The revolutionary new "system horse bedding" consists of 3 parts.
(patent pending, GM)
Decking material - made from extremely durable and slip-resistant polyester. Highly liquid permeable.
Drainage grid - with protective fleece for the quick and unobstructed horizontal drainage of liquids.
Softbag (optional) - these are filled with soft straw. Changing the bedding is only necessary when the surface is no longer soft enough. This takes between 1.5 and 3 years.
Due to the unique arrangement of the covering, immediate drainage of urine is possible.
It is even possible to clean on-site with water without dismantling the area. However, there should be a drain or slope present.
If no drainage is available, a shavings or straw edge should be established.

How Meadow Assembly
The WieWiese Soft&Dry is simply screwed to the ground every 25 cm with the special stainless steel screws.
Screws are included. Wall plugs are not included.
Alternative:
You can also assemble a wooden frame all around and screw the covering onto the wooden frame.
Advantage: Only the wooden frame needs to be secured and a few holes need to be drilled.
For smaller areas up to 5x5m, securing the wooden frame to the ground may not be necessary.
Ensure that the timbers are sufficiently strong, minimum 5x8cm. The edge must be finished (rounded).

FAQ
Most important questions from our customers.
Doesn't the mat soak up urine and take on the smell of urine?
The majority of the urine flows through the WieWiese into the drainage below or to the edge of the mat into the bedding strip. The WieWiese does not allow any moisture or odour to pass through from below. There is virtually no residual moisture left on the WieWiese!
I imagine the cleaning to be quite elaborate?
Here, a simple sweeping is completely sufficient. However, by using a standard pressure washer, you can spray down the paddock once a year and really remove all bedding remnants within an hour. Afterwards, it will look like new! The paddock in my open stable has been in use for about 2 years and has never been cleaned, only swept. There are also no little creatures in it.
Would like to know if the horses don't slip on that?
Here, the exact opposite is the case. I know of no material that is more slip-resistant than the Wiewiese. Since the surface is screwed to the ground, it cannot slip. The top layer is absolutely tear-resistant and also suitable for driving on. However, when getting up and lying down, the material is much better than, for example, rubber mats, as the Wiewiese does not function like a brake lining but allows for 2-3 cm of movement. This enables the horse to get up and lie down comfortably.
My problem is that I cannot screw the flooring to the ground - clay soil! Is there still a way to use your mats?
Yes, that works. Either they make a wooden frame themselves using, for example, 5*8 timber, or they order the finished mat with a frame.
How high is the mat or the frame? Don't the horses trip over that?
The WieWiese Soft&Dry is only 12mm thick and tapers towards the edge. The soft bags are 5-10cm thick.
The mat with frame is only 25mm + Wiewiese Soft&Dry 12mm.
How large should the sleeping area be and
how big can I make this at most?
Horses with a height of 160cm - Mat size 2x2.8m or larger.
Horses 140-160 STM - Mat size 2x2.6m min.
Horses 120 - 140 STM - Mat size 2x2.4m min.
Horses under 120 STM - Mat size 2x2m min.
Maximum roll width is 5 m, maximum length is 30 m
