The unique advantages of spruce in Ecurybois products
Saddlery equipment and fittings require a choice of materials that directly impacts the durability and functionality of the products, as well as the well-being of the horses. At Ecurybois, our choice fell on spruce, a species of wood with remarkable properties, perfectly suited to the conservation of your equipment. Discover why spruce, combined with the ergonomics of our products, represents the best solution for demanding riders, attentive to the quality and health of their mounts.
The hygroscopic property of spruce: a natural asset for your stools
Unique among conifers, spruce stands out for its natural capacity for hygroscopicity, allowing it to absorb humidity from the air, unlike pine and fir, whose resin tends to waterproof cell membranes.
We chose spruce for this hygroscopic property essential to preserving the leather of your saddles. Moisture is a key factor in the aging of leather, which can cause mold, drying and cracking.
Our untreated spruce saddle racks are an effective solution to protect your saddles from these alterations and extend the life of your equipment. After exercise, by placing your saddle on our wooden supports, you benefit from natural absorption of humidity, thus reducing the risk of mold.
Choosing wood for the longevity of your saddles and the health of your horse
Taking care of your equipment and the well-being of your horse is our priority. Our wooden saddle racks, thanks to their ergonomic and robust design, guarantee a long life for your saddle without deforming it, while preserving the health of your horses by avoiding pressure points.
Designed to perfectly fit the shape of your saddle, our products help maintain their shape and quality over time. A quality saddle, properly stored, can indeed last a lifetime, and proper storage is crucial to ensure longevity.
A well-preserved saddle not only offers more comfort to the rider but also plays an essential role in the health of the horse. An ill-fitting or misshapen saddle can create pressure points on the horse's back, causing pain and health problems.
Our supports are specially designed to hold the saddle in a position respecting its natural shape, thus minimizing the risk of injury and ensuring a comfortable and safe riding experience for both rider and horse.
