Silage Mats (40kg Heavy Duty)
Our heavy duty
40kg Silage mats are used to cover silage or maize in pits. The
heavy 2m x 1m x 18mm silage mats will not blow off or lift in the
wind. The uniform distribution of the weight across the pit ensures
that a tight air seal is maintained.
Our 40kg Silage
Mats provide total protetion against birds. Birds cannot peck
through the silage mats. The covered lifting handles seal up,
providing total protection.
Economic
Case: The better the seal the better the
quality of silage. Higher quality wet feed stock translates
directly into milk Quality / yield in Diary herds and weight gain
in Livestock
Environment argument:
Using the Silage mats slows down the decomposition process. This
inturn dramatically reduces the volume of
effluent from the the silage pit.
Efficiency:
The ease of handling, storage and movement around the farmyard on
pallets improves efficiency.
Health
and safety: Eliminates problems associated with using
tyres to weigh down silage covers:
Eliminates risk
of infection from metal wire protruding from old used tyre that can
pierce the skin and cause tetanus or blood poisoning
Eliminates risk
of contamination of feed stock from metal decomposition in old
tyres.
Protects farm
labourers: As there are no tyres,this removes hundreds of pools of
stagnant water
thereby
removing a breeding area for infection such as veils
disease.
