  • Often used in farrowing crates and stalls

Overview

Cast iron slats are strong, last many years and are often used in farrowing crates and gestation stalls. The surface is shaped to give grip and drain well. They are heavy and conduct heat, so a heated creep area or a plastic floor is often used for piglets.

Frequently asked questions

Does cast iron make piglets cold?

Metal conducts heat, so the creep area normally has a warm plastic floor or a mat. We plan the floor together with the heating.

Is cast iron heavier to install?

It is heavier than plastic, so handling needs more care. Supports are sized for the weight.

Which floor material should I choose?

Plastic is warm and light and suits piglets; cast iron is strong and often used in crates; concrete is economical for finishing and sow areas. Many farms use a mix by stage.

How wide should the slots be?

Slot width depends on the pig age and weight. We recommend a width for each stage once we know the pig type and the pit.

Can you supply beams as well?

Yes. FRP and concrete beams are part of the building range, and are matched to the span and the floor load.

Can I mix floor types in one house?

Yes. Many farms use plastic in nursery and farrowing rooms, and concrete in finishing houses.

How do I clean slatted floors?

High-pressure washing between batches; the open design lets water and manure fall into the pit.

Are sizes and configurations fixed?

No. Dimensions, materials and configuration are customised to your herd size, climate and local rules, and agreed with you before quotation.

Are the specifications on your product pages final?

They are typical reference values to help you compare. Final specifications are confirmed with you before quotation.

Who installs the equipment?

Our installation teams install and commission the equipment. The scope for each project is agreed in the contract.

What warranty do you give?

Warranty terms depend on the equipment and are agreed per project in the contract.
