Mayo Young Stock Mat
They are a very cost effective way to keep valuable young stock warm, clean & comfortable while teaching them to use a cubicle. They are made to the same high quality spec as the Mayo Original.
Key features:
- The Young Stock Mats are roughly 24mm deep x 2m x 1.4m with a textured surface and smooth underside.
- Because these mats are bigger in area than the others in the range, they are able to easily cover 2 or more young stock cubicles (dependent upon cubicle centre-to-centre measurement).
- The Young Stock Mats come trimmed or untrimmed.
- The untrimmed mat is the largest sheet available at the size quoted above but the edges will be uneven (waney edged).
- The trimmed version is roughly 75mm less in length and width than above.
- Same high spec and benefits as the Mayo Original.
- Extremely cost effective as 1 mat does 2+ cubicles.
- As they are Mayo Original grade they are perfect for supporting a pedigree bull also.
- Trimmed and untrimmed available (edges finished or edges rough).

May also be known as cow mattresses, rubber cow mats, cow mat, or cubicle mats.

No. The Mayo Mattress range is supplied at the correct width to ensure that the gap is ALWAYS underneath the cow cubicle division. The important area for hygiene is directly underneath the cow’s udder. In tests, the Mayo Mattress range was shown to be the most hygienic surface as it is 100% non-absorbent and can never become absorbent even as it ages. This is due to the unique structure of the product. Of course, fitting them with the Mayo Strip will cover this gap and alleviate all concern on this front.
No. The air content of the Mayo Mattress range is permanent. It can never be released and the amount of material used during manufacture is graded to prevent the air cells collapsing. It can sometimes be observed that the back edge of a mat can get thinner. This is true as there is no material to support the cells. However, even one inch into the mat the product will be the same original thickness. This is normal and has no impact on the mat’s performance.

Q&A's
Question: What is the difference between a cow mat and a cow mattress? Answer:It depends on your definition. The true definition of a cow mattress is “a soft warm cushion for your cows to lie on when in the cubicle”. By that definition, both the Mayo Mattress and the Mayo Original are cow mattresses with the main difference being that the Mayo Mattress is softer.
Question: Is the gap between the cow mats unhygienic? Answer:No. The Mayo Mattress range is supplied at the correct width to ensure that the gap is ALWAYS underneath the cow cubicle division. The important area for hygiene is directly underneath the cow’s udder. In tests, the Mayo Mattress range was shown to be the most hygienic surface as it is 100% non-absorbent and can never become absorbent even as it ages. This is due to the unique structure of the product. Of course, fitting them with the Mayo Strip will cover this gap and alleviate all concern on this front.
Question: Q: Do they compress and harden with time? Answer:No. The air content of the Mayo Mattress range is permanent. It can never be released and the amount of material used during manufacture is graded to prevent the air cells collapsing. It can sometimes be observed that the back edge of a mat can get thinner. This is true as there is no material to support the cells. However, even one inch into the mat the product will be the same original thickness. This is normal and has no impact on the mat’s performance.
