Barn flooring is a simple solution to several common problems. Many animals suffer from joint problems. Barn mats can help alleviate some of the symptoms of arthritis by providing a softer surface to stand on, while giving insulation from the cold ground. A rubber stall mat is also made of eco-friendly material, giving peace of mind to eco-conscious individuals. The recycled materials are also very durable because they come from recycled tires, and assume their properties. Barn mats does not have to be used solely by animals, either. Many people live in converted barns that they have restored and turned into lofts, gyms, workspaces or man-caves.
Constantly standing and walking on cold, hard ground can exacerbate arthritic symptoms. Barn flooring is softer than concrete and provides insulation from the ground. It is easier on animals’ joints because the surface of the rubber matting is more elastic than the surface beneath it. Barn mats are an important part of any livestock or barnyard animals’ comfort and safety. Animals lying on hard ground can cut or scrape themselves when standing up again. The rubber material of these mats can help reduce the risk of such injuries occurring. A rubber stall mat can act as a protectant against chips, cracks and scratches on the ground beneath it. This also helps reduce the risk of injury because uneven, cracked surfaces can pose a hazard to livestock, especially since they weigh so much. Barn flooring is moisture resistant and some of the rubber barn mats come with a texture on the bottom-side that channels away fluids. This is a very useful and important feature because urine soaked bedding can give off ammonia-based fumes that could cause discomfort. By leading liquids away from the surface, barn flooring mats allow for an easier cleanup process.

Livestock flooring is an excellent choice for those who wish to help the environment. It is often made of recycled material, which comes from automotive tires.

This means that barn mats are able to handle frequent usage, moisture and pressure from the weight of livestock. They are able to withstand heavy foot traffic, like pawing at the ground, which horses tend to do at times. A rubber stall mat will protect your animals from damaging their hooves on the floor.
