The Importance of a Well-Designed Arena
A successful equestrian arena relies on much more than the riding surface itself. Effective drainage, separation and filtration are essential to prevent contamination of the drainage blanket and maintain consistent riding conditions throughout the year. The Lotrak® equestrian system has been developed to help preserve these critical functions and support long-term surface performance.
By separating the riding surface from the underlying drainage layer, Lotrak® geotextiles help:
• Maintain surface consistency
• Prevent migration of fine particles
• Preserve drainage performance
• Reduce maintenance requirements
• Extend the service life of the arena
• Deliver reliable year-round riding conditions
Lotrak® 140 - For Standard Intensity
Lotrak® 140 provides an effective separation and filtration layer for private arenas and facilities experiencing lower levels of traffic and rider activity. Designed to retain the riding surface while allowing water to move freely through the construction, it delivers dependable performance for everyday equestrian use.
Lotrak® 200 - For Intermediate Intensity Use
For arenas subject to more frequent use, Lotrak® 200 offers enhanced durability and performance. Its balance of hydraulic and mechanical properties makes it an excellent choice for riding schools, training arenas and facilities where usage levels are higher.
Lotrak® 300 - For High-Intensity Use
Lotrak® 300 is our premium equestrian arena geotextile, developed for demanding applications where durability and performance are paramount. With higher puncture resistance and increased robustness, it is ideally suited to commercial arenas, competition facilities and heavily trafficked riding surfaces.
Built to Perform
Lotrak® equestrian geotextiles are engineered to deliver an effective combination of filtration, permeability and durability. Positioned between the riding surface and drainage layer, they help prevent the loss of valuable surface materials while allowing water to drain efficiently through the arena construction. The result is a more consistent riding surface that remains functional throughout changing weather conditions.
