Why the triple combination?

Memory foam has an open-cell structure that reacts to weight and temperature by 'moulding' to the body of the horse, helping relieve pressure points.

Memory Foam was originally developed by the NASA space program in 1966 to ease the pressure of G-forces on astronauts during space shuttle take offs. It never ended up being used in the space program, however memory foam did eventually find its way into medical settings where it was used to relieve bed-bound patients suffering from various pressure sores. It was also discovered that patients who slept on memory foam mattresses generally woke up better rested with less pains and aches than those who did not.

Memory foam in human products is normally always used in combination with other types of foam.  For example in a bed, you need a mattress under the memory foam or you wouldn't get the right support for your back.

Riding a horse is very different from sleeping on a mattress or sitting in a chair. The levels of impact protection, heat dissipation and moisture evaporation required are much greater in equine sports. Using memory foam by itself would not give enough impact protection to the horse’s back. So the solution was to combine it with high-density shock-absorbing foam and a layer of low-density open-cell foam to ensure the best protection of the horse’s back.

Although memory foam feels very comfortable to the rider, the protection of the horse’s back is always the number one factor in our product design. By combining the three levels of protection in ECOGOLD’s Memory Foam Triple Protection™ Half Pad, we have created a winning combination for your horse’s back!
