COMFORT:

Mattress system with pliant tarsal zone

  • 3-layer composition – proven since 2004
    › ideal and permanent softness for every load condition
    › gentle on carpal joints
    › integrated soft slope: promotes drying off of the surface
    › chamfer: gentle on animal joints, no stumbling edge
    › sealing lips: surround the foam inlay and the lower mat, the foam is protected
  • Specially designed TarsaCare tarsal zone in the rear third of the mat
    › sensitive ankle joints are gently positioned
    › better air circulation keeps the skin drier
    › even small amounts of bedding are held in place – supports the organic layer structure
    › improved sure-footedness, especially when getting up and when leaving the cubicle

  • Longer lying length of 1.92 m: more freedom when lying, lying down and standing up
    › reduces oblique lying and improves lying positions
    › therefore significantly more tails in the cubicle than with shorter lying lengths
    › cows and lying areas are noticeably cleaner
    › in most cases, there is no need for a brisket board

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 Liegematten Pflegetipp

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
