Super Sacks of SBR Rubber Crumb for Equestrian Area Footing

We offer (4) different sized rubber crumb products for Equestrian Footing

10/20 US Mesh is small sugar or salt sized granulars that are mainly used for arenas and can be mixed up to 50% with sand of similar size.
1mm - 3mm is slightly larger sized granulars than the 10/20 US Mesh. This size product is also mainly used for arenas and can be mixed up to 50% with sand of similar size.
1/4" Grind is the most common sized granular crumb that we sell. It is mostly used in arenas but can also be used in warm-up arenas, dry lots, and turn outs. It can be use alone or mixed up to 50% with similar sized 1/4" pebbles.
1/2" - 3/4" Chunk is used in warm-up arenas, dry lots, and turn outs.

NOTE: These are just a guide to the different sizes of rubber crumb availible. Please contact your trainer and/or vet to determine which size is best suited for your application(s).

The ¼" rubber footing can be used in indoor arenas and outdoor arenas and it has excelled in cold weather climates since it doesn’t freeze. The depth usually recommended for riding disciplines such as Western/Pleasure and Dressage, is 3 1/2 to 4 inches. For those that are training horses for Grand Prix-style jumping, we recommend a more supportive depth of 5 inches. For those training race horses on tracks and gallops we recommend 6 inches of footing for proper support.

Crumb rubber is a ground rubber produced from whole tires. Our Tire Recycling utilizes both cryogenic and ambient systems to produce 250 million pounds per year of high quality crumb rubber from passenger or all black radial truck tires at four strategically located facilities throughout the USA. By reclaiming more than 33 percent of the nation’s discarded tires, means we annually transform more than 110 million tires into raw materials for smart, sustainable products that improve people’s lives. Strict quality control process assures reliability and customer satisfaction in every bag.

Rubber chips provide a modern, cushioned surface in your arena to relieve stress on horse joints. Spreading a layer of rubber chips on your arena and mixing in to the surface improves drainage, performance, and comfort while reducing dust, compaction, and fatigue.

HorseKeeping.com has an excellent article on horse footing which describes how rubber footing helps keep down dust and resists compaction.

According to an article written by Ann Compton on petplace.netscape.com, "...most who take the plunge and spend the money for rubber footing are delighted with it. The general consensus is that it is low-maintenance, dust free and resilient.".

Training and Increased Performance

Horses can train harder and longer on rubber crumb because the arena footing works with the horse, not against it. Springing off the surface rather than struggling through it allows for proper and more efficient movement. Rubber Crumb is a forgiving arena surface that reduces the chance of injury; fewer injuries and chance of breakdown keeps training sessions consistent and cuts down on expensive rehabilitation bills. The best part? All of our rubber crumb footings are for both indoor arenas and outdoor arenas!
When a horse trains on rubber crumb, they build up confidence, which leads to better, more effective training and riding sessions. The consistent arena surface responds to the horse, providing them with uniform traction during difficult movements allowing them to feel confident in taking that step or making that jump in your riding arena. The consistency of the footing reduces stumbling, and the trainer will see faster improvements because the horse is focused on the training rather than where to place a hoof.

Little to No Maintenance

One of the biggest advantages of straight Rubber Crumb is the fact that is doesn’t need to be watered, ever (when not mixed with soil or sand). Eliminating water use saves money, and especially saves time that can now be invested in riding and training. If you have a busy commercial facility, no (or little when mixed with soil or sand) watering means a lot more time for riders to train and major savings in labor cost.
Rubber crumb mixed with soil or sand increases the soil porosity, enabling water to better penetrate into the base. Many of the crumbs contain embedded cord, such as nylon, rayon, or polyester, which absorb moisture when watered. This moisture retention promots enhanced dust control in your arena, while reducing the overall frequency of watering.
Most of our customers discover how easy Rubber Crumb it is to maintain. Since the footing resists compaction and virtually eliminates tracking, much of the grooming that is necessary with other footing types disappears. We recommend a light grooming for busy barns (10-30 horses per day) once or twice a week.
In addition to grooming less, the type of groomer required for rubber crumb is much smaller, less aggressive, and costs a lot less than traditional sand/soil grooming drags.

All Weather Design

Rubber Crumb track and arena footing is all weather indoors and out. The Rubber Crumb arena footing is water resistant, causing water to run off the surface or quickly wick out of the footing to the base leaving the footing ready for riding. Customers can ride on your arena footing shortly after heavy rains and swift temperature changes. The all-weather design allows you to train longer, harder, and more often.

How much will I need?

A depth of one or two inches of rubber chips is all that is required to provide you with noticeable benefits. Deeper layers of rubber chips may be required in certain arena situations.

** SHIPPING NOTES **

Shipping prices are subject to change from the amount listed under "Calculate Shipping". We will get a special quote & your approval before we ship it to you.

The reasons are as follows:

1) Trucks (availability)and Destination are the top factors. The gas has a FSC (fuel surcharge). presently it is now 26%, but it changes often. The trucks are a large factor being thatthere is a shortage of trucks on the road and this has been happening forseveral years. Sometimes we just can not find any trucks to ship, after calling onnumerous LTL (Less Than Truckload) carriers.

2) Destination (or what the trucking business calls“lanes”) are a crucial element in the pricing. Many truckers do not want to carry a load somewhere that they can not pick upsomething on return trip.

3) The infrastructure of some states and cities (the condition of the highways).

4) If the delivery address is business or residential, that also affects the pricing.

5) If you require a special lift-gate to unload your order, there is an additional fee that has to be charged depending upon the size of the load.

6) The US government has implemented a new “Electronic Log Documentation” (ELD) law that has caused havoc in the transportation industry. Due to this new law, it’s harder to find trucks, deliveries are not delivering on time and prices have gone through the roof. Prices have doubled in some cases.

Before processing your order, we will get an exact current price quote for your order and let you know the price. You can then decide to continue or cancel the order.

NOTE: LTL shipments are at the mercy of the carriers because they haveto be trolled around with other orders and may be unloaded and loaded a coupleof times before they arrive at their destination and some truckers just find ita trial to maneuver in residential areas.

The bottom line is, shipping pricing is variable and TJB-INC has no control over it. Sometimes, the cost of shipping can cost more than the materials ordered and we apoligize for that but we are not here to make money on the shipping costs. We just want you to receive your order quickly and efficiently at the best rate possible. ... TED GREINER (CEO TJB-INC)

Customer/contactor is responsible for providing man-power/equipment to off-load super sack/pallet(s) at delivery point unless you request the lift gate service option. Lift Gate option is only availble for (3) super sacks or less. All other deliveries will require a machine capable of lifting 2,300 lbs. Failure to have a working machine available will result in a re-delivery charge to be paid by you prior to re-delivery.

NOTE: All deliveries are "Curbside" ONLY. The delivery drivers will not move the shipment past the curbline. Delivery trucks DO NOT come with a forklift. Truck & trailer only!

Orders to Canada may be slightly more. We will get an exact quote & contact you before processing order. Canadian customers responsible for duties & import taxes.

Frequently Ased Questions about Rubber In-Fill Materials

Will the crumb rubber float away when it rains?

No, your crumb rubber in-fill material will not float away when it rains. The high density of crumb rubber will cause it to stay in place.

Is Rubber in-fill safe?

According to the EPA, crumb rubber in-fill can be used as ground cover under playground equipment and “possesses high impact attenuation/ability to absorb the energy from falling children and objects.”
Also the use of crumb rubber on athletic playing fields as a soil additive can increase the “resiliency of the field thereby decreasing injuries.” (See additional information below)

Installation Tips

Spreading rubber grinds is best done by hand. It is not possible to use a drop spreader with rubber grinds as it is with most other infill materials. The rubber crumb is too big for most drop spreaders and has a tendency of clogging the spreader. However, due to its characteristics it is much easier to disperse once it is on the turf.

To get started, fill your wheelbarrow with the rubber crumb material. Position the wheelbarrow in a needed area, reach in with both hands and grab as much as you can carry. Simply throw the rubber crumb onto the turf until you have the entire area filled. You will want enough infill material to fill in between the fibers without completely covering the tips of the fiber. It is all right if some areas have more infill than others at this point of the process. You will be brushing the infill in with a power broom or stiff bristle broom to even out the rubber grinds.

Brooming the rubber grinds is a required step to work the infill down into the fibers of the turf. It also helps disperse the infill and even out the high spots created during the application of the rubber grinds.

Using a stiff bristle broom, use short brisk strokes against the grain to work the rubber down into the fibers and to the backing material. Continue brooming until the blades are standing up and you have an even layer of rubber.

Use short brisk strokes to work the rubber into the fibers.
Continue brooming until the blades are standing upright.

The final step of the infill process is wetting down the turf with a garden hose. This helps drop the infill material down into the fibers and to the base. It also helps clean excess dust and debris left behind during the infill process.

Simply hose down the area side to side with your garden hose. Make sure to wet down the entire area to ensure all infill materials are settled. Repeat as often as necessary.

Current Health Concerns about Rubber Crumb Materials

(there has been a lot of news coverage so we wanted to address the concerns as best as we can with current information)

Q: What materials can be found in the artificial turf crumb rubber?
A: The crumb rubber used in artificial turf is mainly composed of recycled tires, which contain man-made and natural rubber. Certain materials have been identified in the crumb rubber, including:

polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs)
metals, such as zinc and iron
volatile organic compounds (VOCs)
latex

Q: Can people be exposed to the materials found in crumb rubber?
A: There are three possible ways that people might be exposed:

Accidentally ingesting small amounts of material by placing fingers in the mouth or not washing hands before eating after playing on the fields.
Breathing in dust created from playing on the field or from vapors given off by the turf.
Direct skin contact with the crumb rubber.

Q: Are there any health concerns related to crumb rubber exposure?
A: Several scientific research studies carried out in the United States and Europe have examined the chemical composition of crumb rubber. These studies have assessed the potential exposures and health risks for people using turf fields. Based on these research findings, health risks are unlikely from exposure to the levels of chemicals found in artificial turf. However, there are limitations to these studies and more research is needed.

Q: Can people be exposed to these chemicals from other sources?
A: Many of the chemicals found in crumb rubber are very common in the urban environment. People can be exposed through normal daily activities including breathing air, eating food, and by getting dirt or dust on their skin. For example, rubber dust is created from the wear and tear of tires on roads and is a source of city air and soil pollution. PAHs come from the exhaust of engines, smoke from fires and cigarettes, dust-containing soot, urban soil and char-broiled foods. Gasoline, paint, building materials, trees and many other sources release VOCs into the air.

Playgrounds and Synthetic TurfFields

There have been concerns about the health implications of the use of recycledtire crumb in playgrounds and in synthetic turf athletic fields. In response tothese concerns, EPA conducted a Scoping-Level Field Monitoring Study ofSynthetic Turf Fields and Playgrounds. The final report wasissued in 2009 and concluded that on average, concentrations of componentsmonitored in this study were below levels of concern. To supplement this study’slimited data, EPA met with state and local representatives in 2010 to reviewother available field monitoring studies including a 2010study conducted by the state of Connecticut which concluded thatexposures and risks were not elevated (relative to what is commonly found inoutdoor air) for either children or adults using the fields.

A 2010 report(PDF) (13 pp, 238.24 K) by the California Department of Resources Recycling andRecovery examined the possible human health risks of outdoor athletic fieldsmade from artificial turf containing recycled crumb rubber with respect to skinabrasions, bacteria harbored by the turf, inhalable particulate matter, andvolatile organic compounds. The report concluded these fields do not pose aserious public health concern, with the possible exception of an increased skinabrasion rate on artificial turf relative to natural turf.

At this point, EPA does not believe that the field monitoring data collectedprovides evidence of an elevated health risk resulting from the use of recycledtire crumb in playgrounds or in synthetic turf athletic fields. Ultimately, theuse of recycled tire crumb or any other playground materials is a state andlocal decision.

Installation Tips

You should contact www.ecolawnapplicator.com to see if they have sold a machine to a rental center or contractor close to you that you can hire or rent the spreader from. If you do not have access to a spreader from Ecolawnapplicator then spreading rubber grinds is best done by hand. It is not possible to use a drop spreader with rubber grinds as it is with most other infill materials. The rubber crumb is too big for most drop spreaders and has a tendency of clogging the spreader. However, due to its characteristics it is much easier to disperse once it is on the turf.

Use short brisk strokes to work the rubber into the fibers.
Continue brooming until the blades are standing upright.

Simply hose down the area side to side with your garden hose. Make sure to wet down the entire area to ensure all infill materials are settled. Repeat as often as necessary.
