Drainage
- Water-Permeable allows infiltration of
rainfall into the soil at the point-source,
where it is filtered and purified naturally,
recharging the groundwater. - Conserving and Preserving our natural resources.
- 100 recycled content recyclable
- Permanently stabilizes soil structure,
- While eliminating and/or reducing runoff
pollution into our lakes, rivers, and streams
(depending upon your design).

4Proven Permanent Paddock Solutions HoofGrid
is the most successful soil stabilization system
in the world, widely tested, and applied
worldwide for years.
HoofGrid is now available to American
Equestrian and Livestock industries.

6Advantages that count ...
Healthier for the horse dry footing reduces
hoof-related disease and syndromes (thrush and
abscesses), while treating tendons and joints
with care (cushion).
Safety and Traction reduces slip, trip or
fall risks due to slipping on muddy soil,
parking lots, public fairs or expos, saturated
lawns, slopes and hillsides.
Adaptive for your specific use grids may be
filled with natural earth, sand, crushed stone,
pea gravel or buckshot, stream pebbles or
grass.
Prevents Erosion Sedimentation in outdoor
arenas or turnouts, as well as in aisles or stall
runouts, footpaths, greenbelts and driveways due
to rainfall,
or due to pedestrian or vehicular traffic
of ANY kind!

9 Optimum Soil Stabilization the entire system
locks together,
creating a single contiguous
structure that reinforces the soil,
while allowing rainfall to percolate into the
earth.
No more potholes.
No more ruts.
No more quagmires or mudfests, ever again.

Stabilizes driveway surfaces keeping them free
of potholes, ruts, and erosion, minimizing or
eliminating yearly maintenance materials and
labor costs.
Prevents compaction of gravel into a
concrete-hard impervious surface. Rainfall
percolates into the ground, where the Earths
natural ecosystem filters it, recharging the
groundwater with pure water.
Simplifies foundation phase requires less
medium/materials, labor and equipment to install.
Therefore, less installation cost and very
little or no maintenance are required.

13Four grades are available HoofGrid
HoofGrid-40 HoofGrid-S50 HoofGrid HD For
most equestrian applications, the standard
HoofGrid is sufficient. Some applications
and climates may require HoofGrid HD . The
mid-grade HoofGrid-40 is a versatile, use
anywhere option. The HoofGrid-S50 has narrower
suggested applications. HoofGrid (standard)
requires . . . (1) minimum top layer depths
(1-2 inches sand, buckshot, pea gravel, etc.)
(2) some maintenance (in order to maintain the
minimum top layer, to correct shifting from wind
or rainfall) (3) sometimes a minimal sub-base
construction of gravel is advised, depending
solely upon the LOCAL soil type and structure
(usually app. 1 inch depth ask us for a
prescriptive application sheet). HoofGrid HD
(heavier industrial/military/commercial grade) .
. . . . . requirements are eliminated, or
greatly reduced. (1) Ground Preparation is
reduced, often significantly (depends upon LOCAL
factors) (2) NO topcover is ever required when
using HoofGrid HD. (reduced maintenance)
However, for the convenience of the horse owner,
often a minimal topcover is suggested
? for easy maintenance (picking or mucking the
paddock or stalls), or
? to prevent nutrients or loose feed from
falling inside the grid cells ? which will
not affect the grids ? but may make the
picking and mucking mighty difficult for the
owner.
(3) LITTLE OR NO sub-base, foundation, or
drainage work is required. (HoofGrid is the
foundation and drainage system)
