%%Natural turf is the best surface for a horse to run or jump on. How can an arena attain a natural turf consistency using the existing soil? You can get pretty close by adding grass roots. StaLok Fiber is a synthetic fiber that mimics a natural grass root. Once blended into the arena, StaLok Fiber creates a network structure, similar to a turf root zone. With the fiber’s flexible strength multiplied across the network, impact can be spread- increasing the arena’s load bearing capacity.

StaLok Fiber maintains the network structure despite rain or drought, and provides resistance to the surface where impact occurs. Its like a cushion that makes the arena safer and easier for the horse no matter what the weather throws at it. Cushion is crucial with the world’s greatest athletes digging into the arena. A horse can jump higher or run quicker on a hard surface like concrete, but it won’t last long. Conversely, a soft surface not only slows the horse, but has long term damaging effects. The right cushion provides the horse with the right amount of firmness to jump or run on, without becoming too hard- just like natural turf.

%Mix StaLok Fiber yourself or get it Premixed with a customized track blend. StaLok Fiber provides cushion and load bearing strength to your arena, but works even better in conjunction with Stabilizer. Please call and discuss further with our arena representative.%
