BETA was formed in 1979 and has grown to be recognised and accepted as the official representative body for the equestrian manufacturing,
wholesale and retail trade by Government and leading riding organisations.

We currently have over 800 member companies, covering a wide range of businesses including not only retailers, wholesalers and manufacturers, but also agents, dealers and many service based businesses. All our members are involved in some way with equestrianism.

We are committed to the promotion of BETA members to the riding public, to on-going market research to inform both our members and the wider equestrian industry on the state of the market and horse riding as a leisure activity.

Proper care for ALL your protective gear is essential. We're thrilled to feature our BETA member, @fomoprotection , with some vital advice on looking after your body protector. That includes how you store it! ✨

1. 📦 Storage Tip #1: Breathe Easy
Don't trap your body protector in a sweaty bag! Hang it somewhere that is dry & well-ventilated to keep it fresh and fungus-free. 🌬️🦠 
________________________________________
2. 🚫 No Crush Zone!
Don't store things on top of your body protector — it can damage the protective foam! Store it flat or hang it by the shoulders. 
________________________________________
3. 🧼 Wipe It Right
After a ride, wipe down your body protector with a damp cloth to remove sweat, mud, and dust. Or if it has a removable outer cover, remove and pop the outer in the washing machine! 🧽🐴 
________________________________________
4. 🌞 Keep It Cool
Heat and sun can ruin the materials in your body protector. Store it away from direct sunlight and radiators. 🌡️❌
________________________________________
5. 🧺 Tack Room Goals
Use a sturdy hanger or a special gear hook to store your body protector neatly in your tack room. Looks tidy, lasts longer. ✔️
________________________________________
6. 🔄 Regular Check-In
When storing, give your body protector a quick once-over: any cracks, wear, or compressed foam? If yes, it might be time to replace it. 🧐🛡️

Thank you, FOMO!
