Abstract (en)

[origin: WO9400978A1] A water-impermeable, resilient and compressible sheet material suitable for use as animal bedding, preferably for horses, is formed from a natural or synthetic rubber or plastics material. It has grooves (54) in its upper surface ans columns (58) to space it above a stable floor. The sheets are linked by plates (see figure 7) engaging the columns adjacent the sheet edges. The linking plates leave spaces between the mats so that urine and other liquids run between the mats. If the stable floor slopes the liquid runsbeneath the mats down the slope. The grooves (54) help prevent splashing and conduction liquids to the mat edges. Other composite materials are shown in figures 1 to 4 and can be used as bedding or for protective purposes.
