Ensure longevity
Riding arenas with a substructure are durable and extremely resilient. The surfaces are effectively reinforced with TERRA-GRID E® 35 riding arena panels.

Thanks to the large contact surfaces of the TERRA-GRID E® 35, the ground pressure is evenly distributed.
Optimum traction
The studded surface of the TERRA-GRID E® 35 riding arena tiles ensures optimum grip.
Natural water permeability
The area remains unsealed so that rainwater can seep away on water-permeable soils.
Material expansion

Installation

Laying TERRA-GRID E 35 paddock tiles

Paddock mats from novus:HM not only offer sustainable ground reinforcement, but are also easy to install using a click mechanism. Depending on your objectives, the area of application, the nature of the ground and the individual cost limit, different types of installation with and without a substructure are possible.

We will be happy to work with you to find the right solution in a personal consultation. Depending on the type of fastening, we can also support you with additional ground elements such as our high-quality geotextiles, aggregates and footings.

With substructure

3-layer system

A classic 3-layer system is the ideal surface for paddocks, riding arenas and indoor riding arenas. The one-off cost and installation effort is offset by the long-term high quality of the surface and saves the expense of recurring renovation work.

During installation, a substructure (approx. 15-45 cm thick) is created first, depending on the ground conditions and area of application. This is followed by a base layer of e.g. 4-5 cm of gravel and a separating layer of paddock slabs. They are laid with the closed side facing downwards, aligned and snapped together. The slabs are overfilled with materials such as round gravel by approx. 2 cm. The final layer is a non-slip footing, e.g. made of high-quality riding sand.
