Menage Rubber Chippings
Choosing the correct supplier of equestrian and ménage riding surfaces is paramount to the safety of both horse and rider. There are a number of tyre recycling companies in the UK claiming to offer equestrian and ménage riding surfaces with inadequate shredding facilities which can leave a potentially high contamination rate of tyre wire within the tyre chip you are purchasing.
Eco-Bark Equestrian and Ménage riding surface
In 2008 Eco-Bark installed and commissioned the latest in tyre shredding technology, allowing us to offer a suite of products to both the consumer and commercial market place.

All of our products go through rigorous quality control processes prior to leaving our Cheshire based facility ensuring that products are free from contamination
Why use a recycled product and not a new synthetic material?
We are all responsible for ensuring that as much product manufactured throughout the world is recycled, this is a major area of focus for the environment agency. Throughout the year an average of 38 million tyres are disposed and this continues to be a huge problem, we only recycle earthmoving and tractor tyres that contain no metal braiding, we process down to 22mm - 25mm premium rubber chip guaranteed to contain no metal, we are the only recycler able to reduce to this size as a car or truck tyre does not contain enough solid rubber the maximum chip size of is 18mm to 20mm, this chip is less likely to disappear in to the silica sand because of its size and is softer under the horses hooves also a softer landing in the event of falling off.

Eco-Bark are one of the most experienced recycling companies in the UK having found and built one of the most successful document and paper recycling services in the UK. .
The process
Eco Bark Equestrian and Ménage riding surface goes through the following process ensuring total satisfaction and more importantly total safety:

3 separate "shredding" process, starting at complete tyre
Following each "shred" all rubber goes through a state of the art magnetic extraction process.
Once we have shredded the full tyre to a 40mm, it is then processed through a granulation process
The granulator reduces the chip further to 22mm to 25mm chip.
Once the process is complete, we then store our equestrian product in 1 tonne bulk bags ready for delivery.

We are confident enough in our process and facilities that we welcome any visitor requests (subject to arranging a mutually convenient time) for a full inspection of our facility.

All of our products are processed in the UK and not imported from other Countries around the world, this allows us to be 100% confident in our equestrian product.
