Rubber Stable Matting

Across the UK there are many different construction methods for Stables, Boxes and Shelters.

Our rubber flooring has been laid on earth, crushed lime and chalk, crushed concrete, compressed
sand, concrete, brick and cobble bases - in fact - almost every possible surface you can find!

Our Solid Rubber Mat system uses high quality synthetic rubber in it's composition. All solid rubber
mats include a percentage of 'fillers' - either simple Carbon Black or inert ground rubber particle - the
amount of this recylced material determines the quality of the end product. To meet our
environmental policy we include a percentage of this material, ensuring that our mats are produced
to give optimum performance and longevity. Claims of 100% new rubber are not possible as all mats
include fillers, even if only Carbon Black - and this mostly comes from recycled rubber! Our solid
rubber mats carry a 10 year replacement guarantee (stc) With over 30 years in the Rubber
industry - we know Rubber!

Crumb mat systems are also available, these mats in general have mortice and tenon 'plug-in' joints,
are fully porous and have underside multi-direction drainage channels. To ensure free-flow of waste
water, these mats need to be laid onto good floors with adequate drainage - either a good fall, or
combined fall and underfloor drains. While crumb systems are more comfortable, with thickness of
30mm and 40mm as standard, they do need to be maintained regularly to ensure grease build-up on
the surface does not retain moisture (and bacteria) in the mat.

We also suppy an EVA/Rubber blended foam mat (new standard is Dark Green) particularly useful in foaling boxes. This mat is
light-weight, can be supplied straight edged or dovetailed in 22mm thickness.
