Our rubber cow matting is available in two formats, with either a straight edge of an interlocking edge. Both options provide the same levels of durability, anti-slip as well as anti-fatigue properties. The interlocking option is great for customers who are looking to cover a larger area, or who want the convenience of a single joined surface. Rubber Cow Mats (also known as Bull Mat) are specially crafted in order to aid the Cattle’s hygiene, ensure less fatigue and help against excessive rheumatism. These mats provide a comfortable base for the livestock to rest/stand upon while also preventing joint-deterioration in many animals.
Our rubber cow matting offers excellent anti-fatigue properties. This is due to the hardness of the rubber which is able to compress slightly under the weight of the cows, which encourages the cows to move around. This has been proven to reduce the risk of injury to ligaments and joints compared to a hard surface. The top surface of the mat features a “cobbled” pattern which increases the surface area of the mats and provides superior anti-slip properties even when wet. The underside of the mats feature a unique recessed design. This creates channels to help guide liquid and waste away from the mats, which makes the mats much safer and easier to clean compared to other rubber mats.
Cow mats are an excellent choice for flooring in cattle stalls. They provide many benefits for both the cows and their owners. Stall flooring keeps dairy cows safe and comfortable when standing in place for extended periods of time. Rubber Cow Matting can also help to keep them healthy on the inside. Owners will benefit from these because their cows become more productive due to their increased comfort, and they find that cow mats are easy to clean. Livestock mats are often made out of eco-friendly material that is very durable and long lasting. Cattle are a huge investment of time and money, especially in dairy plants. They require great care to keep them healthy so that they are producing good quality milk. Owners will want to protect their investment with rubber cow mats.
Cow mats help protect your dairy cows from the cold, hard ground, because they provide a softer surface for them to stand on. They can also relieve symptoms of arthritis. According to an article called “Signs and Symptoms of Arthritis in Cattle,” by Julia Fuller, on ehow.com, “When arthritis causes lameness and pain in cattle, it can decrease milk production in dairy cows, increase expenses because of treatment costs, and may result in the premature sale of affected animals. All of which negatively affect profit for the farmer resulting in economic losses, according to The Canadian Journal of Veterinary Research and the Canadian Veterinary Medical Association.” Stall flooring helps to lower the amount spent on veterinary medicine as it keeps the animals safe and healthy from the ground up, as well as from the inside out. Cracked, hard surfaces can pose a trip or fall hazard to cattle. Cow stall mats provide a smooth, even surface to walk on and protect the ground beneath them.
