Fiberforce® Equestrian Geotextile

The Fiberforce® range of geotextiles is engineered to deliver long-lasting performance in all types of equestrian arenas and gallops. Fully compatible with various riding surfaces, including specialist silica sands, it provides a reliable foundation for high-quality, durable equestrian facilities.

Fiberforce® Geotextile for Horse Arenas

Our unique manufacturing process combines needle-punching and thermal bonding to create the advanced Fiberforce® geotextile. This results in a fabric with an increased flow rate for superior drainage and a very fine pore size to prevent clogging, making it ideal for silica sand riding surfaces. While the cost of a typical 40m x 20m arena can exceed £30,000, Fiberforce® represents a small fraction of this investment. Yet, it plays a vital role in ensuring the long-term performance and longevity of your riding surface, protecting your investment for years to come.

Fiberforce® is a specialist non-woven geotextile from Geosynthetics Ltd, created for the equestrian sector. Its purpose is to form a critical separation and filtration layer beneath riding surfaces like arenas and gallops. The unique manufacturing process, combining thermal bonding and needle-punching, produces a fabric that excels at draining water while preventing the sand and stone layers from mixing or clogging. This ensures the riding surface remains stable, safe, and performs correctly for the long term, making it a fundamental component for any professional equestrian facility.
