed by over 20 years of collaboration with arena builders and scientific research, GGT Footing®'s high-quality fiber and geotextile blends—made from 100% polyester—offer the most durable, cost-effective, and eco-friendly solution for equestrian surfaces, helping to prevent lameness and reduce vet bills by-

• supporting your horse’s joints and ligaments

• reducing dust, increasing water storage capability

• improving the life span of the arena sand & surface for optimal performance

— and much more!

GGT-Footing provides a variety of fiber percentages in their blends: • 50% fiber: high performance/ competition surfaces

• 30% fiber: Jumping

GGT 2• 15% fiber: Lower levels of dressage

GGT Footing® has a blend to meet all your surface needs with many affordable options available.

Regular maintenance of fiber and geotextile amended surfaces is vital to keep your arenas in perfect shape.

 
GGT Footing® requires consistent deep watering to maintain stability, reduce dust, and ensure uniform moisture.

Watering frequency depends on the weather conditions of outdoor arenas and on the air temperature and humidity level indoors and can be monitored with a moisture meter.

GGT 3GGT Footing® requires a synthetic fiber compatible arena conditioner with adjustable tines and teeth and a roller to keep footing properly mixed.

From 57" ATV-compatible models to 98" tractor models with updated standard features, we offer an arena conditioner for every surface maintenance need.

For comprehensive consultation and further information on geotextile additives, please call Barb, GGT Footing East Coast Retail Account Manager at 864-804-8664 or visit: www.ggtfooting.com.

Belmondo – the Highest Quality Rubber on the Market

EROSION CONTROL.

belmonddo 1We all know erosion around horse barns is a problem whether it’s at the doorways, gates, or waterers, it can be dangerous.

Which is why Belmondo makes the Flix mud control mat.

It is a 4’x6’ industrial outdoor horse mat.

It can be installed with no subsurface and easily adapts to gravel, grass, or mud.

It is weatherproof, UV resistant, and made with vulcanized rubber.

The surface is slip resistant and the mats are incredibly durable.

The Flix mat can be part of your Best Management Practice for erosion control.

But the team at Belmondo didn’t stop with just one excellent mat!

They have a line of horse mats for every application.

belmonddo 2Stalls, Walkways, Washbays, Horse Walkers, Slopes, Trailer Ramps, Recovery Pens, and of course muddy areas.

One of the most common Belmondo products is the Belmondo Trend mat.

It is designed to use as a stall mattress.

It is 1” thick with a grid on the bottom side of the mat to provide an air cushion which results in ultimate softness.

Trend has a virgin rubber top which makes it slip resistant and very comfortable.

Every stall mat Belmondo makes has four interlocking sides and is heavy enough that they LAY FLAT AND STAY FLAT.

By using stall mats your bedding costs are reduced and your horse more comfortable.

Belmondo Rubber products are made in Germany, where the Kraiburg/Belmondo factory puts their focus and resources into producing the highest quality rubber on the market.
