CUBICLES

Their cubicles made from plastic and rubber offer superior cow comfort, increasing productivity and maximising performance.
Easyfix Cow Cubicles are designed to allow unrestricted lunge space which ensures cows can easily manoeuvre within the cubicle spaces. Cows are more confident and stress free in EASYFIX cubicles, because the unique design will allow cows to stand up and lie down without fear of injury.

The revolutionary EASYFIX Cow Cubicles delivers the freedom of the outdoors-indoors and is proven to maximise cow comfort, welfare and thrive. There are three patented and innovative designs of the EASYFIX cubicles: The EASYFIX Dream, Calm and Siesta.


Testimonials

“In our shed we have both steel cubicles and EASYFIX Calm Cubicles, it is noticeable that cows choose the EASYFIX cubicles to lie in. Cows are happier knowing they have room to lie down and stand up easily,” commented Shaun Rennie, Brocklehill.

“We installed EASYFIX cubicles in a quarter of the cow shed one year ago, they were very easy to install and don’t require concrete to be broken. Cows adjusted very well, the EASYFIX cubicles are always full, I’ve never seen cows struggle or stuck in them, with the flexibility cows don’t get rubbed either,” Thomas Ralston, Kilkivan.

 "EASYFIX cubicles have been really good for cow comfort, allowing cows to be much more relaxed and comfortable with the flexibility and movement of the cubicles - the cows love them. We first put them in for the fresh calved group and then we replaced cubicles in the low yielding group with EASYFIX cubicles, and next to be replaced will be the ones in the high yielding group - we wouldn't use anything else for cows now," said Euan Lawrie, Grangehall.

Testimonials
“We are really pleased with EASYFIX Slat Mats, they save feet and joints on our cattle housed on slats. The cattle happily lie on them, including newly spained calves that will go in and lie down straight away. The first EASYFIX slat mats we installed was three years ago, they’ve never been slippy and are lasting well. They aren’t wearing or busting with cows feet at the feed barrier which has been an issue in the past with other brands,” said Andy Paton, Craig Farm.

Cow Mats & Mattresses

Enhancing Cow Comfort with EASYFIX Cow Mats and Mattresses.

There are numerous benefits associated with installing EASYFIX cow mats and mattresses in your cattle housing facility. EASYFIX strive to make cows more comfortable within their environment, which is why they design, manufacture and develop the best performing solutions on the market worldwide.

Increasing productivity of your dairy herd by providing enhanced Cow Comfort.
Increased lying times = higher milk yields. Research shows that cows can lie for up to 14 hours a day. Therefore, the more comfortable you make the cows environment, the longer they will lie. Cows produce 5 times more milk while lying down versus standing. Studies have also highlighted that cows who fail to rest are much more likely to suffer from lameness. Easyfix offer an extensive range of cubicle matting solutions that are designed to suit a variety of cubicle styles and requirements.

Testimonials

“We installed EASYFIX mats in the cow shed, as well as EASYFIX cubicles. We are absolutely delighted with them both, the mats provided improved comfort with additional padding and are easily kept clean. The cubicles were appealing because of how flexible they were and since they were installed we haven’t had a cow stuck. We were so pleased with them that we have since added the same for the calving heifer shed,” Robin Barr, Clochkeil.
