High Quality Equipment

Quality Craftsmanship

The AQI 3800 is engineered with marine-grade stainless steel and safety glass for unmatched durability. Its reinforced belt is designed to endure the demands of daily use, ensuring strength and safety in every session. With premium craftsmanship and parts that outlast the competition, the AQI 3800 delivers exceptional performance and a lower lifetime cost.

Equine Rehabilitation

Advanced Safety Systems

Aqua Icelander treadmills prioritize safety with quick-release bars, light sensors, emergency stops on both sides, and overload protection. The back and chest bars are padded with soft EPDM rubber for comfort, and all fixtures are integrated cleanly into the walls. Optional soft EPDM bumpers attach in seconds, creating an extra layer of protection for horses during every session.

Equine Aqua Tred

Adjustable Incline

The AQI 3800 offers a customizable incline from 0–10%, creating the effect of uphill training. This setting increases the workload on the hindquarters by up to 27%, while simultaneously engaging the topline to strengthen the horse’s back and neck. The result is a more effective, well-rounded workout that builds strength, balance, and conditioning.

Horse Water Treadmill

Variable Water Depth

With adjustable water levels up to 1.2 meters, the AQI 3800 allows precise control over training intensity. Lower depths encourage natural movement and lighter conditioning, while higher water levels increase resistance, requiring the horse to work harder. This flexibility makes it easy to tailor sessions for rehabilitation, strength building, or peak performance.​

AQI 3800

Unique Cleanability

Built to the same standards as food processing equipment, the AQI 3800 is engineered for exceptional hygiene and ease of maintenance. The streamlined design minimizes dirt traps and hard-to-reach areas, while large cleaning hatches on both sides allow for quick, thorough cleaning — saving time and ensuring a consistently sanitary environment.​
