CONTACT

The OTTO Arena team is specialised in helping you if you wish to build your own riding arena. We provide installation instructions, valuable tips from experts and, of course, support via telephone, regardless of any questions you may have during your building project. A supervisor can also assist you on site if required.

This will enable you to find out how to construct our riding surface systems in advance.

 

The OTTO-PerforatedMat™ is a riding arena mat that has been developed specifically for equestrian sports and is suitable for almost all disciplines (dressage, show- jumping, gallop tracks, lunging circle, paddock, etc.). For all other disciplines, including the "Western" riding style, please contact our team for professional advice.

 

In classic equestrian arena construction with the OTTO-PerforatedMat, we recommend installing the footing with a layer thickness of only 8 – 10 cm, measured from the top edge of the knobs. If, for whatever reason, you do not wish to install the OTTO-PerforatedMat, the footing layer needs to be raised to a thickness of approx. 12 – 15 cm.

When constructing an OTTO-Ebb&Flow arena, a layer thickness of approx. 13 cm has to be calculated to ensure the capillary effect from the subbase up into the footing. After installation, the layer thickness also amounts to approx. 10 cm measured from the top edge of the knobs.

If you have a quartz sand works in your area or specific contacts you’d like to use, please send us a sample (approx. 500 g) of the sand you want to use. We will examine the sample in our laboratory for its properties and immediately notify you whether its composition is suitable for the requirements of your riding surface.
