A washed, screened sand for horse arena footing — grain size cut so the surface rides consistent, drains freely and keeps the dust down.
How it’s made
Arena footing lives or dies on the grading: too fine turns to dust, too coarse rides loose. Ours is washed clean and screened to an even cut from an inland deposit — no salt, sharper grain, and consistent load after load, so the surface you top up matches the surface you laid.
A footing has to give underfoot without going loose, hold together without going hard, and drain after rain rather than staying greasy through the whole week that follows. It also has to behave the same in February as it does in July, because a horse learns the surface and notices when it changes.
This comes out of an inland deposit rather than off a coastline, so there's no seawater in its history and no salt in the product. Salt draws moisture and carries into everything around it, which is not something you want in a surface horses work on daily or in the ground beneath it.
MRP Sand Quarry is an inland sand quarry — nothing is dredged off a coastline. Inland deposits hold a far wider range of grain sizes than coastal sand, so we screen and cut sizes from ultra fines right up to coarse, and because the sand has never been near seawater there's no salt in it. Tell us the size the job needs and we cut to it.
