The most versatile and useful rug you'll ever own!

WHY THERMATEX
Thermatex rugs help maintain your horse at a constant, even temperature aiding in keeping his coat in show condition and his muscles supple and relaxed.  The knitted fabric will adapt and mould to your horse's shape, accommodating the changes in your horses shape at various levels of fitness and muscle development.

The rug does not absorb moisture, it wicks it from your horse's coat while staying dry itself.  After use, with a quick shake, the rug dries out rapidly and can be stored - no more soaking towels and cotton rugs.

Thermatex rugs are individually hand cut for a perfect fit, pre shrunk, are fully machine washable (will fit in domestic machines) and will retain their shape and quality appearance for years.  The Thermatex range carries a 2 year manufacturer’s warranty.

The rugs are soft and luxurious, yet are light and easy to handle. Thermatex rugs are easy to store as they are not bulky and will not flatten.
