ComfortStall FAQs

Are stable rubber mats toxic?

ComfortStall rubber topcoat features five layers of non-toxic vulcanised sheeting. Crumb rubber featured in geotextile flooring can be toxic and all rubber is toxic when burnt.

How many rubber mats do I need for my stable?

ComfortStall Stable Flooring is a bespoke product that features a rubber top cover provided as a single sheet. This seamless design offers superior hygiene by eliminating gaps where urine, muck, and bacteria could accumulate, making cleaning easier and more effective. Additionally, the single-sheet construction enhances durability and ensures a uniform, supportive surface that contributes to your horse’s comfort and well-being.

How is ComfortStall installed?

ComfortStall Stable Flooring is designed as a self-fit product, consisting of three main components: orthopedic foam, Ironclad TopCover, and anchor strips. For those who prefer professional installation, we also offer fitting services through an approved company.

To install ComfortStall yourself, ensure the stable is clean before starting. Begin by laying the foam sheets and trimming any excess. Use tape to hold the sheets together securely. Then, position the roll of TopCover in the middle of the foam and unroll it evenly across the stable. Next, attach the anchor strips to the walls using screws appropriate for the wall material (e.g., wood or concrete). Finally, trim any excess TopCover above the anchor strips. For specific instructions on fitting doorways and corners, please refer to the full installation manual.

Do I need to use bedding with ComfortStall Stable Flooring?

With ComfortStall Stable Flooring, most horse owners opt to use only a small amount of absorbent bedding in areas where the horse commonly urinates. The orthopedic foam layer provides ample comfort, so bedding is not needed for cushioning. We recommend using dust-extracted bedding to further enhance air quality and minimise respiratory irritants. This minimal bedding approach helps maintain a cleaner environment, reduces mucking out time, and effectively manages moisture.

How do I clean Comfortstall stable flooring?

Cleaning ComfortStall Stable Flooring is straightforward and efficient. Begin by removing any bedding and solid waste from the surface. Next, use a hose or pressure washer to rinse the flooring thoroughly, ensuring all urine and dirt are washed away. For deeper cleaning, you can use a mild, horse-safe disinfectant to sanitize the surface. Since ComfortStall is fully sealed, there are no gaps for waste to seep underneath, making it easy to maintain a hygienic environment. Allow the floor to dry completely before reintroducing bedding or horses to the stable.

The flexibility of the design allows for relocation, provided the new space can accommodate the dimensions of the existing TopCover and components.
