New technology using MIRoTEC material (foil) to reflect infra-red body heat back as they escape from the skin surface provides a simple, lightweight and completely safe way to keep a foal warm and comfortable.

The MIRoTEC system not only prevents excessive heat loss from the body skin surface, but also helps maintain body core heat, and with it, facilitates digestive and optimum metabolic function. The rug also provides a barrier to reduce the chill factor and keeps the foal dry and warm. A naturally warm foal has a better chance of maintaining its vitality and activity.
