Why and How RED BARN Rubber Mats can reduce costs, cut injuries.
LABOUR COSTS
CUT DRAMATICALLY
RED BARN rubber flooring cuts free stall clean
ing time to a minimum. One dairyman with 165
stalls averages only 15 minutes per day to keep
ALL stalls clean (testimonial on request).
Because RED BARN mats are tough,
depressions cannot develop that require filling,
as is often the case with other types of flooring.
Broken dividers causing animal injury are also
ided
Results posted for Buck
RED BARN floors are 100% vulcanized rubber. They were first manufactured and
installed in 1968, and have proven their worth to dairymen ever since. Whether these
mats are used in free stalls or stanchion barns, their non-slip qualities provide both
comfort and safety for your herd. Dairymen everywhere report bedding cost reductions
of 80% and more, and a dramatic decrease in clean-up time. Slips and falls that result
in swollen hocks and stepped-on teats are all but eliminated.
