Hugology
Hugology is the perfect blend of science and love. The entire WeatherBeeta ComFiTec range is designed with this in mind. The features of the rugs are where science meets love, we spend hours watching horses in fields to totally understand their natural movement and behaviour while wearing rugs in all environments and climates, this enables us to develop new innovations for the best protection, comfort, fit and most importantly freedom of movement for your horse.
Teflon/Repel Shell
The outer fabric of all our turnout rugs features Repel Shell or Teflon coating. This unique layer (shield) allows water droplets to bead and run off the rug, preventing saturation, working perfectly with the waterproof and breathable coating. Teflon also assists with allowing dry soil to brush away more easily without impacting the weight of the fabric.

Waterproof and Breathable Coating
WeatherBeeta turnout rugs outer fabric is 100% waterproof. The fabric of all WeatherBeeta turnout rugs is bonded with a waterproof and breathable membrane that provides a barrier with taped seams to lock the elements out. The membrane stops water droplets penetrating the rug and allows the horse’s natural sweat and excess moisture to escape and evaporate quickly, keeping them cool, dry and comfortable.
The breathable fabric allows internal sources of moisture to escape the fabric. This is determined by the difference in concentration of water vapour (or humidity) between the surface of the horse’s body and the air outside the rug, as well as the physical resistance of the rugs fabric layers. The humidity difference is determined by your horse's warmth and activity level, which drives sweating and the climate around them.
