How does the Magnetic Recuptex rug work?

Based on Bekaert BEKINOX® technology, it contains the finest stainless steel fibre yarn woven into the fabric. This creates a Faraday cage which reflects the magnetic field of the horse's body. Maintaining these fields stimulates blood circulation and oxygen transport, thereby improving the recovery and healing process in a natural, protective environment. The rug is made of very sturdy woven fabric that can be used both in summer and winter in combination with other rugs. This rug is ideal for use before or after riding to help improve muscle relaxation.

How do I use the Magnetic Recuptex rug?

When using a Recuptex product for the first time, it’s important to introduce it to your horse gradually. Because it can feel a little tingly, we recommend starting with 5 minutes first. If your horse responds well, you can increase the time. Once your horse gets used to the material, it’s up to you how long you want the horse to wear it. Some riders use it for two hours before and after training to help the horse warm up and cool down again. Others keep it on 24/7. The good news is that you can never overuse Recuptex, since it’s not a magnetic rug.

At what temperatures can I use the Recuptex rug?

Because a Recuptex rug is very light, you can use it all year round. Thanks to the mesh fabric, the rug can also serve as a fly rug in summer. During winter, the rug can be combined with other Kentucky rugs.

What are the benefits of Recuptex?

Recuptex relaxes the horse's muscles and calms its behaviour. Your horse may start to yawn, for example. You will notice that your horse is more supple when riding as well. Which also means your horse will recover faster after training.

Recuptex can be used for a variety of problems. It helps against osteoarthritis and tendon issues. It can also be used on horses with swollen legs or muscle problems. Because Recuptex only works with the horse's magnetic fields, it can’t harm your horse.

Is Recuptex washable?

The Magnetic Recuptex rugs can be washed without losing their quality. Because we used stainless steel wires made by Bekaert and no magnets, a Recuptex product is a lifetime purchase. You can wash it at 30 degrees, without a dryer.
