Green Gold
Arena Footing Made From 100% Recycled Tennis Balls
The quality of your arena’s footing plays a big role in the safety and performance of your horses. Our innive approach of grinding down landfill-bound tennis balls offers a sustainable twist to traditional arena footing.
Green Gold can help decrease your arena’s compaction while also improving the rebound and moisture retention of the soil, so you can keep your arena damp, helping control dust while also saving water!
Naturally Blends In Over Time
Don’t be alarmed by the bright neon color when Green Gold is first installed. Within months, you’ll see Green Gold naturally blend in with your existing soil and the variant color will start to fade, returning to normal in just a few months.
Even though the color has faded, the benefits of Green Gold can be measured years down the line. The average arena won’t have to retouch their arena for 2-3 years, although this could be shorter with heavy use.
