What are Equinox ground protection mats used for?
Equinox ground protection mats are designed to protect stabilized ground surfaces during temporary or permanent installations. They are ideal for equestrian events, competitions, temporary access roads, parking zones, and equipment storage areas. These mats help prevent ground damage from horses, vehicles, and heavy equipment while maintaining a clean, level surface.
Are Equinox mats suitable for equestrian use?
Yes, absolutely. Our mats are a popular choice for equestrian events and riding arenas. They create a stable, non-slip surface that protects grassy or sensitive terrain from wear and tear. Whether you're building a temporary warm-up ring, a horse path, or access routes for trailers and vehicles, Equinox mats are a safe and effective solution.
Can Equinox ground mats be used as a permanent solution?
Yes. While many clients use our mats for temporary installations, they are also suitable for long-term or semi-permanent setups. For example, they can be used to build durable parking areas, equipment staging zones, or maintenance paths around equestrian facilities or event venues.
How are the mats installed?
Equinox mats are easy to install thanks to a simple interlocking system. They can be placed quickly by hand or with light equipment. No special tools or foundations are needed, making them perfect for fast setups in outdoor environments like fields, paddocks, or arenas.
Are the mats reusable?
Yes. Equinox mats are built for durability and repeated use. They can be removed, relocated, and reused for future events or projects — making them a sustainable and cost-effective alternative to gravel or concrete.
What are the environmental benefits of using Equinox mats?
Equinox ground protection panels are an eco-friendly solution. They are manufactured in the USA (Miami, Florida) and are eco-designed according to circular economy principles — including reuse, recycling, and local production. Unlike concrete, they do not require heavy groundwork and can be removed without damaging the environment.
