About us

Through It all, we are measured by the purest of passions, a love of horses.

This unspoken bond between human and horse guides everything we do.

For almost 40 years, this simple truth has been Horseware Ireland's guiding inspiration.

It has helped us to always deliver high performance, beautiful and sustainable products that last.

It was 1985, when Horseware Ireland created our now iconic Rambo Original horse rug, sparking a design revolution that redefined innovation within the equine industry.

We forged a path that would grow across geographies, span generations, and make Horseware Ireland the world's leading equestrian brand in horse rugs and equine products, selling to over 70 countries worldwide, with more than 500 employees.

Today, more than ever, we continue to challenge what is possible and re-imagine new ways of fulfilling our mission to Make Life Better.
