As with all the other rugs in the Rhino Turnout Family it takes advantage of Horseware's unique Barrier Technology where AquaTrans coating, instead of being applied directly to the outer fabric, is applied to a super smooth barrier fabric which is layered underneath making it fully Breathable and Waterproof. The outer fabric is very efficient and lightweight made from a polyester ripstop construction.
A patented front leg arch allows for the rug/blanket to be wrapped deeper around the belly without causing restriction behind the elbow which ultimately can put pressure on the shoulder.
The Polypropylene is a thermoplastic polymer, used in a wide variety of applications, including food packaging, textiles, plastic parts and reusable containers of various types, laboratory equipment, loudspeakers, automotive components, and polymer banknotes. Polypropylene fabric does not retain moisture, which makes it a popular choice for the outer shell of turnout blankets/rugs. It is also used for binding or webbing. Worth noting: Polypropylene fabris has a relatively low melting point, so you'll want to avoid putting it in the dryer.
