This innovative flooring system brings a multitude of benefits that optimize swine management practices and significantly enhance overall productivity. Explore the enduring success and key advantages of Faroex flooring, based on real-world experiences from seasoned swine producers.

Superior Traction and Comfort

Faroex flooring features a unique high-low finger design that provides exceptional traction for sows and piglets. This enhanced grip promotes confident movement for sows and supports piglet activity, encouraging natural behaviors and contributing to improved herd health.

Effortless Cleaning and Hygiene

One of the standout features of Faroex flooring is its ease of cleaning and maintenance. The slats’ design facilitates efficient waste removal, minimizing manual labor and reducing the risk of bacterial buildup. This promotes a cleaner and healthier environment for both animals and workers.

Longevity and Durability

Crafted from durable fiberglass composite material, Faroex flooring offers outstanding longevity and durability. The robust construction ensures resistance to wear and tear, providing a long-lasting flooring solution that withstands the demands of intensive swine operations.

Temperature Neutrality

Unlike traditional metal flooring options, Faroex slats remain temperature-neutral. This characteristic prevents overheating and discourages piglets from seeking warmth under the sow, potentially reducing instances of crushing and improving overall animal welfare.

Versatility and Ease of Installation

Faroex flooring is designed for versatility, suitable for various stages of swine production, including farrowing, nursery, and finishing. The straightforward installation process, coupled with its adaptability to different facility layouts, makes Faroex flooring a practical and efficient choice for swine producers.
