If you keep your horse in a stall, then you know how important proper footing is to the health of your horse.  Hoof and leg health can make or break your horse's performance and energy levels; and good footing is the key to keeping him healthy.  In order to ensure the longevity of both your horse's health and performance, you need a stall floor that will cushion and support his weight without causing unnecessary strain or damage.  Rubber flooring pavers and tiles, like those at Innovative Equine Systems, are your best bet for ensuring the health of your animal.

Whether your horse has suffered from hoof problems in the past or he's had an impeccable history of solid feet, you need to make sure his stall is safe and secure when it comes to his future.  Concrete footing can be easy to clean but can cause major damage to both hoofs and bones.  Since regular concrete and pavement doesn't give under the weight of a horse, he can easily injure the delicate bones in his legs and cause unnecessary damage to the walls of his hooves. 

Horses evolved to walk and graze on grass and soil, a natural substance that gives under the weight of their hooves and helps provide them with the footing and support they need to facilitate proper movement and blood flow.  Your horse still needs good foot support in a stall environment, which is why natural rubber is the best choice for stall floors.  The natural give and support of rubber tiles and pavers help cushion the weight of your horse, giving him the strength and softness he needs to promote proper hoof health and bone strength. 

Not only will your horse be happier with softer footing, he'll also be safer.  Natural rubber tiles, like those sold by Innovative Equine Systems, help support your horse whether the footing is wet or dry.  That makes these rubber tiles perfect for both standing stalls and wash stalls; since they are a permeable material and are easily washed with water.  The durability of these tiles means that they'll hold up for years under all sorts of conditions and help provide both you and your horse an environment with less bacteria and dust issues, leaving you with comfortable, safe footing that keeps both of you happy and healthy.  With natural rubber you don't have to worry about sliding or falling since the texture provides a durable cushion no matter what happens. 

This cushioning and texture not only provides safety and health, but also gives your horse confidence.  A healthy horse is a happy horse and he'll perform better as well.  This means that your horse is bound to grow and develop better confidence both in and out of the barn.  If he doesn't feel comfortable in his stall, he won't feel comfortable in the arena.  By investing in natural recycled rubber tiles from Innovative Equine Systems, you're investing in the future and health of both you and your horse.
