Frequently Asked Questions

Our plates are made from high-quality recycled PVC granulate with high mechanical strength.

The surface has rubber-like characteristics: anti-slip, antibacterial and easy to clean. The material is UV-stable, frost-resistant and impervious to oils and weathering.

This combines sustainability with industrial quality.

The large heavy-duty plates (120×80 cm) weigh approximately 35 kg each. Their high self-weight ensures they stay securely in place without shifting. No screwing required.

The compact universal mats (50×50 cm) weigh approximately 6.5 kg each.

We offer three product lines: The Heavy-Duty Plate (120×80 cm, 32 mm thick), the Universal Mat (50×50 cm, 55 mm with honeycomb structure) and the Pro Drainage Mat (125×80 cm, 40 mm). View all products in our Shop.

Yes, they are ideal. The anti-slip surface protects hooves, joints and tendons.

Stable benefits:

• Absorb vibrations and footfall noise. Horses rest noticeably more frequently and for longer.
• Bedding requirements are significantly reduced, as only a minimal amount of shavings is needed for urine absorption.
• Unlike straw, the PVC mats do not rot and produce no dust. Ideal for horses with allergies.
• Thermally insulating against ground cold.

The large plates (120×80 cm) are laid in a floating bond using connection elements on two edges. Simply lay them on the surface, plate by plate.

No levelling or extensive ground preparation is needed. The plates adapt to the terrain shape.

The 50×50 cm mats feature a tool-free tongue-and-groove interlocking system. No screwing, no adhesive, no drying time.

No. Installation is completely tool-free. The rebate or click system allows the plates to simply snap together. For cutting (if needed), a standard jigsaw is sufficient.

The plates can be easily cleaned with a pressure washer, garden hose or broom. The PVC material is water-repellent and does not absorb dirt or odours.

Unlike straw, the mats do not rot and produce no dust. A hygienic advantage especially in stable environments.

Yes. The plates can be laid on a wide variety of surfaces:

• Gravel
• Concrete
