Introducing Kura The Ultimate Heavy-Duty Mat for Feedpads, Yards, and Entry/Exits.

NumatAGRI has been leading the rubber matting industry for over 30 years. Kura mats have demonstrated outstanding performance and quality in real farm conditions. Impressively, on some farms, our Kura mats are still operational and in place after 20 years.

The Hero of Durability While others provide limited five-year guarantees, our confidence in Kura is demonstrated through our solid ten-year promise. Manufactured from premium German-sourced recycled rubber, our mats outperform others in both durability and sustainability. Alternative mat options, typically sourced from other regions, lack in longevity and do not meet the same environmental standards.

Perfect Fit, Less Waste Kura mats feature a multiflex interlock system and waterjet-cut edges, ensuring a seamless fit from any angle, minimising waste, and boosting durability. In contrast to moulded edges that often result in poor joins and wastage, Kura provides farmers with a smarter design for a longer-lasting, cost-effective solution.

Easy To Clean & Grippy, Non Slip Kura's enhanced grip profile ensures better grip and simplifies flood washing. Whereas some designs may obstruct proper flood wash and trap stones, increasing the risk of cow lameness.

Our countersunk washer evenly distributes pressure, reducing mat wear. Additionally, our 80mm long anchor combined with our nylon fixing sleeve securely grips within concrete for a robust hold.

In contrast, alternative systems offer a shorter, less secure fix, resulting in quicker deterioration and loosening of the mat.

Core Strength Kura mats are distinguished by their 25mm thickness and a 5mm stud for superior comfort and durability. The core of our mat is a robust 20mm, ensuring extended longevity. Alternative mats may boast a 23mm thickness, but with only a 15mm core, they have a significantly reduced lifespan.

Airlie Lodge's success story speaks volumes about the benefits of platform matting.

Located in the rural community of Orini in the Waikato region is Airlie Lodge.

The dairy farm is responsible for milking 780 cows on 238 hectares of land.

In 2022, sharemilker Graeme Bell recognised that the previous matting on the farm’s rotary platform was wearing down. They also had slipping issues with the steel platform.

Graeme approached NumatAGRI for the best rubber matting solutions to install in these areas.

Having had rubber matting previously, Graeme knew that installing such purpose-built surfacing

“Cows are really comfortable on it, and we no longer have the slipping issue.”

Sharemilker: Graeme Bell, Orini, Waikato

could safeguard hooves, minimise slips and improve cow flow during milking. He also knew that the matting could help lower maintenance costs and, by safeguarding the surface beneath it, keep these areas from further wear and tear. It was not a matter of ‘if’, but ‘what’ matting should be installed.

Exclusive Offer

The recommended approach was to install Platform Mat on the 50-bail rotary platform. Since the arrival of the new matting Graeme has seen cows come more comfortably and readily into the milking shed.

For a limited time, call and quote the code HEAVYDUTY24 when ordering to secure your Platform Mat deal. Reduce the risk of slips and create a safer, more productive milking environment.

Cow flow has improved, and the previous slipping issue has disappeared.
