Our Contribution: Premium Equestrian Facilities


Each rider will bring two horses, making a total of 70 international-level show horses, which will be airlifted to Hong Kong for the competition.


We are proud to announce that HOPE HORSE has had the privilege of providing accommodation for these 70 horses, specially designing and constructing lightweight temporary stables for the competition (as shown in the image).



These portable horse stalls are made to meet the event's requirements, offering easy transportation, quick assembly, and excellent durability. Built with a high-strength, durable steel frame and lightweight yet sturdy PVC waterproof fabric, these portable stables ensure a safe and comfortable resting environment for the horses.


In addition to temporary horse stalls, we also supply a range of high-quality equestrian products to enhance safety and experience at the venue. 

Our temporary fencing is designed for crowd control, track division, and audience guidance, made of sturdy and durable materials that allow quick installation and flexible layout adjustments.


We also offer anti-slip interlocking rubber mats, providing excellent shock absorption and traction. Whether in warm-up areas or competition zones, these rubber flooring helps reduce fatigue in high-intensity performances and minimize the risk of slips and injuries. With a modular interlocking design, these rubber mats are easy to install and remove while being waterproof, corrosion-resistant, and highly durable.



If you are in need of horse products, we invite you to visit our website to explore our horse stables, temporary stalls, fencing, horse walkers, round pens, anti-slip rubber mats, and more. 

We are committed to providing high-quality, safe, and durable equestrian equipment tailored to the needs of event organizers, clubs, and individual riders. 

We look forward to your inquiries and collaboration!
