Rubber Mats
Rubber matting on floor areas reduces lameness in cows and increases milk production.
Rubber matting in dairy farms decreases the risk of falls and injury, along with reducing lameness and hoof wear. By providing a warmer, softer, quieter environment for animals and farmers, you are also increasing milk production and your profit.
Increased milk production – Cow Mat is specifically designed to provide a soft, safe flooring surface for cows. Our customers have more relaxed, confident cattle and increase in milk production.
Reduced lameness - Dairy farmers have reported a reduction in lameness of up to 70% by using Cow Mat 18 mm mat. It also helps to reduce hoof wear and leg fatigue.
Healthier cows – Cow Mat’s thick rubber surface is softer and warmer than concrete, giving cows a healthier environment where they are housed and walk or lie regularly. Having rubber flooring where cows lie down and stand up on hard floors eliminates joint strain and pain, which is expressed by better carpal joint health, and in their natural lying behaviour.
Increased hygiene - A rubber surface such as Cow Mat has a lower microbial count than concrete.
Access ways:- Hard wearing, anti slip matting over concrete access ways reduces cattle injuries during peak milking periods. Hard-wearing matting gives access ways a soft surface and excellent traction, especially on sloped areas which can be treacherous for cows in high-use times. Our mat customers report reduced injury from falls, less hoof wear, and better cow flow.
Holding Yards: cow matting in your holding yard, you can see the area live up to its full potential. Cows will be more comfortable, sure footed, suffer less fatigue and you will get better cow flow in and out of your milking shed. The natural rubber surface replicates the feel of real pasture, putting cows at ease and reducing lameness and fall rates. At the end of the milking, cleaning will be dramatically easier and you’ll use half the water.
