Melcourt Industries, whose reputation for high quality, natural all-weather riding surfaces for horses has been built on superior knowledge of timber technology and close co-operation with leading professionals in Eventing and Racing, have posted vastly expanded information on product selection, installation and maintenance on its web site.

“Many top trainers and riders are aware of the technical merits of our products,” says Andy Chalmers, Melcourt Sales and Marketing Director. “Our web site now makes some of that information available to anyone who loves horses and who has access to a computer.” 

The restructured and expanded section of the Melcourt web site dealing with equestrian products is very easy to navigate and gives detailed information on choosing the right product for outdoor uses such as gallops and for indoor applications such as arenas and schools. Detailed information is also given on correct on-site installation as well as tips on simple daily, weekly, and six-monthly maintenance. 

”The welfare and comfort of both horse and rider are our first considerations,” says Andy Chalmers. “After that we put economy of use at the top of our list. Equi-chip™ and Equi-fibre™ surfaces have proved over the past 20 years to be the most horse friendly and economical surface material but Melcourt have a special woodfibre with enhanced wear resistance characteristics which extend the frequency between top-up and thus reduces cost.”
