Wing profile – stable and flexible simultaneously
› adapts optimally to the lying cow
› supporting studs have a cushioning effect under concentrated loads (when the cow gets up or lies down)
The soft lying area within the mat edges supports the correct resting position of the cow and improves slip resistance
Proven pebbled surface
Integrated soft slope to rear edge promotes drying off
Chamfer at the rear edge: gentle on animal joints, no stumbling edge
Completely enclosing sealing lips on the lower side minimize soiling

Robust and permanently soft
Skin-friendly and gentle on the joints
Slip-resistant
Easy to maintain
Easy to install

More animal welfare & less work

Consistently high milk yield requires animal-friendly housing methods.

Regarding the lying areas, this means comfortable, non-slip and clean cubicles in which the cows like to spend more than half the day in a relaxed position. This protects the joints, relieves the claws and thus increases animal welfare.

Tips for maintenance

Spread a small amount of bedding on the lying mats
› e.g. soft milled straw or mineral material
(moisture in the lying area, among other things, plays a major role in the development of skin diseases and infections)
Treatment with a high-pressure cleaner as well as with standard cleaning agents is possible
