Lying areas in the cubicle barn

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.

KRAIBURG cubicle mats are

robust and permanently soft
skin-friendly and gentle on the joints
slip-resistant
easy to maintain
easy to install
also suitable for outdoor use
