Application

For every slatted floor geometry

› fattening bulls and young cattle in pens: up to 250 kg
(or up to 350 kg if the animals are kept in the same pen for the whole fattening / breeding period)
› With higher weights we recommend LOSPA SB or LOSPA swiss

› slatted floor in the walking alley

Healthier animals & fewer injuries

Fully slatted pens with rubber mats provide more sure-footedness and comfort. Along with other things, this is demonstrated by fewer injuries, natural movement patterns and the animal’s preference for rubber.

Rubber mats protect the joints so that standing up and lying down can be performed in a normal way and therefore happen more frequently. This has a positive effect on feed intake. The better sure-footedness allows for behaviour fulfilling the animal’s needs and provides more well-being.

KRAIBURG KURA S Spaltenmatte aus Gummi - Abmessungen Querschitt

Floor prerequisites
  • slit width: from 30 mm
    (technically possible from 24 mm on special request)
  • tread width: from 80 mm

KRAIBURG Info IconThe mats are dimensioned by our specialists on the basis of many years‘ experience. Stability also plays an important role.
In addition to the slit and tread widths in the slatted floor, feeding, aeration, occupation density etc. are important for clean floors.

Complete covering pays off!

In order to reduce injuries and enable all animals to behave fulfilling their needs we recommend full covering of the pen with rubber.

In the case of partial covering with rubber:

Lower ranking animals are easily pushed off. This is particularly true where the complete lying area cannot be used as such because the animals in the feeding place stand with their hind legs on the mats of the lying area.

IMPORTANT:

When feeding, the animals should stand on the mat either completely or not at all! This is also important for
long-term functionality.

You can find more details on this in our criteria for covering fully slatted pens

“The KURA S and KURA SB mats are dry and clean. Thus, the calves have a good surefootedness. Also the calves are very clean on the mats.”

“The animals are healthier and grow better, they have a higher slaughtering weight at the end of the fattening period and I can use my bongossi grates for a longer time. The cleaning time is significantly shorter now and the consumption of water has also decreased considerably.”
