Bucas

Sweet Itch Rug

Afgeleid van de zeer succesvolle Buzz-Off Zebra vliegendeken, heeft Bucas een nieuwe stof ontwikkeld met dezelfde zebrastrepen dat bescherming biedt tegen de Culicoides mug (knutten). Bij paarden met zomereczeem is preventie de sleutel tot succes: zorg ervoor dat u het probleem voor bent, door uw paard een deken op te doen voor het muggenseizoen begint.

De eerste in zijn soort, de Sweet Itch vliegen- eczeemdeken met zebrastrepen voorkomt dat het paard gestoken wordt door de kleine muggen en weert de grote, agressieve vliegen. Het is wetenschappelijk bewezen dat de vliegen in de war raken van de zebrastrepen en dus bij het paard vandaan blijven.

De unieke Sweet-Itch Zebra deken is gemaakt van een speciaal ontwikkelde stof die zelfs de kleinste insecten tegenhoudt. Er is extra aandacht besteed aan de manen- en staartgedeeltes om deze goed te beschermen en zo jeuk te voorkomen.

Het ontwerp is een volledige ‘body cover’, met een halsstuk tot aan de oren om zo de manen volledig te beschermen. Een elastische, afneembare buikflap beschermt de gehele onderbuik van het paard, van ellenboog tot kruis. Schouderplooien zorgen voor extra bewegingsvrijheid. Een grote staartflap bedekt dit problematische gebied en voorkomt dat de kleine bijtende vliegen de staart bereiken. Bilkoorden houden de deken op zijn plaats en een overlappende, gevoerde borstflap zorgt ervoor dat de deken comfortabel blijft, ongeacht hoe lang uw paard de deken draagt.

Bucas Sweet-Itch Zebra biedt ook UV-bescherming en voorkomt zo zonnebrand en verkleuring van de vacht.

Our Technology

Bucas have developed a wide range of highly innovative and technically advanced products. We have a great tradition of pioneering “intelligent” horse rugs.

Anti UV​

Protect your horse with our Anti-UV technology, designed to block harmful ultraviolet rays and keep them cool and comfortable.

Anti-insect

Keep insects at bay with our innovative Anti-Insect technology.

Antibacterial

The anti-bacterial lining helps to keep the rug fresh and eliminates odours.

Ballistic Nylon

Ballistic nylon is extremely durable, made using a very tight knit “ballistic weave.” This is a half panama weave that is tear resistant in all directions.

Big Neck

Big Neck style is a great fit for stallions and breeds of horses that tend to be wider across the shoulders.

Click 'n Go

A special patented closure only available from Bucas. Easy for a human to close and open but difficult for your horse!

Dermo-Care

Silky Dermo-care lining with wicking properties helps to dry the horse’s coat after washing or exercise, keeping the coat smooth and soft.

Eco Friendly

Manufactured using Certified Recycled Materials.

Fillet String

Fillet string prevents our rug from flipping up your horses back while they relax in their field.​

High Neck

The High Neck style offers a higher-cut neckline for added comfort and protection, eliminating the need for a full neck piece.

Layering System

Bucas Liners, Quilts and Coolers can be used under Turnouts as an extra layer of insulation.

Oxford Fabric

The basket type weave of Oxford fabric gives it durable and breathable properties, it ages well and gets softer with each use, it dries easily after washing and it has a good resistance to abrasion.

Polyester Twill

The twill weave is characterised by its diagonal lines, which are created by an offset in the warp threads. Twill is very durable and hides stains well.

Pony Sizes

Available in smaller sizes to fit ponies.

Reflective Strips

Reflective strip placed on the rug so that the animal can be seen when an artificial light is shone on it.

Ripstop Outer

Ripstop is the pattern of the weave that makes the material less prone to tearing. This weave helps prevent any rips that do occur from spreading through the material.

Shoulder Darts

Shoulder Darts help to give your horse a more tailored fit across the chest and shoulder area. These are a signature design feature from Bucas.

Silk Feel

Silk-feel lining is smooth against your horse’s skin and helps keep the coat in good condition.

Snap-Lock

Snap-lock magnetic closure keeps your Bucas rug correctly positioned on your horse. It eliminates the use of Hook and Loop closures on the chest.

Stay Dry

Stay-dry fleece fabric wicks away moisture from your horse’s skin.​

Sun Reflective

Heat reflective rugs help to reflect the sunlight, preventing the rug from absorbing the heat and heating up the horse.

T-bar

Heat reflective rugs help to reflect the sunlight, preventing the rug from absorbing the heat and heating up the horse.

Therapeutic

A specially formulated fabric from Bucas. The fabric reflects the naturally occurring magnetic fields within the body, improving circulation, helping to warm up muscles faster and promotes healing properties.

Waterproof & Breathable

Waterproofing: > 5000 mm Hydrostatic head. Breathability: > 3000 g/24h/m².

Zebra Effect
