Are Stable Mats Worth the Money?

Even though Horse Mats made of rubber have been around for a long time, little is known about what they do and how they help. Or is it simply a considerate gesture on behalf of your horse or pony? Well, I hope I was able to clarify this for you!

There are a surprising number of advantages to installing mats alone. I've listed them all below in an effort to be clear.

Stable Mat Positives

Warmth: The warmth provided by a firm mat: Stable mats can provide your pens with a great deal of warmth, particularly in the colder time of year. The solid rubber matting, which has a thickness of 17 millimeters, is a great insulator and helps keep the cold out of the concrete floor!

Protection: How frequently does your horse catch or scrape its hocks? With mats, this might be a thing of the past! reducing the likelihood of costly cuts and scrapes or vet bills! The rubber measuring 17 millimeters provides superior protection from the concrete floor. We also need to mat them to keep them safe from doors and walls, but that's a different topic for another day.

Making savings: Who doesn't want to cut costs? The amount you and your pony can manage really depends on you. As a general rule, we recommend reducing the bed by a third, but you should use common sense. Add more bedding if most of it is damp when you enter; If there is a lot of dry bedding, take some out. Despite its superiority, the mat lacks pores, necessitating the use of bedding to collect all urine.

Saving Time: Because no one has enough time in their lives, effective time management is essential. Because there is less bedding, there is less to clean. You can get in and out quickly using a straightforward sweep pattern, giving you time to take a lengthy shower and dry your hair. We have all brought semi-wet hair to work, and in the afternoon, we had to deal with frizzy hair.)

The Drawbacks of Matting

Don't worry! Don't be put off by the minor drawbacks because we have a way around them. I know it seems odd that we should tell you about these, but we have to because you need to know the whole story!

Weight: Each mat that can break a back is about 38-40 KG in weight. The reason for the weight is that it will be easier for your pony to move around if you can move around easily. This is absolutely not what you want because if they move them around, you will constantly need to clean them out and put them back where they belong. Rubber Horse Mats can be lowered at any time because they are quite heavy! If you don't want to move them, don't worry! You don't have to install any of our products because we provide free full installation! On each page, there is a button that says "quote me for fitting." If you click that button, we can arrange that for you.

Cleaning: Cleaning the mats on occasion is necessary. If you installed them yourself or had loose-laid installation, at least once a year. Similarly, you could have to do it all the more often assuming that your pony is very wet. If you don't want to seal your mats, all you need to do is seal them. Because our installation is completely sealed and prevents anything from getting underneath it, you only need to hose the mats down and allow them to dry. a lot simpler!
