Let's talk about Equine Herpes Virus (EHV-1). Bio-security within yards has never been so important to keep our equines safe. This is where Zilco products can help!
The PVC coating on Zilco products not only protects the product from abrasions and cuts but makes it 100% water, sweat and bacteria resistant which is paramount in maintaining high biosecurity standards in the yard.
As Zilco products are all synthetic they can safely be cleaned with warm soapy water and disinfected in a mild solution of multi-purpose disinfectant, with no damage to the materials, unlike leather products. To see for yourself how simple cleaning our range of synthetic products is, head over to our YouTube page : Zilco International, to check out our videos.
Many equestrian disciplines have already made the switch over to synthetic equipment, such as horse racing, where bridles are often used on more than one horse. Synthetic bridles have also been used in the sport of endurance for decades as the waterproof properties enable horses to be washed down without damaging the bridle wear. The vast array of colours available also makes synthetic products desirable in these disciplines.
Modern day manufacturing process have helped Zilco to develop a range of high quality synthetic products which look like leather. Even the more traditionalists amongst us are often fooled!
The Zilco Epsom range of bridle wear and Deluxe halters are made from a high class matt finish PN material which has the look of leather but without the maintenance. The Deluxe halter incorporates sturdy brass buckles and a name plate for personalisation purposes.
Zilco’s popular padded bridle offers a lightweight bridle, with generous PVC waffle padding on the headpiece, browband and noseband. The thin PVC coated material remains supple and easy to use when adjusting buckles even in the coldest of temperatures when your fingers are frozen!
From halters to leads, bridles to breastplates, we have a complete range of products which are ideal for ‘work/training’ tack at home or even smart enough to be used out and about.
