Stable mats are a rubber surface designed to reduce fatigue in the horses’ joints in the stable. This is due to the standing position of the animal. Most often, rubber mats for stables are 10 to 25 mm thick and black. Mats for stables for horses can be successfully used not only in stalls, but also in trailers for transporting horses.
Stable mats for horse stalls
Stable mats reduce fatigue for horses. Let’s think about what this advantage comes from?
The rubber of the stall mats makes the animal isolated from the cold and damp floor. What’s more, the rubber granulate mats mean that horses do not have to stand on a hard surface. The use of stable mats in stalls has a positive effect on the horses’ joints and significantly reduces hoof wear.
Concrete floor in breeding horses is often lined with litter. The bedding is designed to protect ungulates from slipping and falling, and to keep the stable in order. Unfortunately, the litter often has to be supplemented and corrected. A more economical solution is to use stable mats for stalls.
The main feature that makes it possible to achieve such an effect is the structure of such a rubber mat for stables. Moreover, the stall mats for horse stalls are flexible, so they dampen noise when walking. They cushion the horse’s joints more than regular bedding. Breeding horses withgranulated mats do not run the risk of slipping.
