The Tack Factory B.V. is the company that manages and distributes the ANKY® Technical Casuals range. In 1998 Anky van Grunsven launched ANKY® Technical Casuals.

Triple Olympic Champion Anky van Grunsven was convinced that there was a huge need for a fashionable line of clothing and related products, which combines technical materials with optimal comfort, quality and usability.
 
ATC® offers the perfect balance between comfort and design. The offices of The Tack Factory BV are located in Erp, on the same premises as Anky van Grunsven's Dressage Stable. At this location a team of employees organizes the management, styling, distribution and administration of ANKY® Technical Casuals.
 
 Anky van Grunsven is really devoted to composing, designing and testing the collections. Every year ATC® releases two collections on the market, one for ladies and one for men. Every fall they launch a Kids’ collection. Besides these collections, there is a wide selection of standard articles available for rider and horse.
 
All ATC® articles are manufactured with high-tech materials with specific technical functionalities and properties which makes them suitable for many different sporting activities. When Anky first created this line her goal was to produce a range of clothing for sporting amateurs and professionals. Clothes that help them perform at their best in all weather conditions, whilst remaining comfortable and fashionable.
 
After the introduction in 1998, ATC® established themselves as a well-known brand in the equestrian world. Because of the ultimate usability for practicing sports, ATC® has developed to a well-known brand in several branches of sports. A few examples are golf, hockey and outdoor sports.

ATC® cooperates closely with leading suppliers of high- tech materials to ensure access to the latest developments in high- tech material innovations.Our technologies have been tested in a variety of highly respected laboratories and practical wear trails. The result has been nothing less than excellent.
