A New Chapter for NuuMed
Share this article
We’re pleased to share some important news about the future of NuuMed.
NuuMed is now part of the Racesafe family, a fellow British equestrian manufacturer with a long-standing reputation for quality, innovation and craftsmanship. Alongside Thermatex, another much-loved British brand, NuuMed has been brought under Racesafe's stewardship to secure its future.
For decades, NuuMed products have earned the trust of riders across a wide range of disciplines. From everyday training to competition, our saddlepads and accessories have become familiar favourites in tack rooms throughout the UK and beyond. We know how much the brand means to our customers, retailers and ambassadors, which is why we're so pleased to be able to safeguard its future and continue its proud British manufacturing heritage.
Keeping British Manufacturing at the Heart of NuuMed
One of the most important aspects of this transition is that NuuMed products will continue to be made in Great Britain.
Racesafe is currently integrating both NuuMed and Thermatex into its established UK manufacturing facility, providing the expertise, infrastructure and long-term investment needed to support the brands into the future.
To ensure a smooth transition, members of the former NuuMed and Thermatex teams are working alongside Racesafe's skilled machinists, helping to transfer specialist knowledge and maintain the quality and attention to detail that customers have come to expect.
Looking Ahead
Over the coming months, we'll be working closely with retailers and customers as we carefully bring the core NuuMed range back into production. The focus will be on returning the most popular and commercially important lines first, so riders can get back to the products they know and trust.
James How, Managing Director of Racesafe, commented:
"NuuMed and Thermatex are brands that mean a great deal to riders and retailers alike. They have strong foundations and loyal customers, and we believe they deserve a stable and properly resourced future.
As a specialist UK manufacturer, we see real value in bringing their heritage products back into production with the backing of Racesafe's manufacturing strength and expertise. Our intention is to strengthen and properly resource these brands so they can thrive again."
A Commitment to Quality and Heritage
At a time when many brands are moving production overseas, this investment represents a strong commitment to British manufacturing and the specialist skills that support our industry.
By bringing NuuMed into the Racesafe family, we are safeguarding the knowledge, craftsmanship and values that have defined the brand for so many years.
We know many customers have been eagerly awaiting news about NuuMed, and we're incredibly grateful for your patience and support. We look forward to sharing further updates on product availability and relaunch plans soon.
Thank you for being part of the NuuMed journey.
