always comes down to: What is the best for our cows?”

In her opinion, consistency is key. “Only high-quality rubber mat/mattresses keep their quality features over a long period of time.”

A consistent high-quality rubber mat/mattress gives a cow the convenience she needs to feel safe underfoot to reduce stress. Slippery and uneven ground is a stressor to the dairy cow.

Elevated stress hormone levels can have a negative effect on milk yield, reproductivity and even affect her unborn offspring.

A testimony to the quality of Huber mats and mattresses is the fact that there have been 0% warranty claims over the last 30 years. Huber comes with a 15-year regressive warranty.

“Good facilities allow farmers to expand production and incomes and add to the asset value of the farm. They also lead to a better quality of life for the farm family by reducing the workload and the drudgery. In many cases, particularly on dairy farms, buildings pay for themselves over a 7-10 year period. This is especially true when capital grant and tax savings are available.”
