Andrews Bowen NZ Arenas

Andrews Bowen NZ Arenas Whatever your ambition, whatever the day-to-day, an Andrews Bowen surface supports you and your horses every step of the way.

At Andrews Bowen NZ, we believe every horse deserves the best footing—and every rider deserves the confidence that comes with it. Born from a shared passion between Olympian John Cottle and his son James, our business is rooted in a lifetime of riding, training, and understanding what it takes to create world-class equestrian spaces. With decades of elite experience and a genuine love for horses,

John and James set out to bring international-quality arena surfaces to New Zealand's riders. As the official distributor of Andrews Bowen’s Olympic Mix fibre surface, we deliver the same advanced footing used at top-level competitions around the globe—customised for the unique conditions here in New Zealand. Whether you're building a new arena, upgrading an existing surface, or maintaining your setup year-round, we’re here to help—with genuine advice, supply-only options, or full-service installation.

Another great result we’re proud to be part of.

Over 200ml of rain and still riding beautifully — that’s the difference a professionally built Andrews Bowen NZ surface makes.

We offer full arena builds — or, if you’re topping up or upgrading, surface supply-only is also an option.

We had a great time at Brookby Showjumping today and were pleased to sponsor the Pro Am Rider Class. Watching talented riders and their horses compete in such a well-run event was a pleasure.

A big thank you to the organizers, volunteers, and everyone behind the scenes for making the day such a success—your hard work does not go unnoticed!

We’re also proud that Ring 1 featured our Andrews Bowen NZ surface, recently replaced in conjunction with LC Contractors Ltd. and Worker Contracting Ltd. to enhance the riding experience and performance. Ensuring riders and horses have the best footing possible is something we are truly passionate about.

At Andrews Bowen NZ, we love supporting equestrian sport and being part of such a fantastic community.

Looking forward to the next one! 🌿🐴

The fibres we supply and use in all of our surfaces are immediate PRE-CONSUMER fibres, meaning they are of the very highest quality and are guaranteed to be free of chemicals and contaminants.

They can be added to ANY sand based surface. The 100% synthetic fibre blend provides an ideal additive to improve existing sand-based riding surfaces and will not break down or degrade, giving considerably extended life expectancy for every surface.

Our fibres are the very same we use in all of our own surfaces, they are of the very highest professional quality.

For more information regarding our fibre, either within our surfaces or as a supply for your existing arena, contact us on 021 220 0275
