Benefits of Rubber Stable Mats
Greater Comfort Underfoot
Rubber has shock-absorbing properties that provide a cushioned surface for horses when standing, walking and turning. This provides a more forgiving surface than bare concrete.
Improved Grip and Stability
The textured surface provides traction and can help create a more stable footing surface than smooth concrete. Rubber mats can be used in stables, aisles, grooming areas and other high-traffic areas.
Good base preparation, suitable drainage and regular cleaning are important, particularly in areas exposed to water.
Easier Stable Cleaning
Rubber mats provide a defined, continuous flooring surface that can be swept, washed and cleaned as part of regular stable maintenance.
Potentially Reduced Bedding Requirements
Rubber mats provide cushioning over the underlying floor and may reduce the amount of bedding needed for comfort. The amount of bedding required will depend on the horse, stable conditions and management practices.
Protection for the Underlying Floor
Heavy-duty rubber mats form a protective layer between horses and the underlying floor. They can help reduce direct hoof impact and general wear on concrete and other hard flooring surfaces.
Durable Recycled-Rubber Construction
Our stable mats are made from recycled rubber and are designed for regular use in equine environments. The material is durable and suited to the demands of horse traffic, cleaning and everyday stable use.
