How many quality cattle have you lost because of slippery concrete floors, alleys, yards and holding pens? Concrete grooving can avoid this costly loss.

Concrete Grooving is a low cost, effective method of providing a skid and slip resistant surface for men, machines and livestock.

Improve heat detection, milk production and footing.

Reduce skidding animals, hoof trimming, broken legs and splits.

Concrete Grooving Fact Sheet

1.

Reduces or eliminates splits and injuries.
2.

Good footing helps cows eat better, especially the timid ones.
3.

5.

Reduces udder and teat injuries, which results in lower medical costs and less mastitis.
6.

Improves heat detection because cows aren't afraid of being mounted.
7.

Helps to increase milk production.
8.

Easy cleaning grooves, more sanitary than rough surfaces, improves water run off.
9.

Protects manure-handling equipment from damage by concrete chips or sand.
10.

Floors are safer for people and machines.
11.

Minimum down time — our equipment grooves up to 1000 square feet per hour.
12.

Cows can walk on the grooved area immediately, no clean-up required.
13.

Eliminates the cost of using sand, grit, etc.
14.

Our grooving machine is quiet; jobs can be done with cows in barn.
15.

Our method is spark, dust and chip free using 1/2" wide diamond blades.
16.

We do all the work; your manpower can be performing normal duties.
