Dairy Ulti-Mat™

Ulti-Mat™ is an all-rubber, low maintenance cow bedding mattress which provides your herd the comfort and longevity necessary for increased milk production. This 2" or 3" thick mattress is fixed into place, stays level and recovers to its original shape after cow movement. Customers report that the comfort of the mattress is the same today as it was ten years ago.

After just a few days, the comfortable and consistent rest provided by Ulti-Mat™ leads to cows lying down more and staying longer in their stalls. Since the laying position for a cow allows more blood to flow through the mammary system, this results in higher milk production and higher profits.

Ulti-Mat™ can be installed in both free-stall and tie-stall barns. Once the stall framework is in place and fastened to the floor, mattresses are laid down. To create a seamless construction, a top cover is wrapped around, enclosing the mattress and frame, and is then firmly locked into place.

Choose a woven, water-proof top cover or a non-woven, water-resistant cover treated to kill bacteria. The textured rubber of the woven cover helps keep the bedding in place and is non-skid even when wet. The fabric is treated throughout. Hot wax, rolled onto the surface, prevents moisture from penetrating the mattress cover. The inert properties of Ulti-Mat™ will not promote fungus or bacterial growth.

For extra sanitation, use of a top surface bedding material is recommended.

Mattress pads are guaranteed providing the top cover is well maintained and free of holes. Covers can be replaced if a hole develops.

Ulti-Mat™ is made from recycled tire rubber that is shredded and passed through a powerful magnet to eliminate any metal. A pliable, water and acid resistant polyurethane adhesive is added and the mattress is molded under pressure to make it virtually indestructible.

Ulti-Mat™ is available in standard sizes, however mattresses can be custom produced for a precise fit.
