Soft Mountain Mattress

Description

Why Choose Soft Mountain Mattress for Your Herd?

• Maximised Milk Yield Through Comfort
  The hybrid latex and PU foam system creates a contouring “soft surface” that supports longer, uninterrupted lying bouts, which are essential for optimal milk production.
• Superior Joint Protection & Lower Bearing Pressure
  The latex core reduces bearing pressure to approximately 7.5 N/cm², lowering stress on joints and helping reduce lameness, hock lesions, and mobility issues.
• Designed for Robotic Milking (AMS) Systems
  The PU foam layer absorbs movement as cows enter and exit cubicles, improving stability and encouraging frequent cubicle use, supporting voluntary robot visits.
• Hygienic, DLG-Tested Surface
  A non-porous, DLG-approved rubber top cover allows fast scraping and cleaning, reducing bacterial build-up, SCC risk, and environmental mastitis pressure.
• Continuous Roll Biosecurity Design
  The seamless system removes joints and gaps where bacteria accumulate, improving hygiene and reducing cleaning time.
• 24/7 Durability with Anti-Sag Performance
  A reinforced 75 Shore A rubber top cover maintains structure under continuous use, resisting compaction, depressions, and stall aversion over time.
• Natural Temperature Regulation
  Breathable latex improves airflow and thermal comfort, supporting longer lying periods and better overall cow performance.

What the Soft Mountain Mattress Delivers on Farm

Designed specifically for robotic dairy systems, the Soft Mountain Mattress maintains a consistent, hygienic resting surface that supports cow health and robot efficiency.

Its durable construction ensures a stable lying area that remains a “preferred resting site,” helping drive consistent robot attendance while improving mobility scores and herd welfare.

The easy-clean surface and continuous roll system significantly reduce labour time and improve overall housing hygiene.

Easy Installation

Engineered for fast, secure, low-disruption installation:

• Rapid Roll-Out Coverage: Efficient installation across large robotic housing systems
• Secure Fixing System: Stainless steel Rawplug concrete fixings ensure long-term stability
• Tight Fit Design: Prevents movement and reduces wear on the top cover
• Minimal Disruption: Can be installed without dismantling cubicle infrastructure

Frequently Asked Questions

What are the benefits of the Soft Mountain Mattress?
It combines latex and PU foam to reduce bearing pressure (~7.5 N/cm²), improving joint health and encouraging 12–14 hours of daily lying time to support milk yield.

Is it suitable for robotic dairy systems?
Yes. It is designed specifically for AMS housing, supporting cow movement, reducing stress during robot visits, and maintaining a consistent resting environment.

Is it easy to install?
Yes. The continuous roll system allows fast installation with stainless steel fixings and minimal disruption to existing cubicle layouts.

How durable is it?
It is built with a 75 Shore A reinforced rubber top cover designed for 24/7 robotic housing, resisting wear, compaction, and surface depressions.

Why choose a premium mattress for AMS housing?
It improves hygiene, reduces bacterial build-up, supports cleaner teats for robotic milking systems, and reduces labour through easier cleaning.

Can I get help selecting the right specification?
Yes. The Intershape team can advise on thickness, layout, and suitability for your herd’s weight and production level.
