Corbro underlay is engineered for the therapeutic support and load distribution for large animals. It utilizes a chemically cross-linked polymer blend formulated to achieve optimal performance. No fillers are used in the manufacture of Corbro equine underlay.

Yes. Corbro underlay is a closed-cell

You can use Corbro underlay to cover the entire area or target specific areas as needed - choosing how to configure the sheets is entirely yours. However, we recommend a minimum width of 50mm for optimal results when working with off-cuts.

Yes. If the existing rubber floor is securely bonded, it can be used as the base. The existing rubber will also provide an additional sound barrier inside the transporter.

Yes, to prevent any expansion of the Corbro underlay sheet, always work out of direct sunlight during installation

Yes, it's an underlay. 

Most standard equine transport/flooring rubber is compatible with Corbro underlay. 

Yes, we recommend bonding Corbro underlay to a surface that effectively prevents foreign materials from infiltrating beneath the sheet and also ensures the sheets remain securely in place, preventing any shifting or movement."

Yes, we recommend bonding the upper layer to the Corbro underlay, which effectively prevents foreign materials from infiltrating beneath the upper layer, and the Corbro underlay also ensures the upper layer remains in place.

Corbro underlay can be cut with a utility/Stanley knife or a fine-toothed blade when using power tools.

Any rubber-compatible contact adhesive is suitable for Corbro Underlay. Consult your adhesive supplier to find the best option for your needs. Ensure it forms an industrial-strength bond and remains flexible to accommodate foam movement. Always test on a small sample before full installation.

Corbro underlay is a closed cell, so when re-bonding Corbro underlay or repairing sheets, it may assist in roughening the surface (underlay) with sandpaper to help with adhesion. Scoring the foam will also create adhesive hooks. Always make sure surfaces are cleaned thoroughly before re-bonding. 

If Corbro underlay doesn't align with a surface and is left exposed, we advise cutting a tapered or sloped edge before attaching the upper layer. This precautionary step helps prevent tripping hazards and ensures a smoother surface for bonding the upper layer of Corbro underlay. 

"If the underlay does not fit beneath the tack box, you can either raise the tack box to create more clearance or trim the underlay so it doesn't extend under the tack box (see picture)."
