Can I Use Rubber Floors on My Farm?
Absolutely! Perfect Surfaces’ VersaRUBBER® farm mats and DuraRUBBER® equine and livestock mats are designed with the long-lasting durability required to withstand any agricultural application.

How Do I Clean Rubber Floors?
Aside from their tough durability, VersaRUBBER® ag mats and DuraRUBBER® rubber agricultural floors are also easy to clean and maintain—simply sweep or hose off dirt and debris with no downtime. For a deeper clean on stubborn messes, use a neutral pH cleaner and degreaser (like CleanBreak) with a sponge mop and water. It is very important to keep in mind that petroleum or citrus-based products should not be used on rubber animal flooring.
Is Rubber Agricultural Flooring Waterproof?
You bet it is! While DuraRUBBER® livestock & equine rubber mats provide multidirectional drainage that channels moisture beneath the surface, VersaRUBBER® rubber farm mats have a nonporous surface that easily repels liquids and reduces odor-causing bacteria. Seamless LongHornFLO pad and pour animal floors are 100% nonporous, preventing moisture from permeating the surface.
How are Agriculture Flooring Mats Installed?
Uniquely reversible DuraRUBBER® premium cow mats can be installed in two different ways: for anti-fatigue and multidirectional drainage, install the non-slip honeycomb surface facing up, and for maximum traction and to eliminate surface moisture, install the FlowGRIP surface side facing up. DuraRUBBER® horse stall mats can only be loose-laid, while VersaRUBBER® sheep stall mats can be either loose-laid or installed using tape or glue.
Can Agricultural Rubber Flooring Be Used Outdoors?
Of course! Tough and versatile DuraRUBBER® cow rubber mats VersaRUBBER® horse rubber mats are ideal for any indoor or outdoor agricultural application that needs added traction and cushion. Perfect Surfaces’ rubber farm mats are designed to withstand heavy-duty weight without deformation, are resistant to abrasion and wear, and are virtually unaffected by extreme weather conditions.
