It is recommended that all Aerborn products be washed at a temperature no higher than 40 degrees centigrade. Some horse's show an allergic reaction to manmade detergents, therefore Aerborn suggests that you use non-biological washing powders, or mild soap intended for delicate fabrics. To prolong the life of your Aerborn equipment and for the safety of the horse & rider check all your equipment regularly, examining stitching & fittings. An early repair can prevent more extensive damage. Extend the life of fittings by wiping clean regularly & lubricating occasionally with a drop of oil.

The Cushion Web Range - Cushion Web washes well in a machine & can be dried on radiators. However, caution should be taken as the heavy-duty metal fittings can damage the drum of your washing machine. Either hand wash in warm soapy water or cover fittings & buckles. (Tip: Old socks & tights tied over the fittings will protect your washing machine.) Wipe all fittings dry after washing. Leave item to dry naturally or near a radiator.

Stable rugs, coolers, fleece products, quilted saddlecloths & numnahs - All of these products including the Pegasus, the Black Watch Nevada & the Insulite Rugs wash well at 30-40 degrees centigrade. Dry naturally, away from heat.


Waterproof exercise sheets, the Munroe range, saddle covers, tailguards & travel boots - These products can be washed in a machine at 30-40 degrees but care must be taken as spinning can permanently crease the fabrics. However, most modern machines have a slow or half spin option which can be used. All of these items wash easily by hand & dry naturally rapidly. Dry the linings first with the product inside out before airing the outer fabric.

New Zealands & Turn out rugs - As these rugs are necessarily bulky, most outdoor rugs do not fit comfortably in domestic washing machines. There are many professional rug cleaning services currently available - Ask your local Saddler for details. In the iterim, the outer fabric of outdoor rugs can be brushed & sponged clean & linings brushed clean. Metal fittings, buckles & eyelets should be kept clear of mud (using a matchstick) wiped clean & oiled occasionally.

The Aerborn Guarantee of Quality - As Aerborn is very proud of the quality of their fabrics & workmanship, all Aerborn products should reach you in excellent condition. Aerborn will exchange any faulty products without hesitation (via your retailer on provision of a receipt). Aerborn reserves the right to refuse to exchange the product if it has been subjected to fair wear and tear or has been damaged as a result of an accident.

And finally.... Accidents do happen, equipment wears, so repairs are sometimes necessary. Many local Saddlers offer a rug repair service. Please ensure that equipment for repair is clean before you take it in to be mended. Saddleries have the right to refuse to repair dirty rugs, as legally staff are not allowed to handle soiled equipment. (Health & Safety at Work Act).
