HIGHEST QUALITY, LONGEST LASTING CORE COMPONENTS

ComfortStall delivers consistent cushioning to support comfortable rest, reduce concussion, and encourage natural movement — ideal for everyday stabling, box rest, and recovery periods.

Frequently used and trusted in veterinary settings for stabling, recovery and knockdown boxes, ComfortStall is designed to support horses when comfort and stability matter most.

The sealed surface prevents seepage of urine and other fluids into the subfloor, unlike traditional mats where liquids can collect beneath seams, leading to odours and hygiene issues. With less bedding required for comfort, daily mucking out is faster and ongoing bedding costs are reduced.

Made from highest-quality materials and designed to last up to 20 years, ComfortStall offers long-term comfort and durability for both horses and stable owners.

Conventional Mats vs. Comfortstall

Conventional Mats

Comfortstall

Traditional rubber matting offer very little comfort or protection for your horse.

Laid over hard surfaces like concrete or compacted earth, standard mats are only around 3% softer than the floor beneath, providing minimal cushioning and support.

Their interlocking ‘jigsaw’ design also creates gaps where urine, manure and soiled bedding can seep through and become trapped underneath—leading to hidden bacteria build-up and ongoing hygiene issues.

As urine breaks down, it releases ammonia gases, negatively impacting stable air quality and your horse’s respiratory health.

ComfortStall eliminates these problems with a sealed, cushioned, wall-to-wall system—providing the equivalent comfort of 6" of wood shavings—for superior comfort, cleaner stables and healthier air.

Comfortstall Testimonials

“Our vet said had he not been on ComfortStall, he would not be alive,” Miranda explains. “He was that crippled. A lot of horses or ponies could not have tolerated that pain or simply being in the stable for that long, but with the foam supporting him and such a comfortable environment, Bertie was able to do it.”

"ComfortStall flooring has been a game changer in our knock down boxes. The floors are easy to clean, hard wearing and provide just the right amount of grip for a horse recovering from surgery. The service we receive from the team is excellent and nothing is too much trouble."

Matt Hecking, Hospital Manager for Oakham Equine Vets:

"Today we christened our new recovery box with two high end surgeries. One was a stifle arthroscopy and the other a tie back/hobday combination. Both horses recovered super well, with the non slippy, sealed and padded walls and floor giving them plenty of comfort and hygiene!”

Tullyraine Equine Clinic, Northern Ireland

“Charlie, our first patient to use the ComfortStall flooring. He seemed to love the flooring and seemed very comfortable throughout his stay...‘Our grooms love it as it is so easy to look after’ and when Charlie knocked over his water bucket we noticed that this did not make the floor slippy. ‘We set the stable up with half the amount of shavings that we would normally use for a bed [...] which is very encouraging from a financial point of view!’

University of Glasgow, School of Veterinary Medicine

“We still have the original foam in all of the recovery stalls since 2005. Overall, it appears to be the best surface we have come across. In my opinion, as a horse owner, I think it is far superior to regular rubber mats for normal stabling. Nothing is ever easy with horses, but this flooring would **reduce the labor and bedding expense and help ensure the horse’s soundness and comfort.”— Ann Townsend-Pors, LVTAnesthesia Dept, Equine Hospital, Cornell University Hospital for Animals

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?

While most rubber stable mats require multiple sheets to fit a stable, ComfortStall’s IronClad TopCover is installed as a single piece of material that using a boxcutter, you will trim to the individual size for your needs. The impermeable surface allows for a completely sealed stable floor with no escape routes for urine, muck, or bedding.

How do I install ComfortStall?

Your ComfortStall flooring will be professionally installed by one of our trusted fitters, ensuring a high-quality, expert finish. Installation typically takes one day, and we recommend keeping your horse out of the stable for 24 hours to allow the adhesive to fully cure.

Do you need to use bedding with rubber stable mats? If so, what bedding is best to use?

While standard rubber stable matting offers limited cushion and requires a considerable amount of bedding to provide support to your horse, ComfortStall on its own gives your horse all the cushion he requires. With ComfortStall, we suggest using only a small amount of absorbent bedding where your horse most frequently urinates to soak up any liquids.

How do I clean stable rubber mats?

Standard rubber stable mats are labour intensive to clean as they are heavy and messy. ComfortStall however, is very easy to clean, with its impermeable Ironclad TopCover. Simply remove any soiled bedding, it can be hose or power washed daily also.

Do rubber stable mats absorb urine?

Standard rubber stable mats do not absorb urine, but the gaps in between the mats allow for urine to seep through to the subsurface where it tends to pool. This creates the perfect environment for urea to react with bacteria and off-gas as the respiratory irritant ammonia. Since ComfortStall is both impermeable and fully sealed, urine stays on top of the TopCover and is easily removed when mucking out or with a quick wash or sweep.

How do I muck out a stable with rubber matting?

Remove the droppings and wet bedding with a shavings fork or small shovel. ComfortStall on its own gives your horse all the cushion he requires. However, we suggest using a small amount of absorbent bedding where your horse most frequently urinates to soak up any liquids. If using bedding, remove the wet shavings and sweep out. If you are not using bedding the urine can be swept or washed out of the stable. This should only take 5-10 mins.

Will ComfortStall puncture or tear?

ComfortStall’s IronClad TopCover is incredibly durable and will not puncture or tear easily. However, we would advise to not fit studs or allow a horse with studs fitted to stand on ComfortStall, as this could cause damage to the TopCover. Standard nails and road studs are safe to stand on ComfortStall.

Are rubber stable mats slippery?

Rubber stable mats tend to be slippery when wet. However, ComfortStall’s IronClad TopCover is an anti-slip material. Additionally, the cushion provided by the orthopaedic foam causes the horse to sink slightly into the surface for additional grip.

Is ComfortStall stable flooring suitable for foaling boxes?

Yes, ComfortStall is ideal for foaling boxes. The orthopedic foam layer provides exceptional cushioning and support, which is crucial for both the mare and her newborn foal. The anti-slip rubber TopCover ensures a stable surface, reducing the risk of slips and falls. Additionally, the fully sealed design makes it easy to clean and maintain, helping to keep the foaling box hygienic and comfortable. ComfortStall’s features make it a great choice for creating a safe and supportive environment for foaling.

Is ComfortStall suitable for use in equine veterinary hospitals?

Yes, ComfortStall is suitable for use in veterinary hospitals. Its fully sealed design and durable, anti-slip rubber TopCover provide a hygienic and comfortable surface for recovery and treatment areas. The orthopaedic foam layer offers additional cushioning, which is beneficial for animals that may be recovering from surgery or illness. The easy-to-clean surface helps maintain a sterile environment, making ComfortStall an excellent choice for veterinary settings where cleanliness and animal comfort are top priorities.
