“With these mats, they don't slip, and the mats stay firmly in place. As the cattle move through the system, they're not slipping or sliding. ”
David Throwbridge, Gregory Feedlots
The Chute Mat is designed for use in cattle handling areas such as squeeze chutes, alleyways, scales, and load-out zones. Its high-traction surface helps prevent slips and falls, while its durable construction withstands the stress of frequent animal movement in these high-impact locations.
Cleaning is simple:
Remove debris with a broom, scraper, or hose.
Wash with warm water and a mild, non-corrosive detergent.
Rinse thoroughly to remove all soap and dirt.
Allow to dry or drain before the next use.
For biosecurity, you can apply a livestock-safe disinfectant following the manufacturer’s instructions. Avoid harsh chemicals or petroleum-based cleaners, as they can damage the mat’s surface.
With proper installation and care, the Chute Mat can last many years even under heavy traffic. Its thick, high-quality rubber resists wear from animal hooves, moisture, and cleaning routines. Lifespan will vary based on usage intensity, but it is built to perform in demanding cattle-handling environments.
Absolutely. The Chute Mat is engineered from dense, heavy-duty rubber that easily supports the weight of large cattle, including mature bulls. Its strength and stability ensure it won’t buckle, shift, or crack under heavy loads, providing a safe, durable surface for livestock and handlers.

Animat was quick to come down to our facility to design the plan and determine exactly how many mats we needed. Animat has been great to work with. They answered all my questions going into the project.

It is an investment.. But when you consider what your overall investment is in the cattle and their performance, you need to give those cattle very opportunity to perform at their utmost ability. 99

Animat's rubber flooring provides the cows with a comfortable surface to walk on in their travel lanes, at their feed bunks, and anywhere they move. While they're on our rotary, they stand on the rubber mats, which offers a soft, supportive surface for them to stand on.
