|
| Product Overview |
The Plastic Slatted Floor for Piglets is designed for nursery and weaning facilities where hygiene, grip, animal comfort and efficient manure removal are essential.
The molded plastic slat combines V-shaped bar geometry with rounded upper surfaces to promote manure drainage while providing a comfortable standing and walking surface. Raised grip features improve traction for young pigs and support secure movement throughout the pen.
The modular flooring can be installed on galvanized steel or fiberglass support systems and integrated with solid resting areas, heating zones and other piglet flooring components. Dimensions and floor layouts can be customized according to project requirements.

| Key Features |
- Piglet-Friendly Plastic Surface: Designed for young pigs in nursery and weaning housing.
- V-Shaped Bar Profile: Promotes efficient manure drainage through the floor openings.
- Rounded Upper Surface: Provides comfortable animal contact and simplifies cleaning.
- Enhanced Grip: Raised surface features improve traction for piglets.
- Hygienic Design: Open slat geometry helps separate animals from manure and liquids.
- Lightweight Construction: Plastic modules are convenient to handle during installation and maintenance.
- Modular Installation: Compatible with steel, fiberglass and project-specific support systems.
- Flexible Floor Layout: Can be combined with more solid sections or other flooring materials according to barn requirements.
|
| Structural Components |
- Molded Plastic Slat: Main load-bearing walking surface for piglets.
- V-Shaped Slat Bars: Guide manure and liquid downward through the floor openings.
- Grip Elevations: Raised surface details improve hoof traction.
- Interlocking Edges: Connect adjacent floor modules into a continuous flooring surface.
- Support Beams: Galvanized steel or fiberglass supports carry the flooring above the manure pit.
- Support Legs: Height-adjustable plastic support legs can be used where required.
- Wall and Edge Supports: Brackets or structural fittings support perimeter floor sections.
|
| Working Principle / Structural Principle |
The plastic modules are installed above a manure pit or collection channel on suitable support beams. Piglets stand, walk and rest on the molded upper surface while manure and liquids pass through the slotted openings.
The V-shaped underside and rounded bar geometry help reduce manure accumulation around the openings. Raised grip features improve footing, while the modular support structure distributes animal loads across the underlying beams.
Different slatted and solid-area modules can be combined to create separate activity, dunging and resting zones within the same nursery pen.

| Installation & Maintenance |
Installation:
- Confirm manure-pit dimensions, finished floor elevation and flooring layout.
- Install galvanized steel or fiberglass support members according to the approved support spacing.
- Check support level and structural alignment before laying floor modules.
- Position and interlock adjacent plastic slats to create a stable floor surface.
- Install solid-area modules, heating plates or transition flooring where required.
- Use wall supports, edge brackets or adjustable legs according to the structural design.
- Check all joints, supports and floor edges before introducing animals.
Maintenance:
- Wash and disinfect flooring between production batches.
- Keep slat openings free from excessive manure and feed accumulation.
- Inspect modules periodically for cracks, deformation or abnormal wear.
- Check support beams, brackets and adjustable legs during routine maintenance.
- Replace damaged modules individually when required.
- Verify that all floor sections remain securely seated and level.

| Product FAQ |
Q: What pigs are suitable for this plastic slatted floor?
A: It is designed primarily for piglets and weaner pigs. The referenced flooring system is intended for animals up to approximately 50 kg.
Q: How does the floor improve manure drainage?
A: V-shaped bar geometry and open slots allow manure and liquids to pass efficiently into the manure collection area below.
Q: Does the plastic surface provide good grip?
A: Yes. Raised grip features are incorporated into the walking surface to improve traction for young pigs.
Q: Are more solid flooring options available?
A: Yes. High-solid-area and fully solid configurations can be incorporated to create resting or climate-controlled zones.
Q: What supports can be used under the floor?
A: Galvanized steel supports, fiberglass strips and height-adjustable support legs can be selected according to project requirements.
Q: Can heating areas be integrated?
A: Yes. The modular floor layout can be coordinated with heating plates or solid piglet resting areas.
Q: Can the floor dimensions be customized?
A: Yes. Standard modules can be combined or project-specific dimensions can be selected according to the required barn layout.
Q: What information is required for quotation?
A: Recommended information includes piglet weight range, barn drawings, pen dimensions, manure-pit dimensions, required floor area, support system and preferred solid-to-slatted floor layout.
