Installing Rubber Mulch As Equestrian Footing

Arena Fill is made entirely from recycled tires and is granulated into a 3/8” nugget that is 99.9% wire and contaminate free. With the proper base and mixture of sand, Arena Fill can add years of riding pleasure to any riding surface. There are many formulas used when constructing an arena, but some of the most important things to consider are:

  1. The base should consist of either a compacted well-graded aggregate or clay.
  2. The sand used should be screened and cleaned and be a medium course, hard, quartz sand. Angular in shape versus a rounded river sand. Machined angular  sand lays flat and will not slide like river sand. We recommend a 1” layer.
  3. The top dressing for the arena can come from many different types of materials  but the one that will last the longest and provide the most protection is rubber. We recommend 1 to 1-1/2" of arena fill. Some recommend 2". Do your homework to make sure it is applied correctly. You don't want too soft of arena footing.
