summer 2017 - bucas...rug and perform at a wider range of temperatures than other rugs on the...
TRANSCRIPT
Summer 2017
In 1982 we produced the first high performance water resistant turnout rug. This was followed by the first fully waterproof and breathable rugs by the end of the eighties.
We perfected the “Stay-dry” principle of using wicking linings that transport sweat and moisture away from the horse while the inside of the lining
remains dry and keeps the horse warm.
In the 1990s we developed the first truly light-weight fully waterproof and breathable turnout for use at higher temperatures.
We also developed the first of its kind, a sun/heat reflective rug with aluminium lining, heat retentive layers and anti-bacterial lining.
In 2000 we introduced the revolutionary Buzz-Off full-body, fly and UV protection rug. The outstanding overall performance
and durability of this product is reflected in the strong customer approval and satisfaction.
In 2012, Bucas then launched another revolution in the horse world with the Buzz-Off Zebra fly rug. We designed this rug based on the principle that Zebras in the wild are never bombarded with flies. This is due to the pattern of their stripe. Simply put, the flies are confused by the stripes so stay away!
2014 launched the New Select Range of rugs, our new layer system for indoor and outdoor
use. We also launched our new Retail Portal for use for our trade customers to order through the
Bucas.com trade app. We updated and rebuilt the main bucas.com website for our end users to get
information they needed and for them to register their products for guarantee.
We introduced a new fastening on the original Smartex turnout rug after 25 years to include an innovative magnetic Snap-lock fastening across the
Smartex range. We also introduced our first therapeutic horse rug with the Bucas Recuptex Therapy rug being launched into shops in Spring 2016. This
rug works with the body’s own magnetic field and helps promote healing of muscles and improve blood circulation.
Bucas is the name which is synonymous with technical equine rugs and for good reason too! We pride ourselves in creating a collection of technical horse rugs to ensure that your horse is suitably dressed no matter the weather or occasion!
Thus, this great tradition of pioneering “intelligent” horse rugs continues and our product range today includes a greater choice of
high performance products than ever before.
Since 1981 Bucas have merged a great Irish equestrian tradition with the latest technical
developments and experience from other industries, countries and markets. This has resulted in
the development of a wide range of highly innovative and technically advanced products. From
the beginning, we have exported more than 90% of our products to markets around the world.
Intelligent RugsBecause we know that the weathermen never get it 100% right, our intelligent turnout rugs boast breathable properties together with stay-dry linings. So, should the weather change while your horse is turned out, there’s no need to worry about changing rugs as these rugs work over a greater temperature range than ordinary rugs.
Our turnout rugs are helpfully labelled with “temperature gauges” instead of the traditional weight system – why? Well, because we have developed highly technical fabrics that, not only offer maximum performance in terms of insulation and breathability, but we have managed to do
this without bulk, therefore they naturally weigh less than a standard rug and perform at a wider range of temperatures than other rugs on the market. With Bucas, the weight of the rug is considerably less – yet the warmth rating is much more than expected for such a light-weight blanket. Our Turnout Temperature Guide clearly shows the recommended temperatures for our different Turnouts.
The benefits of our unique, wicking stay-dry materials have also been applied to stable rugs, coolers and sweat rugs. The peace of mind resulting from knowing that your horse is ensured the best comfort at all times is invaluable. As ever, we at Bucas pride ourselves in ensuring that your horse always
wears the very best. Our collections meet with the ever-changing needs and demands that modern horse ownership brings, which is why we update our rug design every time improvements can be made. Recent developments have included new front fastenings, additional field and stable friendly colours and updates on some of our rug designs to further improve fit and freedom.
Other intelligent productsAs with our intelligent rugs, we apply the same principle of using technologically advanced materials and design to our other products including saddle girths, saddle pads, travel boots and halters.

The Bucas Recuptex Therapy range helps to prevent numerous medical problems and also help in the treatment of a vast array of ailments.
The material is made from an extremely fine, stainless steel mesh so acts like a Faraday Shield, reflecting the magnetic fields created inside the body. Preserving these fields stimulates blood circulation and oxygen flow in the horse’s body and back, which heals and reduces both swelling and inflammation and promotes faster healing.
It can be left on your horse for 24 hours, 7 days a week if necessary but it is advised to slowly increase and monitor the use of the Recuptex Therapy rug when first being used. As the properties in the material help warm up the muscles sometimes the horse may sweat after long periods of use.
Bucas Recuptex Therapy rug is the ideal choice for treating horses with chronic arthritis or back problems and helps to accelerate the recovery process in a natural environment.
The Recuptex properties cannot be washed out.
Available in sizes 115 / 5’0 – 165 / 7’0.
The Recuptex Therapy Quarter Sheet helps increase blood circulation and warm up muscles faster while you ride. The material prevents the escape of the natural magnetic field of the horse’s back and reflects this back into the body, working naturally and non-invasively. It’s ideal for warming up horses and helping muscles recover faster when cooling down. The sheet is waterproof and breathable with a rip-stop outer.
Available in S – XL.
The Recuptex Therapy Dog Rug helps to increase blood circulation throughout the body, warm up muscles and reduce swelling and inflammation. It is ideal for all dogs, especially working and older dogs. It is waterproof and breathable with a ripstop outer fabric and adjustable full-belly protection.
Available in sizes 30cm / 12” – 75cm / 30”.
