It came to our attention that a lot of great technology has been passing the industry by.  One of the biggest has been in suspension design. In order to reach the heavy load requirements for Horse Floats, designers, engineers and manufactures have focused on strength and not on the ride it provides for the horses.  Long and short trips can be distressing for our horses and the end result of that is a horse that is not itself when we arrive at our destination.  This leads to long cool down periods or overnight rests are required to get ready for a ride.  With our independent Cloud 9 Air Ride your horses arrive in comfort, relaxed and not fatigued! 

​

Having the Cloud 9 system then lead us down the path of Loading horses and the weight of loading ramps! If we have air suspension we can drop the float down hard onto the ground.  This feature gives us two major advantages. 1 The float feels solid and safe when loading. 2 We don't need a ramp, ramps are difficult and clumsy. They are either too light and the horses fell unsafe when they put their feet on them or they are too heavy and we struggle to lift them.  Our Auto load system negates all of that.

​

Then we turned out attention to structure. We want these floats that we spend so much money on to be insulated, cool in summer and warm in winter. We also want them to be strong and last our lifetime.  To do this we adopted Structural Riveting in conjunction with Structural Insulated Panels (SIPS) this allows us to laser cut and CNC fold all components of the structure. Then using structural rivets we get stronger joints, connection of materials, using a tried and proven structural engineering technique's proven in the Aviation sector for a millennium. This will out last any welded joint, and because there is no welding we don't need to go back and hot dip galvanize the folded cold galvanized sheet, saving massive time in constructing but providing a structure for life!
