Cattle slats, concrete slats and solid covers

These come in a range of formats, each developed to meet a precise need. All are available in standard, customised and bespoke options and are all manufactured under the strictest quality control procedures.

Diagonal slats

Our diagonal cattle slats are designed to fit directly over our 1000mm wide channels. They are the ideal solution for passageways, across the end of buildings, doorways or any scraped passage areas.

The angle of the slats allows the muck to easily cut away whichever way the scraper passes over leaving a clean surface. This design of slat must be supported along the long sides – it is not suitable for use over a wide span.

How do cattle slats support dairy productions?

Cattle slats are crucial in improving the efficiency of dairy production. Firstly, our elevated flooring solutions improve waste management and drainage, ensuring the environment remains clean and hygienic for cows. Cattle slats also improve air circulation, reduce muck and slurry and support the overall health and productivity of the herd.

We supply many cattle slats, concrete slats and solid covers, supporting dairy farms and the agricultural industry.

Are cattle slats slip resistant?

Yes, all cattle slats at Wolfenden Concrete are slip resistant and designed for the comfort of your livestock. The non-slip finish ensures every slat is cow hoof friendly, reducing the likelihood of injuries, minimising slips and falls and leading to better overall health.

How easy is it to maintain our cattle slats?

The design of our cattle slats makes them very easy to clean. Slats ensure slurry and waste are easily drained from the surface, whilst cleaning the slats does not affect their wear and tear. This makes them an ideal choice for all dairy farmers, reducing time and energy spent on maintenance.
