Pasture Mat
The Pasture Mat by Promat is the most proven mattress in the agricultural industry.
The pasture mat, also known as the grazing mattress, simulates the lying conditions of a natural pasture. This has a positive impact on the health of the cows. The pasture mat provides optimal comfort for over 3 million cows worldwide.
Benefits:
- Simulates a natural pasture.
- Requires minimal bedding.
- Provides a stable surface for the hooves.
- Cows have excellent grip when standing up.
- Durable.
- Shock-absorbing.
Thoughtful Design:
The Pasture Mat is a cow mattress made from multiple cells filled with rubber granulate. Rubber granulate is finely ground rubber, mostly recycled from car tires. The standard nylon top layer is specially designed and has been extensively tested, resulting in the Pasture Mat being the best animal mattress worldwide.
Natural Behavior:
Research has shown that cows typically lie down for an average of 15 hours in the pasture. This has positive effects on the health of the cows, which naturally leads to good milk production. The goal of the Pasture Mat is to replicate the natural pasture environment, encouraging cows to lie down for longer periods.
Cost Savings:
The Pasture Mat is relatively simple to install and can often be done by yourself. However, we can also take care of the installation if needed. If you have any questions, feel free to contact us. The real savings come from bedding. The Pasture Mat is equivalent to about 7.5 cm of bedding. With the Pasture Mat, bedding is only needed to absorb manure. The top layer is waterproof, so some bedding will still need to be added.
Structure of the Pasture Mat:
Top Layer:
Promat’s patented, industry-leading covers protect the mattress core from moisture. They provide a hygienic, seamlessly sealed surface that is durable and easy to clean – ideal for everyday use in the barn.
Comfort Layer:
High-density European foam ensures a long lifespan and maximum lying comfort. This layer evens out the surface and further enhances the comfort of the pasture mat.
Available in 2 cm, 3 cm, and even 4 cm for added convenience.
Mattress Core with Rubber Granulate:
A soft yet durable base that is both shock-absorbing and stable – the key impact-absorbing component of the Promat pasture mattress.
Poly pillow
The Poly Pillow is a plastic brisket board that ensures cows lie down correctly by preventing them from sliding too far forward.
Its well-thought-out shape maintains cow comfort and doesn’t restrict movement. Cows can comfortably rest their front legs over the pillow, and the rounded top ensures optimal blood circulation in the legs.
